I Need an explanation for this table
I don't know if this table will help but I have set up a Metro system but it is providing no income. What do each of the columns mean?

Yes, it would be nice to know what each column means.

@GmanUK1965,

Sure.

Transfer Offers
This section lists the offers being sent to the Transfer Manager by the current building. Think of this as the needs of the current building. ie If they have a dead body that needs collecting the building will put out a Dead offer. If its a commercial building and it needs goods to sell it will put out a Goods IN offer etc...

Fields
Material - The type of the offer, Dead, Sick, Goods, Oil...
IN/OUT - The direction of the offer. It's easiest to think of this with factories, the IN offers are the materials it needs to make the products and the OUT offer will be the product it makes and wants to sell.
Priority - Range from 0 (low priority) to 7 (high priority)
Active - Active is the side of the match that will send out the vehicle, Passive is the side of the match that will receive the vehicle.
Amount - The offer amount, how many of the material the building is willing to match with
Park - 0 for a global offer, >0 for a local pedestrian zone offer. Service buildings will only respond to offers that have a matching park number
Description - A description of the object making the offer. Eg. building, vehicle or citizen

Matches
This section lists the actual matches that the Transfer Manager has made for this building from its offers. There are always 2 offers to a match , an IN side and an OUT side. So each match line will also appear in the matching buildings list as well.

Additional Fields
Time - Local time of the match
d - Match distance (km)
P - IN priority / OUT Priority - Allows you to see the priority of both sides of the match.

Summary
So if everything is working normally, on this tab you should see an offer appear in the top section, and then at some time after this, hopefully the offer should disappear and a match will appear in the bottom section for that offer.

Note, however that if the offer disappears but no match appears, it does not necessarily mean something is going wrong. If for example the priority (P:) is low then the offer may not get a match. The Transfer Manager tries to prioritise higher priority offers. In general a match will only be allowed if the combined priority of the IN and the OUT offers is 2+ (ie. 0/2, 2/0 or 1/1 or better)

I haven't found any info on this, but what the colors mean when a building is selected?

@8itch,

If you hover your mouse over the House icon on the building panel, there is a tooltip for the colors depending on the highlight mode.

Oop, that's embarrassingly simple. Thanks :steamthumbsup:

So, I'm totally new to the industry DLC, and I saw this as an option for management. Long story short, after reading all of this, and your explanation, I am still stuck on how to get the planes/trains involved, to limit the traffic flow of the import/export ground option. I don't want my trucks to leave the industry zones for any exporting at all, but I want to make sure they are getting it to the warehouses which I zoned for it to take place. I have an import zone and and export zone fully equipped with warehouses, strictly for just that , with the train stations and airport (vanilla cargo airport, not DLC version) already available and waiting. Although, your features don't explain how to make this possible.

Therefore, can you please help me understand how to do this? Thanks!:steamthumbsup:
