![]() None the less, I will add an expansion ticket that will allow you to pay extra shipping costs to send the vehicles to other factories. By the time you're large enough to need regional restrictions, you're doing yourself a disservice using the outsourcing system.Īlso you're not paying expenses having the vehicles shipped to far off factories, which is why they all go to your HQ/First Factory. Typically the outsource system isn't paired with autoproduction and regional restrictions. The game automatically ships them to your HQ or "first" (oldest) factory. There isn't a way to tell the game where to ship outsourced units to. Is there a way to tell the game that the cars should be delivered to a different town? Now that I activated 'only sell in same continent', I have a problem: The cars get delivered to New York, but almost all are sold in Europe now none are sold there. ![]() I purchase cars from a different company to sell them under my own marque. Although if unless you plan on managing parts of your company as a regional marque, you're better off just using the "Restrict Shipping To the Same Continent" option so that Asian Factories only produce vehicles for Asia, and Europe factories only produce vehicles for Europe. ![]() You can trim out existing models to new brands. Change the marque in that drop down.Īnd then it would be helpful, if I could assign the same car to different brands because otherwise the Microcars (or other types, of course) could only be produced and sold in Asia. In the View Panel (which is the default panel) there is a drop down labeled "Assign Factory Ownership" or something of the sort. Select a city/territory on the world map. (Note, do not use the quick trim option.) You can make a new trim of a model, then change the marque on the final step of the designer. You can not change the brand of an existing vehicle model. So how do I assign an already existing car to a brand? Separating Microcars from your brands that make sports cars for instance is a good idea though. There would be no need to use regional marques and "Limit Production to Owner Marque" in this case unless you plan on managing sell prices for those marques regionally. If you just use "Restrict Shipping To the Same Continent", it will limit production of your microcars to the regions with demand. You could also use the districting system if the Auto-production and Auto-Sell systems do not please you.Ī solution seems to be to assign the Microcars to a separate brand, assign the Microcars to that marque, assign the marque to a factory in Asia and activate 'Limit production to owner marque' and 'Restrict shipping to the same continent'. But when in doubt, this is a good rule to follow.My company now has a few factories and lot of car models, so I need auto-produce and auto-sell to reduce micromanagement. There are exceptions, depending on the vehicle type and the year you're in. And the majority of the population is willing to spend less than the per capita income on a new vehicle.Īs a rule of thumb, you should not sell a vehicle for more than 5x per capita. Nearly the entire purchasing population falls within 5 times the per capita. While you can't see it without creating a vehicle, the wealth demographics chart shows the distribution of buyers based on income. The editable parts of the game are broken down into two systems. Before v1.22 comes out the mod tools are a use and learn at your own risk type deal. ![]() This is not really meant to be comprehensive or anything. ![]() That translates into greater sales or higher amounts you can charge. More detailed tutorials will come after I implement the official Gearcity wiki page. The more wealthy a city is, the higher the purchasing power of the population. Per capita, on the other hand, is the average income for the population of the city. There are additional factors that affect potential customers, but the population value is a great indicator. More people in a city means that there will be more potential customers in that city. The population almost directly corresponds to the number of people interested in buying a vehicle. Or using the district information window if you are selling to a broader area. You can get both of these data points using the city information window. The two most important pieces of information are the population and the per capita. The first thing you need to do is know where you're going to sell your vehicle and some information about that market. ![]()
