@Vinnie Terranova
So, I figured out, IRL, the ferrycrossing between Travemünde and Trelleborg, takes about 9 hours, and costs ~ 500 € for a semi with 1 driver (shared cabin).
Are you able to implement these numbers ?
That's exactly 9 hours rest, which is great !

Thank you !

@Borgrim I cannot do that. I've automated the calculation for time and price, based on the distance. It will take me too much time to figure out how much time a ferry crossing takes in real life and how much it costs.
But you can adjust the values of the Travemünde - Trelleborg ferry by yourself. It's quite easy:
- Open the Ferry Collection mod with 7-Zip or WinRar or something similar
- Goto def\ferry\connection
- Edit travemunde_trelleborg.sii and trelleborg_travemunde.sii:
- Change price from 87 to 500
- Change time from 348 to 540
- Save the changes

@Vinnie Terranova
but what if the players themselves did this research because they live or travel in these regions IRL and let you know to update in the main mod? would it be acceptable?
So all participants would gain by working more collaboratively and not need to rewrite the values over each original version released mod
better.... what if @Borgrim sent you your own mod with the values updated by him as posted above? you wouldn't have any work. Just upload the new version
It's just that working with git (https://git-scm.com/) could be a bit challenging for some at first

Well, it might be an interesting idea. I have to think about it.
I'm also thinking about how realistic all those ferry connections should be? I mean, I've been thinking about creating a Newcastle - Stavanger ferry connection, although in real life such a ferry connection doesn't exist.
I also want to create nice, more realistic ferry paths, visible on the world map. Right now all my ferry connections are straight lines. I know it's possible to create curved lines, but I'm afraid I'll have to use the map editor to achieve this, and I don't have any experience with the map editor.

Ah, found it, Vinnie !
Was indeed easy to change.
Thanks for the explaining and the "how to"
cheers !

So you just need to wait 3 years for it to be realistic

Why not include a ferry to the Russian island as well?
