About this game
Transporter is the next step in the classic transport sim genre. Modern transport game with classic, old-school grid environment, and newest features and options. Combining realistic simulation with indie style to create a game that is easy to pick up and get into, but with enough depth and variety to remain interesting and satisfying for experienced transport sim players.
RAIL, ROAD AND WATER
Create new transport routes on rail, road and water. Stock industries with raw materials. Drive the production and economy. Deliver materials and cargo to consumers. Supply power plants to generate electricity. Watch cities grow, deliver their passengers across large maps, and build your own transport company.
ULTIMATE MODERN LOGISTICS
Utilize the latest technological advancements, like maglev trains, experimental hydrogen-powered locomotives, and electric autonomous vehicles to transport your cargo.
Dive into new features, like unique station types and cargo refrigeration, or create fully functional rail switching yards, customizable multi-trailer truck rigs with different trailers, or river barges with up to 9 different barges.
Combine all types of transport to create the most efficient transport infrastructure and build your perfect transport world.
Transporter offers more transport options than any other game. From simply letting the game automatically decide what cargo to transport based on vehicle route, detailed orders for each destination, to micromanaging orders for each individual car.
PASSENGER TRANSPORT REIMAGINED
Did you ever feel passenger transport options in other transport sim games were a bit lacking, compared to the plethora of options given to cargo transport? Then fret not, because Transporter is here to change that.
Using a destination-based system, intercity passengers spawn separately for each city. It will require the creation of robust transport networks to connect every town. You can also easily create specific lines for each destination, create passenger transfer stations, or let the system decide automatically.
Passenger trains can also transport new baggage cargo alongside passengers and utilize special railcar types, like sleepers, cafés, and diners for long-distance transport.
UNPARALLELED VARIETY
Transporter comes with over 70 different industries and over 50 types of cargo to transport (and more to come). From farms and mines to modern industries, like Material Recovery Facility that process recyclables or Electric Arc Furnace, which require electricity to turn scrap metal into steel, this variety ensures each new game offers new challenges to overcome.
Whether you decide to transport passengers with high-speed trains, transform raw materials into solar panels for a new solar farm, or deliver pharmaceutical material to a local hospital is up to you.

0.5.6. Update
Dynamic Industry SpawnIndustry spawning is now fully dynamic, with each industry spawned based on existing dependencies. This should ensure there are no industries left without any input or output.Each map prioritizes spawning at least 1 consumer goods industry and 1 food industry. The rest is randomized.This applies to end industries, such as gas stations or hospitals as well. But not to city commercial buildings. Those can still spawn without any input on the map.Reorder Switching ChangesNew Reorder setting was added to rail switching. Apart from setting which elements to add/remove at a station, Reorder now lets you set a specific train configuration to switch to. This can be used to ensure train only picks up a certain maximum number of cars, or to simply change car order in the station. *Reorder still requires available switching track, even if no train elements are left at the station.Base vehicle categories were also added to rail switching options, so train can switch cars based on generic type (hopper,boxcar,etc.), not just a specific car. It is now also possible to switch the main locomotive.Smaller ChangesFew changes were made to the new ResponsiveUI, and a bunch of new world UI elements were added. Mainly new hover widgets and station interaction widgets.There were also minor rendering changes related to performance, shadow optimization, and reducing ghosting issues.FixesFixed few issues from previous industry update causing errors.Fixed few issues with train switching cars with different size variants.Fixed deleting depot while vehicle is leaving.Fixed ResponsiveUI tab switching when game is paused.Fixed train path prioritizing secondary tracks and properly ignoring switching tracks.Fixed duplicates in vehicle cargo list and showing wrong capacity for vehicle with no capacity.Fixed passenger Automatic order route detection when they are picked up from a transfer station.Depot window vehicle highlight that shows what cargo vehicle can carry now shows onl...Read full article on Community Announcements (Shattered Mirror Studio)
