Good modding resources
Posted: Mon Sep 11, 2017 9:48 pm
I thought it might be useful to add a few links that might come in handy for people wishing to create their own mods, or tweak existing ones. I've found all of the below invaluable and they have really helped me get a handle on how products work and what things cost.
https://www.ers.usda.gov/data-products/ ... rices.aspx - this is the goto resource for anything agriculture related; this particular link gives you the average retails prices for any imaginable fruit and veg.
http://www.madehow.com/ - if you want to know how its made and how things work, this is the site for you. Cracking resource.
http://www.plasticseurope.org/ - very useful for anything plastics related
https://www.icis.com/ - this link for ICIS Heren (not the terrorist organisation) who are purveyors of pricing and are what is known as a price reporting agency (PRA). They are a subscription service, but samples are usually available for most commodities.
http://www.retaileconomics.co.uk/retail ... -sales.asp - data hub for UK retail, I think they only allow historical downloads (up to 2014), but that's more than sufficient in most cases
If I come up with any others I will add.
