Hi, I'm new to eco and the community and I was wondering if specific vehicle neiches would ever be filled in eco, such as but not limited to, trains/minecarts, barges/boats/ships, and small scale aircraft.
While me and my friends are playing we keep on wishing we had something like a minecarts, where we could spend extra resources on rails, locomotives, and hoppers(as well as a pollution cost from the engine), in exchange for higher weight capacity, not having to deal with going around corners with the carts, and higher capacity per trip into the mine. Trains in general would be fantastic, being able to move large amounts of materials around the map quickly and efficiently.
Boats would of course finally give use to rivers and oceans besides food and power production. As well as being good for transporting people, recourses, and exploring, boats could also maybe be used to fish off of in the ocean and lakes.
Aircraft is kind of a stretch, but it would make scouting land 1000x easier, and as a late game transportation system. I'm not talking about huge helicopters and airplanes or anything, but maybe starting with a small gyrocopter or ultralights then moving up to maybe something Cessna like and some sort of smallish helicopter.
Those were just my ideas on how these vehicles could work though, and my original question still stands: Are any of these vehicle types planned? If so, when can we expect them? And if not, why?
Thank you for coming to my TED talk
