FlexPort v1.1.3 BETA

FlexPort: Flexible Industries import/export port You can export any cargo here, and import any other cargo you may need. However, it will not do straight alchemy, you need to have some activity at the dock: transport any surplus cargo to the FlexPort it will be turned into "FlexPort Credits" you need to transport these credits from one terminal to another, using either trucks or trains (modified trucks and wagons are provided that can carry only credits) once the FlexPort credits have been delivered to another terminal they will be converted into the cargo type you need for import. There are lots of terminals in the FlexPort: 4x mainline rail terminals (import/export cargo to/from the rest of your network) 10x pier rail terminals (inter-terminal credit transfer) 6x pier truck terminals (inter-terminal credit transfer) 6x ship terminals (import/export cargo to/from the rest of your network) * 2x bus stops (you could for example specify one as "unload only" to have more people walking around the terminal) The FlexPort is physically large (512m x 256m), approximately 8x the size of a normal industry. Can optionally also be placed as land-only version (without ship piers). Can optionally also behave as a simple rail/truck(/ship) cargo station without any alchemy. Overview of the commerce process: FlexPort accepts all (vanilla) cargo types and "sells" them to the export market, giving you "FlexPort Credits", a special cargo type that is only of use in a FlexPort. When you need any type of cargo to transport to your city, the FlexPort will take those credits and "buy" the goods you need: https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/954105271812482101/4EF09F434ABFA38BBD0460492C6903292545FBFF/ It would of course be much easier to simply "alchemy" one type of cargo into another type, but having FlexPort Credits means you need to have either trains or trucks running around the port transporting credits from one terminal to another. You could also set up two Flex
