Trade Port

Iv got 6000 crates of processors in my trade port and 3000 crates of computers. The description of the trade port says "global delivery every 60 minutes" I'm making huge losses from city services but If my consumer products sold I will be making 2-3 million. But the crates in the port are not being sold every 60 minutes, even though I have them on "export". It is making me constantly bankrupt.

Well, not sure on your set up but hopefully your ports are right near the specialization. If not, then that takes time and shows the process. Second, if your traffic in the city stinks, that slows up the export. Do you use boat or train to ship?? If your using vehicles and your traffic stinks, that will allow things up.

Otherwise, Try shutting off or demolishing all together.

Have you built the rail or sea connection for the port yet? I find rail most reliable in terms of global deliveries, and the more lots you have for a single trade item, the more crates get shipped off per train. I did have this issue one time where the trade train would never arrive to pick anything up, but reloading the map after visiting another city in the region seems to have solved the problem.

 

As for the global delivery trucks, they come from the region, so if your regional connection is congested or if the trucks have trouble navigating within your city, this may be why the global trucks never arrive to pick anything up. Or it could be just another one of the game's bugs. Use the trade data map to keep track of where the trucks are.
