Could you fix the problem that the port, airport, cargo train don't export products?
Export products like this?:
As I also documented on the corresponding bug for this in general export seems to work, it might just need some tweaking and explanation. To export goods by train the right conditions have to be met (same for planes).
From my discovery a factory starts exporting by train if...
1. it produces way more goods than are needed in the city
2. export amount exceeds what a truck can load
3. exporting using train is more economic than exporting using train → exporting small amounts by train is just too pricey it seems
For the same reason you may not see cargo being transported by ship and plane as both are even more expensive with cargo plane being in lead.
I watch this situation for a long time now - during day just 50t of goods (usually metal which I'm not producing actively) are exported, same for the night. The number increase when there is rush hour (streets and highways are blocked by vehicles so transport costs on road rise) - during these times trains are filled by goods like shown above (had up to 1kt being exported on the current, not that massive industry district I have).
Calculation if transporting with other vehicles than trucks is an option is way more complex than in C:S1 (in which only network length was a big factor - now it's costs of transport mainly)
Even my post sorting station does what it's intended to do without breaking the system as my population is above 60k and growing with some well established post offices
Just my two cents.
