I am begging you to add cargo blimps to this and give them outside connections so I can have cool sci-fi flying cargo ships.

@Simon von Prajz - there is an option, leave only when full.
@wcampbell1834 - use my asset editor tools mod.
@Maxfarace - I will try to add it.
@Leo-Sadow - if it is still an issue, please send output log.

Could somebody help me with the fact that my barges spawn only 10% full?
Thank you in advance.

how do I add the ferry cargo vehicle class?

This works, thanks! BloodyPenguin's doesn't work anymore. Also, is there any way you could implement the "Swap Spawn position" mod into the UI? When placing it certain ways the AI seem to be having issues with getting in and out.
