Original post
LOGistICAL 3: Vaccine (Xmas 2020) is Sacada's 2020 gift to all LOGistICAL owners.
Its 2020 and the Earth is sick... very sick... and vaccines are almost ready. Vaccines will require transport throughout the entire world, and LOGistICAL is a great place to practice on.
Beginning with the 9 WHO listed vaccine companies (plus Russia) you are to distribute the vaccine to all the regional and local distribution centres in every country around the world.
Of course it isn't that easy. You will also have to transport ingredients into the vaccine centres to make the vaccine, and also upgrade the vaccine industries, and then transport inputs to those industries and upgrades for them as well, and then for those inputs as well... etc, etc. You know how it is.
Oh, and lots of the vaccines require a lot of refrigeration, so you will have to transport to construct that as well as deliver them to many distribution centres.
LOGistICAL: Vaccine is a small (large) LOGistICAL game with over 5,000 businesses that each are all quite small (generally less than 50t requirement), and they are all businesses.
Here is a summary:
- 5,000+ smallish businesses to complete
- All roads are visible
- No roads require repair nor upgrade
- No consumption
- No industry building as there are no towns
- Some quarantines, but not a large quantity of them
- Large trucks can drive anywhere (except ferry routes)
- Unlimited quantity of each vehicles types
- 100+ vehicles allowed
- Multi-Route and Multi-Truck navigation is support
- All the LOGistICAL: Earth functionality
- Getting finicky or tedious around those islands? Change your logistical approach
- Fully rendered maps.
Start the game by delivering vaccines to the nearest places to establish your finances. Work your way across the planet.
Don't try to upgrade things straight away. You may find that fairly difficult and therefore frustrating.
There is still an issue with maximising the games.
A workaround is to drag the game's top Windows task bar to the top of the screen.
Enjoy,
Sacada.
- Complete any region to gain access to a Multi-Nav gizmo.
- Purchase gizmos at any vehicle depot once your vehicle is parked there.
- Select your vehicle and drag an output resource from an industry.
- Instead of a single drop to a town or business, you can continue selecting destinations.
- Check the dragged vehicle for the percentage queued. Once over 100% the truck will stop.
- Click the "Done" button to set the multi-nav in motion.
- Multi-trucks work with multi-nav
As LOGistICAL: Vaccine rolls out, LOGistICAL: Earth will also have new areas to play in, including:
- the United Kingdom, Ireland, Isle of Man (which will mostly complete Europe),
- South Africa, many eastern and southern African countries (which will mostly complete Africa),
- and many islands throughout the planet (which will mostly complete North America, South America and Oceania).
Enjoy,
Sacada.

Follow LOGistICAL 3: Earth on Steam...
Most of these latest builds are focused on optimising code, L2 and also the upcoming LOGistICAL 3: Earth release. All releases get the benefits of these updates.
The game will start with a small starting area that will have a bunch of contracts to give access to depots all over the globe.
There will be shipping between the continents and islands.
I have added clustering to LOGistICAL. Clustering displays a summary of all the towns and businesses within that area. It will display different colours and sizes depending on completeness, town/business quantities, populations (difficulty), industries and other factors.
This will be available for L:Earth and possible available for all L2 modules (see image above). This makes the game work smoothly while still processing tens of thousands of towns.
Some approximate statistics on L3:Earth (so far):
- 250 regions
- 50,000 towns
- 25,000 businesses
- 250,000 road segments
- 200,000 road junctions
- 3,500,000 nodes
L3:Earth alpha is available for test playing. At this point it is only moving the different trucks around the map without have the ability to play any towns or businesses. There is no cost to try it out.
Available on "LOGistICAL: ABC Islands (beta passcode: iwillfinishalltownsonearth).
To load, right click ABC Islands in your Steam library and select properties, BETA and copy the passcode into the box. I had to restart steam before it showed in the beta dropdown list.
Comments and chat on L3:Earth is available in a LOGistICAL Discord Channel.
