Transport Fever 3 Industry Boosters — Workers, Fertilizer, Machines & Tools
Worker arrivals can increase industrial throughput. Fertilizer, Machines and Tools are optional cargo boosters with industry-specific mappings; bonus percentages remain Unknown.
Worker booster
Each industry can benefit from frequent, sufficient worker arrivals through passenger connections. Recent insufficient arrivals stop the effect. Inspect actual arrivals instead of treating one station or empty service as an active booster.
Cargo boosters
Raw and selected production industries use optional booster cargo. The effect stops when insufficient booster items remain in input stock. Required recipe inputs and optional cargo boosters are separate concepts; a missing boost is not proof that every basic recipe must stop.
Current industry-table mapping
Fertilizer: Cotton Farm, Crop Farm, Rubber Farm. Machines: Furniture Factory, Livestock Farm, Oil Well, Sand Excavator. Tools: Clay Pit, Coal Mine, Fishing Grounds, Oil Platform, Quarry, Sand Pit.
Source conflicts to keep visible
The cargo and industry tables disagree or omit some booster consumers, including Machines at Logging Camp/Iron Ore Mine and Farm versus Crop Farm naming. The database preserves these conflicts rather than silently unioning contradictory required fields. Check each held record and both tables before treating a booster relationship as settled.
Practical check and unknown values
Trace the passenger connection and the specific booster cargo to the selected industry, inspect input stock and recent arrivals, and compare the same production window. No bonus percentage, universal throughput multiplier or independent live-build measurement is published.
