Where The Money Went
Please start ModManager first. This registers the installation link with Windows.
Description
Where The Money Went turns the Overview tab's Revenue and Expenses chart into a cash-flow view, so you can see at a glance where the money went in a bad year.
WHAT CHANGES
- The single red Expenses bar becomes three stacked layers: Operating expenses (running costs and maintenance of vehicles and infrastructure), Investment (construction and vehicle purchases) and Debt servicing (loan repayments and interest).
- Revenue (including subsidies) and Loan taken are drawn as lines over the bars, so a bar poking above the revenue line means the year was funded by cash or borrowing.
- Every layer has a checkbox in the legend. Untick layers to isolate one bucket or to compare two; the remaining bars restack.
- The Time Scale slider, the other three Overview charts and the Finances tab are untouched.
NUMBERS
The chart reads the same finance table that feeds the Finances tab, so each layer reconciles to the rows there: the carrier rows sum to Operating expenses, the Investments group to Investment, and Loan Interest plus Principal Repayment to Debt servicing.
COMPATIBILITY
- UI only, no gameplay changes. Marked cosmetic, so achievements stay enabled.
- Safe to add to or remove from an existing save at any time.
- Hooks the shared finance chart recipes rather than replacing the company window, so it should coexist with other UI mods.
KNOWN LIMITS
- Bars are about two thirds of the vanilla width: the chart widget divides each year's slot across bar series and offers no width setting.
- Legend toggles are remembered for the session, not saved.
- Manual balance edits are not plotted.
DISCLOSURE
Built by TensorClaus with AI assistance (Anthropic's Claude): the Lua, the description and the card image were drafted with it and tested in-game by hand.
