The next major version of Capitalism Lab, which would be version 10.0, will introduce the new Export Company feature for the Experimental DLC.

The export company lets you:
>Find buyers worldwide through the Export Client Search
>Set up deals to sell products overseas
>Link export deals to your production facilities
>Generate sales beyond local market limitations, especially for raw materials and semi-products.

Opening your business to the world brings new opportunities. The Export Company gives you the tools to capitalize on demand globally and offers a strategic growth opportunity to scale your operations in Survival mode.

I really liked what I just read.

I hope to test it out in the future to see what the overall gameplay is like.

As for the Pontos idea, it was sensational. :mrgreen:

Suggestion 1 :

In the future, if possible, there could also be a financial crisis or wars abroad.

In the event of a financial crisis, the price paid by customers would decrease slightly.

Or, for example, in the event of war, the exporting company would receive a better price and a larger quantity for a certain product.

This would also betray a very interesting dynamism.

For this type of event, there may be an on/off option if the player does not want to play with this type of event.


I know it's still too early for these suggestions. However, I will record my thoughts here.

This is great news !

I really look forward to this update. Capitalism Lab has grown as one of my favorite games ever since my purchase 1 or 2 years ago.

I have a few questions and suggestions.

1) To what extent could those sales amount to ? Can I export for hundreds of millions worth of products ?

2) Does it affect the global stock market ?

3) Have you deliberately made it so that warehouse cannot be used as an export base for balance reasons ?

As stated, I'm excited about the news !

Please see https://www.capitalismlab.com/export-company/

On the last section of the web page, you will see:
Daily Export Demand
The quantity the export client is willing to purchase daily, which is based on the product’s quality rating.

No.

Since the purchase quantity are based on the product’s quality rating, it doesn't matter whether the products are supplied from warehouses or factories.
