Welcome to Transporter Tycoon.

The aim of the game is to build up your transport network, and become a tycoon. You gain your income through the purchase of a range of vehicles, then load the vehicles, and move goods (or passengers) around the fictional county of Coveshire.

Vehicle Purchases

Buy

Cargo: 10
Fuel: 25
Price: 500 cr
Small Van (General Goods)

Initially, you will need to purchase a small van (as that is all that you will be able to afford with the small bank loan you have been given) and start to haul cargo. Once you build up your wealth, you will be able to buy more vehicles, and hire more drivers, and increase your fleet.

Once you have a vehicle, and have hired a driver to drive it, you can then start to transport your cargo. You will be offered jobs based upon your vehicle size, and the amount of fuel it can hold. The larger the cargo capacity, and the more fuel you can hold, the further you can travel. As time goes on you can buy motorcycles (that carry less but travel faster) or trucks, that carry more but travel slower. It's entirely up to you how you manage your fleet.

Fleet Management

Once you have loaded your vehicle, and set it on it's way, you will be presented with a display like this one for each of your vehicles. This will show you details on the vehicle and the driver, including the cargo and fuel status, the condition of the vehicle, the current destination (where it is heading) how much the job will pay on arrival, and the amount of time left before the vehicle arrives. You will get payment for the job at the time the vehicle arrives. Make sure you keep your vehicles repaired otherwise you may get a breakdown that will seriously hamper your progress.
