A few tweaks with the ingredients for a product

[Guest]

Lots of products aren't profitable any more.

That is because of the ridiculous production costs.

I think there should be some huge changes with food, steel and advertisements.

Then there would be much more variety in Kapilands!

What do you think?

I think increase the demand and the price people are willing to pay (NPC's that is) and that will raise supply hopefully when people see they can shift milk for 250caps each

I don't mean by that much.

I do

That way the first maverick into milk would go WOW MONEY :O

Then as more people joined and there was a higher supply the price would drop... and so all things level out

Cmon think about it IF there was a country with 1L of milk left epople would pay LOADS for it if it kept them alive and there was nothing else... But if there were 2L then they would pay a bit less... 1000L and they would pay still a hell of a lot but les than before and when they reach say 200,000,000L of milk the price would be average of if the country had less people than that would drop

I think you should just not produce those products and price will go up eventually.
And when it doesn't, just buy it at the market when you need it


To many people complain products are to cheap or to expensive, yet they either keep producing it when its cheap or they refuce starting to produce it when to expensive but rather complain in here.


How about doing the thing you should do in any real life business ???
Adapt to the facts of the market.

Just think, why did so many certain factories disappear in your own town?
Over here we had Fokker who build planes for many years, but nowadays they don't exist anymore cuz they just couldn't make a profit.
Phillips quit the chip production and sold NXP, cuz they knew it wouldn't make them any profit anymore.

Things happen in real life, so why not in this game???

Well the market ofcourse is all of us.
Meaning if things must change one way or another WE much change it I guess.
But since people have totally different goals interests and motivations that will be difficult/impossible.
One wants price for a certain product going up the other wants it going down.
Still it is interesting to try and change something and see how it works out.
I would be happy to see food products be more profitable, but like stated by others in another post, that would take lowering water and corn prices to begin with, and even that seems to be too big of a task.

i see your point but..

if its too cheap you get the south american problem..they keep supplying coffee..price drops, produce more to get some profit, get lower, new guy on the market, will go lower aswell

on high stuff, like cars, there aint none, cuz thats expensive and to keep it expensive you csnt just throw 10.000 cars a day on it for 50.000, then the others would be placed out or drop too...wont work

let the ''invivible hand'' (our brains) do the jon and dont copmplain

btw fokker is 1 mile walking from where i live l)

I see what you mean.

Hmmm, I could try doing that do the Realm 2 milk market...
