Simutrans can have buses trucks trains trams ships airplanes monorails maglevs and any other vehicle that goes through air land or water. Choose them wisely and transport the immense variety of cargo each pakset has to offer from passengers and mail to raw materials and consumer products.Dynamic and IntelligentCargo has DestinationsSimutrans citizens and products dont simply jump in your vehicles and go to wherever you send them. They actually have individual destinations: people want to check out attractions go shopping or visit friends. Products also have their destinations - factories have contracts with each other and they wont sell or buy from anyone else. If you dont give them the possibility to go where they want they simply wont use your transport company.Complete the ChainTransporting products not only gives you money but makes the economy roll. As you transport products between factories they start producing and selling. Every factory receiving the materials it needs starts producing new goods letting you connect more and more factories across the region.Influencing CitiesYour transportation affects city growth. Every unit of anything you transport will affect the nearby cities making them grow and prosper. Sometimes cities will create new attractions and places of interest which attract a lot more passengers. Or maybe your service may attract new industries that give you even more opportunities. But not everything you do leads to good things - as cities grow more cars are on the roads and you will end up trying to deal with the traffic. What you do shapes the future.Control and CustomizeConfigure All or NothingSimutrans has a lot of configurations that you can customize. If youre not a customization freak dont worry generally with a few options Simutrans will fit your play style.
