Logistic Tower
When you assign a truck to a storage, i.e. a coal loose storage to keep it full, this truck can not do anythink else. So when the storage is full, the truck is idle. In my game, i have around 25 idle truck constantly because of that.
So, why not create a "Logistic tower" which you can assign trucks too. This tower can be linked to differeant building (storage, tank, assembly, etc ...). With its fleet of truck the tower can deserve multiple type of building.

DarkaiserHow about an alternate suggestion: The Logistics Tower would either have trucks assigned to it or it would have a radius it would cover. Any buildings in the radius would have trucks auto-assigned. I like the assigned trucks more because it's more in line with the way Mine Control Towers work. As a higher form of tech to research, the tower could control more trucks.

PTTG MergedHow is this different from the Advanced Logistics research, apart from needing an additional building?

reeper_aut Mergedthe difference is that you don't need to connect all storages in their own web
it's basically a segregated version of the general logistics network -

reeper_aut Mergedadvanced logistics doesn't allow for multi use trucks. you can only assign one truck to one building. if that building has no job the truck is idle.
the idea is that you can link, for example all the food storages to the town, and assign 5 trucks that do various tasks within that network while the rest can go and unload a dock or something -
