Adding ferries? to current portals can be done.
Adding ferry portals? that would need map editing.

my_ferry_mod.scs

map structure:
def\ferry\connection\

Each connection needs 2 files, 1 for each direction.
filename:
name1_name2.sii

Code: Select all

SiiNunit
{
ferry_connection : conn.name1.name2 {
	price: 500
	time: 120
	distance: 65
}
}

filename:
name2_name1.sii

Code: Select all

SiiNunit
{
ferry_connection : conn.name2.name1 {
	price: 500
	time: 120
	distance: 65
}
}

price in euros.
time in minutes
distance in kilometres.

ferry port names can be found in def\ferry\ in promods def, rusmap def etc.

Some of those ferries are already in other mods.
1. Stockholm-Tallinn ferry. viewtopic.php?t=18643 But you need to edit the manifest.sii file by opening the scs mod file with any archivator supporting .zip format. The you need to change the game version to 1.31 (of course, if you play with the latest version).
compatible_versions[]: "1.31.*" # Mod is compatible with 1.31.X..

2. Scandinavian ferries.
There is "Scandinavian Ferry Lines" mod on Steam workshop compatible with 1.31 as well.
P.S. To make multiple real ferry operators into the game (Stena line, Colour line, DFDS, Tallink etc.) you have to make a custom company, since many ferries in the game are actuall companies. But it's not so easy to do.

Also, making realistic ferries can make another very unrealistic thing.. Let's imagine that you would take a ferry from Kristiansand (Color line)... and then driving out of a ferry from completelly difirent company f.ex. Stena line. The only one solution to fix it would be making ferry connections ONLY between harbours operated by the same ferry line or making multiple ferries for one city, which would too space consuming, and again.. I doubt it will look even more realistic.
