My first ship came in and I got 700,000 products from it. An hour later I unloaded one of my trains and got 1.2 million products from it.

In real world shipping, the reason ships are seen in ports tied up is because the workers at the port cant load/unload those ships fast enough.

I asked the question in google as to how long it takes to load or unload the average container ship and the answer is 10-12 hrs for an 800 foot container ship.

My issue is that the ship gets back to our port, gets unloaded and is forced to sit and wait for its turn. If we are sending these ships using a rotating basis, then ships will be waiting for a few days.

If we weren't having our turn time controlled, then anyone who is lucky enough to have good ports to visit, PLUS if we could turn our ships as quickly as we reloaded them, then the shipping part of the game would be more of a draw. IMHO
