THank you for you suggestions.

Many factories (like open pit ore mine) in pak128 are already too big producers for their consumers (steel mill) Also expanding factories will overwhelm many connections with time. It seems you almost selected all factories. It there a reason for which to expand?

Once there was the philosophy that a working chain should keep working and the expansion of factories would create enough challenge. That of course, did not fully worked out. Moreover, Simutrans handled expanding factories very badly when trying to estimate if it needs more suppliers. Especially if sources expand.

My personal feeling is that the consumers profit most from expansion, especially single consumers like the gas station, the drug store, the car dealer or the chains where the sources expand anyway due to fields (saw mill, flour, ...) Thus I would suggest to not expand too much the inner factories connected to the ore mines, steel mills, concrete factories, car factory, power stations, etc. The only exception is expansion of the coal mines, since pak128 deliberately creates too little of them. Maybe also an expansion of oil riggs, since extra ships are quick to add.

I would like to hear your ideas to it. Or maybe on the forum, where other people can contribute their ideas too.
