Posibility to manifacture more products by single factory is what is need, right now, you cant produce more then 3-4 products in factory, and only if they have single or same input. if you need 3 imputs, you basicly cant manifacture more then 1 per factory.
The idea behind the mods is really to provide more choice and a better competitive landscape - I'm not going to lie and say I don't take it a little bit personally when the AI encroaches on my "home" product turf, but I also don't think its realistic to produce everything available just because its there. Perhaps the better route here is just to make the AI tougher and more particular about where he competes, meaning that it would end up being far more difficult for the player to actually compete on all these fronts. It's definitely fun to try and do everything and make everything, but ultimately its only possible because you are literally crushing ALL the AI companies at once.

I honestly don't even both with building small or medium farms or factories. I just build the large version everytime.

Warehouses need extra floors to expand. I have to build a lot of warehouses because I can only put one or two products in each one.

FYI, Factory Capacity Modifier has been implemented since version 6.4.02.

Factory Capacity Modifier
A new script command under the [SPECIAL RULES] section of a script.

Factory Capacity Modifier=<50 to 500>
It modifies the capacity of all factories. The default value is 100. Assigning a value higher than 100 will increase the capacities of all factories. The setup and operating costs of factories will also increase accordingly.

For more info about how to use a script, please see:

I posted a new suggestion multiple floors system for factories and explained why it is superior to the factory capacity modifier. Please see this post: https://www.capitalism2.com/forum/viewt ... 162#p35090
