Profitable Tourism

Description
This mod helps you earn more from tourism.

The tourism income is increased in 5 times. Can be set from x2 to x100 in the game options.
The value 5 was choosen so that the income from tourism was roughly the same as the unique buildings upkeep.

And, as a bonus feature, the taxi income is doubled.
Can be set from x1 (no change) to x10 in the game options.

Have fun!

- Question 1. Why increase tourism income?
- Answer. Because tourism is highly unprofitable in vanilla. There are a lot of complaints on the web about this subject.

- Question 2. Why not increase the number of tourists istead of the tourism income?
- Answer. The main reason is that it is much more complicated task and beyond of my capabilities. :(

- Question 3. Money is not an issue when my city grows big enough. What sense in increasing the income even more?
- Answer. Yes, in vanilla the unique buildings, which are the main source of tourism, are a kind of bueatification rather than a source of income. Try to use a mod that makes the economy harder (for example, Difficulty Tuning mod). Together with the increased income from tourism, it can give you a new level of experience.

Yeah, I'm seeing that, too. All commercial revenue multiplies, not just tourism.

It's now broken, it multiplies all commercial income instead of only tourism one. :steamsad:

I noticed that if you crank this up to 100x and 10x on tourism and taxi it breaks the simulation. Keep it below 20x on tourism and 3x on taxi and it works fairly well. Cims just dont show up anymore if you overdo it.

Mod works fine as well, now if only it worked for bus's and the like. They never appear to be profitable. x.x Heck add's bus's and trains just loses money.

I have just tested this mod myself, and it works flawlessly for me. No problems with any game corruption. No loading issues. The boosts to income work as described, and I was able to use it with a pre-existing saved game. I have all dlc, my game is fully updated, and I have hundreds of mods installed.

I'd guess the people having issues with this mod are having mod conflicts.

Thanks for this mod. It helps mitigate unrealistic economy in this game =)
