LKW's

Hattusas · Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2007 6:06 pm Post subject: LKW's

Hallo POC fans.
As far as I remember, LKW freight is on Bearsie's web site.I am using them in my RORO ships but I am a bit confused.

Lets say . Larissa- K carries 5500 cars and 1200 Trailers. I do believe RDK means that trailers are the ones the cars carry behind.(so the icon says it)

When I carry 1200 LKW's I don't think it is so realistic.On the other hand I like to carry LKW's.

Any suggestions about carrying LKW's in more realistic way?

I have reduced the trailer capacity of Larissa K to 500 and use Bearsies Trailer Freight too.

If you load the Larissa K with 1.200 20t Trailer / LKW and 5.000 cars she will sink, because of beeing overloaded.

RDK´s Trailer are crap! In shipping business trailers are 13.6 meters long 20t LKW Trailer and not small caravans.

I also use Bearsies loads for these, I have not found the real Larissa K (if there was one!) so I also had reduced the trailer capy down to 400.

the original trailer was apparently a camping trailer at 1,5 tons
to keep confusion to a minimum I went into my good file and changed that trailer to 22 tons and cars to 2.2 tons.
since at the time only The Larissa K existed I only had to reduce her capacity by the multiplier of these values for code 20 and code 21 (trailers) note that all my add on freights with code 21 are 22 tons ...
since there is only this one code we can use.
in the mean time, Stickymonk, Zootier and myself have essentially added a fleet of ferries, car carriers and Ro Ro vessels.
Must be past 20 ships by now but they are all set up to reflect that change in tonnage, at least as far as I know
The range on RoRo is from 2 000 tons to humoungous Laughing

the 2 original cargo's should be index 37 and index 38

To change these values we'd have to found a commitee and all that
and give Cornemo veto rights on Mafi's Wink
