When he said that, I was watching one of the trucks taking over three days of loading oil. Time definitely runs far too fast
Please do dedicated crude - refinery lines, since you need 2 crude to produce one oil so your entire supply chain isn't really effecient right now.

Inefficiency is Squirrel‘s trademark. I cringed the moment he set the trucks to go the full route … after he explained that 2 crude produce 1 oil. Squirrel: „Oh well, let‘s buy more trucks.“
I love this kind of tutorial series. Running a normal game, but taking a few extra seconds per decision to explain what things do. Only way I can learn!
Aww, i wish these episodes were longer... Games like this really benefit from long-form videos/streams. EDIT: *checks SquirrelPlus* Ah, you HAVE streamed it...
Wish this was like netflix to binge one ep after the other. Can we take a moment for my 2010 laptop with an i5 3rd gen trying to play this haha!

Haven’t played myself yet but I’m thinking that you’re spending a lot of time transporting less than what’s produced upstream of the refinery is because the refinery consumes 2 crude for each refined, so you’d need another crude source. Waiting trucks upstream just delays the time to get more crude into the refinery.

I know i'm late my answer but i started to play the game few days ago. I think need 2 lines. One is transport ing crude oil and then back fuel to town. The second line is oil to the fuel. If not another crude line you what you wrote is i think more efficent. If in the first line 2x more truck than the second you delivering the same amount than the second line can with oil. So you waste less with the maintance cost. (only free ride between the town and the crude oil factory and not ever second truck from oil to crude oil factory.)
I like the slow and steady start. I'd suggest separating the crude -> refinery and refinery -> fuel -> town lines since you need double the crude. It's obviously a bit less efficient since both routes will have an empty leg, but I have a feeling that overall, it might be more efficient? But since the Loughton area is getting revamped, might be a moot point.
I've got 80 hours into TF1 and I'm still learning from this, thank you for doing the series.

I never played this game, watched a few KZread videos from it and I'm gonna buy it now. Will stay in my room for the next month please send some pizza or i will starve i think. Marathon begins 🍕
I have watched some of your videos on Rail Route and am now starting on this series, as I have and have played both. Your explanations are absolutely top, crystal clear, focusing on the things you need to know at that moment. Impressive, and you are helping a lot of people a lot. Thank you so much, and may your η always be as excellent as your videos.
Perhaps a dedicated train for crude would be a better solution and repurpose those trucks onto the final delivery and oil to fuel, I generally have a dedicated crude line due to the 2:1 ratio. Watching your videos on TF1 is what got me into the game, loving this series!
Love your videos been watching them for 5 years now. Thanks for the amazing content. Hope you’re doing well.
Great mixture of entertainment and tutorial. Thank you.
Hi squirrel, i love your videos and will definitely stick around for some more time. I have a small tip for you for the first oil route that you set up last episode, you could make your line more efficient and profitable by splitting it into two seperate lines. Because the oil refinery has a two to one ratio, half of the wagons to the fuel factory are empty both ways. For excample: Line 1: from A (the oil well) to B (the oil refinery) to D (the town). Line 2: from B to C (the fuel factory) The crude oil gets shipped with line 1 from A to B, the refined oil gets shipped with line 2 from B to C where the oil gets turned into fuel, the fuel gets shipped with line 2 back to B where it drops off the fuel and line 1 picks up the fuel to ship it to D.

@@SuperAd1980 no, because there is a two to one ratio on the oil refinery. There are twice the amount of trucks from B to C and back to B, so you loose quite a lot of profit there…

Learnt some new tip and tricks while watching first two episodes thankyou can't wait for the other episodes.
You van use the mod DMA stations, they have the perfect preset building so that your trucks dont do weird stuff in the station and everything about this mod is perfect!
Just started the series with you and I've bought the game. From what I've seen so far you have earned a subscriber out of me,I've enjoyed how you have been talking through how to do things and how to process certain items.
Nicely done! Thank you.
Thank you Squirrel fot this tutorial videos, you are the reason why I bought this game, thank you I'm loving it
I've never tried a transport game. This look really fun so will check it out. Thank you for the series.
05:00 OMG Thank you so much for showing this. I've been trying to look on how to fix this problem I had. Trucks were picking up other items and bringing them to my depots and not picking up what I wanted them to. Once you get into 4-6 needed items for the city, it can get hectic. I kept having random fuel shipped all around, even back to my tool factory depot when it wasn't connected to anything but there was a city close by that requested fuel but I had no lines running to that city. This fixed it all though and ty.
ohhh nice I like the one way truck stops. Feels like there are a few more options that might be mods or maybe a new version since I last played. I didn't even know you could make the platforms longer, just more of them, and every time I tried to add street entrances, the trucks all seemed to manage to get in each other's way anyway. But that config of yours looks great!
These videos are freaking great! Really fun to listen to your reasoning 👌

I think your crude oil line is messed up...it picks up and takes a full truck to pickup from another crude oil depot, but it's full already before going to the fuel refinery. Maybe it drops crude and picks up crude, but the transfer is null. Can't wait for more Squirrel TF2!!
This is great. I've been watching to see if this game is something I want to buy but I'm stuck because I want to play along with this game but also want to view a few more videos to decide if I want to play the game.
8:00 FYI, trucks always load/unload from the right so make sure they enter from the right. So in this case if the trucks were coming from the left they would drive passed the stop. I didn't realise trucks unloaded/loaded from the right and placed my entrance on the opposite side so they had to turn around in the stop.

This game makes Chris Sawyer proud. Great game.
This game looks like a blast. I can’t wait to get a new pc built so I can play
I’d split the first line you made, as many viewers say, crude to oil ratio is 2:1. One line would take oil(stop#2), bring it to #3 and take gas back to #2.. the other line sould take crude (#1) and bring it to #2.. then load any available gas there and unload at town in his way back to #1. That way you can set the ratios right with the number of vehicules on each lines and all fuel will be unloaded to town.
The best channel on youtube.
You totally got a new sub, great content, great voice, just quality content all round... getting to be a rare thing here on the KZread.

It was weird when the bulldozer didn't make its usual noise lol. Ooh weeeeee!
I just realized: He's literally Rockefeller 2.0
Bit like snow runner without the hard work 🤣 been promoted to supervisor after all that hard trucking.
Some points :) Couldn't find the list of mods from the G-sheet you shared :) Brilliant truck stop configuration ! I really didn't like how the trucks has to always make a U-turn :)\Thank you
Nice 🍾🥂
It does make a difference which side you place next to the road so the trucks will not make a U-turn inside the station.
Are all items produced at the same speed? I see that it takes 2 crude to make 1 oil, so obviously it'd be better to have twice as many trucks transporting crude as transporting oil, but given that the required resources are available, do you produce 1 crude in the same time you produce 1 oil?
Almost through the entire series; when you talk about 'wait times' is that real time? so when you talk about intervals and wait times.. thats an actual 2 minutes? Seems like a simple question and it seems that it is but just confirming lol. Love the channel, just picked up the game and started and just subscribed :)
I found 3 other Mods in the Workshop on Steam that new players differently need: 1: The UNDO Button. Saves so much time. 2: Rail Tracks X'ing. Yes someone made this, so the rest of us can save time. 3: Free landscaping. I know it might be considered cheating by some, but I feel like it saves time and makes the game so much better. And you can sculpt your environment from the beginning of the game. I hope this helps new players...
@Squirrel wouldn't it be more efficient if you set separate lines for each stop so you can allocate more trucks for the crude oil to help handle the supply/demand issues and then add trucks as needed to the other stops as supply increases? At least on the setup for the first line you made.
Second Ep. watching you and I am convinced you are Ralf Little
The separation of entrance and exit sounds awesome in theory but is sorta crap in practice The largest problem is it makes expansion more of a headache in the future, and still does not really help traffic jams if the path is daisy chained to other producta
You should use ships for crude to redinery, should work
I'm not finished watching yet but I would put a short line railroad from Loughton crude to refinery only, then sell and/or repurpose the trucks and expand delivery to the other city as well with them.
You know given that the game starts in 1900, I would pay to see a DLC that adds military industry where you can supply forts with equipment that they send out, so that you don't have to actually make units and what not, just supplying them with equipment. And maybe during the world wars there's a chance for debuffs to simulate the effects of the war time effort, maybe more stress on your lines..
I wish I'd bought this during the summer sale, but I've been not playing games very much lately... Even at half price I thought it was too much for me considering I'd only turned my computer on for about an hour a week for some months at that stage. And mostly that wasn't for games.
Hello Squirrel! Just a few things. Do you ever change the maintainence settings on your vehicles? Also, you recommend buying faster vehicles, but aren't vehicle speeds also limited to the speed of the road/streets they are driving on? Getting some great tips from your videos. As always, I appreciate the family friendly content of your channels. Cheers!
I have a set up that works wonders. Drop off before reaching a truck stop
I really like your content, a few suggestion if you dont mind.. not everyone is new to the game.. would be nice if you point out the tricks and pro tips more.. thanks for your content.. i enjoyed it .
I'm interested in the cargo side, but I'm wondering the ratio's pictured at industries don't seem to be what's pictured (1:1 or 2:1 input to output) especially as the industries 'level up'. Could you shed some light on this?
At Romsey South you’d be better off putting the yard on the other side of the road so the majority of your trucks aren’t turning across oncoming traffic.
When a truck station is only serving one line, you don't need two rows of platforms. The second row will never be used, unless you add a second line sending oil somewhere else. But if it's only one type of cargo going out, you could have more than one line taking that cargo from the same platform. There will be traffic, though, so I usually go one platform per line.
my god i remamber in 2013-14 when you played euro truck sim2 i got into this type of game because of you lol where did the time go
Hi thanks for shareing your mods, i love autosignal, just haveing a little trouble with the dual track mod, sometimes it lays parell track most times it doesnt just a single track what am i doing wrong is there a trick to it?
Never Heard of this game before but sorta reminds me of soviet republic workers and recourses
Nice but I would have made bypass roads for the industry and towns to keep the flow rate of traffic higher.
Frequency doesnt matter for cargo its only important for passangers since they are only willing to travel as far as they could reach in like 15-20 mins and when your frequency is to high they simply wont travel as far.

love your Vod's, but think you missed a stop on the new oil line. Shouldn't the full trucks from left oil well to stop at the refinery cargo depo before carrying on to 2nd oil well ?, your current line goes past straight to 2nd oil well and only stops to unload on the way back.
@xZise

I think you have a misunderstanding about the factories there: The "left oil well" is generating crude oil, while the right one is a oil refinery converting the crude oil into oil (if you look at the symbols it is only a barrel at the oil well and a barrel with an arrow pointing to a droplet at the oil refinery). And then the oil can be converted into fuel at the other refinery. If you look at the original line it also had two "stop overs".

Dude these cities look cute (since the series finshed i came back a few ep's to look at them)
The problem I'm having with a truck station is, I have 2 lines using 1 station, both carrying the same resource but to different places, however the factory is automatically earmarking 95% of the produce for customer A and 5% for B, I have 1 truck to the customer A which is more than meeting that customer's requirements, then I have 10 trucks on the other line with 8 of them running empty because they will not pick up the excess goods earmarked for customer A. I tried switching Customer A's deliveries to the other side of the station but all the goods immediately jumped to that side still leaving customer B with nothing. What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to set all factory output for whichever truck turns up 1st?
I can understand why you would want to start another line on a different city, but wouldnt you want to start an agricultural line to bring bread /food into the city to help it grow faster? Thereby creating a larger market for both bread, and fuel?
Can anyone answer ... is there a mod being applied on the cities that make them more square shaped and not so spoke n wheel shaped like in TF1? I always hated that in TF1, that all the cities develop like that all the time, and there's no randomness to it. (Maybe that's just me, living on the prairies where cities have no geographical impediments :)
Can anyone help me with this question? When he slows the time down to 1/2 speed, do the profits slow down too so you're waiting twice as long to make money?
