|
|
|
For certain industries, players can creat their own custom products
|
2017-10-20 23:59:54 +02:00
|
|
|
Essentially, these are just things you give a certain name to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Products have certain properties that affect how well they sell. These properties
|
|
|
|
|
are just numbers. For each Industry, only some of these properties are applicable
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g. Performance isnt applicable for food industry)
|
|
|
|
|
Demand: Determined by industry. For most industries this will slowly decrease over time, meaning
|
|
|
|
|
that you must create new and better products to remain successful. The speed at which this
|
|
|
|
|
decreases over time is dependent on industry
|
|
|
|
|
Competition: Determined by industry
|
|
|

Scientific Research affects the properties of products
|
|
|
|
|
Materials:
|
|
|
|
|
To create Products, you need materials. There are different tiers of Materials
|
|
|
|
|
Materials have several properties that determine how profitable they can be:
|
|
|
|
|
Quality:
|
|
|
|
|
Demand:
|
|
|
|
|
Competition:
|
|
