That’s not what they said. The game does work without mods, but the economy is weirdly nonsensical (AFAIK you can push unnecessary amounts of cargo over long distances, and the game rewards you anyway) and I personally find it kind of pointless, compared to something like Transport Fever 2.

You're right. I misread. I guess I need coffee.

Yeah cargodist's indeed broken. You could milk plenty amount of money by just setting up two airports far away.

Maybe try Simutrans. It's got actual economy simulation. I tried it and I didn't like it tho. I couldn't make a profit in that game and kept losing. :(

Wait... same like in real life you mean?

No. A coal plant will happily pay millions of dollars for coal hauled from the far side of the map, despite there being a coal mine right next door. Not like real life at all.
