Every time I modify a industry it looses it's connection to the station. I then have to demolish and rebuild the station to reestablish the connection!

true , this mod is crashing indeed , to bad cuz its an amazing mod , i saw Skye Storme using this in his lets play

it crashed the game when it was loading

can u post the instructions please ?

Hey could you post a tutorial video on how to create an industry and how to perform switching of this industry?

@n.chiri It doesnt generate the cargo like the cargo nenerator mod, thats a whole another thing. This mod actually adds new cargo and industries to the game, Ny only problem with it so far is the fickeness of the industry to produce certain goods. It produces too much mail but i have lots of problems with the wood > wood powder/planks > paper/goods. The powder ends up accumulating in the sawmill and despite my best efforts to get it out of there and used the sawmill's stock of powder piles up and the trucks/train just wont pick it up even with more than one industry needing it and also despite me using cargo magnet to try and get things flowing.

Does this work like the cargo generator mod? In the sense that techically "spawns" cargo out of nowhere. I'm aiming to run mile-long trains full of cargo, but the mod I mentioned earlier only fills less than half of my train's lenght.

Don't load it at the start of a game.

its not working. i have a error

@CashonWheels Are you building new Industry in? Like: Power and co.

@CashonWheels Thanks man ! Its fixed on my end ! Thanks a lot ! Keep up the good work ! Cheers !

@CashonWheels Thanks man ! Will test it right now and BRB with the result ! Cheers !

I this Fixed earlier but it was apparently not saved!!!

Got the same error
res/construction/industry/Freestyle_IND_4_stocks.con: ...474/res/construction/industry/Freestyle_IND_4_stocks.con:116: ')' expected near '?'

@CashonWheels Tried your "save without mod then load activating the mod" and i got this error now:

error in file E:/Big Games/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/446800/1756164474/res/construction/industry/Freestyle_IND_4_stocks.con: ...474/res/construction/industry/Freestyle_IND_4_stocks.con:116: ')' expected near '?'

Any ideas ?

Thanks for your time !

@cash

thanks a million...cant wait to set up my custom industries...this is going to look so good...:D

@CashonWheels Allright man, will try that solution for the time being to get things going. I noticed that too on another save i already had the mod was working without problems, but when i went to start a new one it crashes ... Go figure lol

Thanks for taking a look at it ! Cheers !

@ zerghnandus Weird, That is a new crash I just ran into myself. Even if FSI is the only mod active at the start of a new game I will still get that crash! The only way around it is to load Freestyle industry after the first save.

@fahd.ahm The only way to do that is to start a new game with the mod "industry unlocker" AND without Freestyle Industry loaded. Then save the game and reload it with Freestyle Industries.
Then one by one Unlock & delete the game's default industry and replace it with a freestyle Industry.

Wonderfull mod mate ! One problem though. It seems to not agree with Urban Games "no cost" Mod. If both are active it throws this error:

res/models/model/industry/machines_factory/Machines_factory_truck_station.mdl not in file cache!
error: error: ...4474/res/construction/industry/Freestyle_IND_1_stock.con:99: attempt to perform arithmetic on field 'freight' (a nil value)

Any possibility of a fix for it?

Cheers !

i dont know if it is possible...can the mod be used to reset all industries on the map to just stockpiles??

also, i noticed that it changes the industries on the map seed i use...iron mines become brick works, farms become quarries, etc, etc....can this be worked around or not??

btw....great mod...i think it should be a standard feature on the TF2.

@ aggro-58-- His game crashed

Go to steam --> steamapps -> common -> workshop -> content-> 446800->1756164474-> back up folder

Find the files old_freestyle_IND and move them to the desktop. Remove the old_ part off of the files. Go to 1756164474 ->res ->construction->industry-> and move those files out of the way. Now move the files on the desktop there. Now you should be able to run your save game.

To get the newer version running in the save game, delete all your freestyle industry in the game. and then go back to 1756164474 ->res ->construction->industry-> and replace the old files with the new files.

There was no crash on my save game that had the older version and went to the new version. or a new game I just started. If you do nave Industry DLC enabled and you click on an Industry DLC cargo it will crash the game.

Funktioniert leider nicht mehr seit aktualiesierung.
Spiel stürzt ab sowohl alte Spielstände sowie neu gestartete Spiele
Bitte um Behebung da sonst sehr guter Mod

Hey just wanted to mention that in both IND_3 and IND_4 there is a comma after the end bracket on line 12. Both work once the comma is gone

I have a destinct feeling Slim Gaming & Colonel Failure are going to embrace this.
Looks fantastic, and a splendid idea.

Question: Why don't you contact the developers in TF2 so it might be implemented you might get money feedback for the idea. Or it might allready be implemented, thus making your work redundant in 6 months time.

I see more and more are using TF as a model-railway more than stategy-gaming. I myself like both and this is fantastic, but might be to complicated as per now for the average user.

@ FloppyDolphins

Right now with notepad++ and reading the instructions. But due to its popularity I've started working on a menu for the mod.

How exactly doe this work?

@Carpetbeater Everyone has a different playstyle. I now only play games with no cost and maps without random or pre-placed industry.

Looks great but the random seed of industries on the map was big part of game. Trying to work out how to get something from a to b and then product from x to y was the strategy problem or puzzle of the game.

Hello and thanks for your work.
I am not sure if i am using this properly. place the industry next to a cargo depo, but no goods go to the different lines so I can not move them to other factories. AM I doing anything wrong?

Thank You guys

Assume Recepies is actually Recipes, in other words a mixture of items etc. Otherwise, it's unclear!

Could this be because vehicles and paper are not original transport fever but new industries

can this be used to make mod_vehiclescargo with steel following the instructions

Mega Geil gute arbeit finde das ist einer der Besten Mods bis her.

Dieser Mod sieht richtig toll aus. Sehr gute Idee. :D
Ich hoffe, dass diese Mod auf Platz 1 kommt. :D

@CashonWheels

Looks like I was a bit too fast and didn't read the instructions.
It all works out.
My bad.
Also a suggestion;
It's a bit annoying pause everytime you want to put another industry on the map.
It can be more convenient to add the choice of industry INGAME.
Maybe something to work out?

Great idea!
Encountered the same issue as Sterben: crude oil only.

very clear instructions in the folder , could you just output vehicles without input steel or do you need to create the chain please

@Sterben

Right now you need to open the files manually with notepad++ or other programs. Once you open the mod folder 1756164474 there is a text document that says "instructions."

I would like to by pass the Notepad++ and just use the industry setting menu. But that would require me to script a full Harry Potter novel!

EAT1963 has a safe import export mod on transportfever.net that has the scripting I want to use but I just pushed this out to get on with other mods.

thanks for the update

I found some issues;
1-stack industry: only crude oil
2-stack industry: from crude oil DIRECTLY to fuel(not crude-refined)

@davidrussell52 I've missed a link and have now updated the description.
steamapps > WORKSHOP > content

thanx

@TheMasterNerd No Industry DLC is not required.

This doesnt require Industry DLC does it? It mentions it but not sure if it depends on it. Excellent work, this was much needed on my detail map

steam > steamapps > content > 446800 > 1756164474 > res > construction > on my setup this does not have a steamapps>content folder, so I cannot get into the setup to change anything.
