How to approach the decision
Editorial planning advice based on the confirmed systems above.
- Follow one vehicle through each junction to find the first queue.
- Compare road delay against loading delay before increasing the fleet.
A mistake to avoid
Road width alone does not establish the capacity of a bottleneck intersection.
Unknown values and independent test scope
Vehicle capacities, fuel/operating economics and loading stats.
Official documentation, historical developer statements and editorial inspection advice have separate scopes. Exact unobserved values remain Unknown. A published global patch does not establish an independent test of this guide.
