AHTS is basically technology maintenance, or your IT guy, and software is constantly being updated, so that is a consumption market right there.
That's how I interpreted it anyway...

No I pretty sure they don't spend much on HT. They use cheap Walmart computers and 40 year old AS 400 which is primitive as a dinosaur.
For sport
plastic
rubber
steel
lead
the steel and the lead and probably the most important part
steel and lead = workout
the plastic and rubber are balls

Computers
Software
Books And Newspapers
Household Products
High Tech Services
Electric Power

From the looks of this consumption list. The product really represents a general form of entertainment industry. Computer Games, Movie Theatres, E-Books, etc. Considering the lack of Corp types under Recreation, I think this generalised idea was what they were going for. It's just the name Sport that's misleading.

I am not sure I understand what you are asking but I will explain Sport.

Sport products are consumed by the population.

to make these products, the "Sport" corporations that provide these services, or products use all kinds of products in the production process.

Sport equipment is computerized, uses a lot of software, documentation, services and HT services etc.

We could add more of course.

Andy,

"We could add more of course."

I think that's what he means. While back I suggested that sports should use food products. As it stands the community is very supportive of the GM diversifying the use of products. Personally I think every product (expect military due to constraints) should be used in at least 3 other corporations. Small changes and diversifying products leads to stronger economies, better common markets, and more trading opinions.

That seems to be the common theme I'm hearing

I agree with super,

You could add Aircraft Fuel and Airplanes to Agriculture corporations as they would need crop dusters to spray pesticides over their fields.

Boats could be used by Fish corporations, as well as Vacation Corporations for cruises, and Sports Corporation for speed boat racing and sport fishing.

And having Services and Vacation include the use of all the food products if you want to have Services include the service industry such as fast food and dining.

Aircraft and airplanes being used for agriculture I vote Yes

Boats being used by fishing corporations I vote Yes

I think the vacation and sports should include not all but at least things like meat, other food products, wine, or vegetables.

I do think that Sports and vacation should use cars. Both I don't know because motor are specific to water and what if they're landlocked countries are they don't have reverse or oceans and means just a role play thing but definitely used cars

Good ideas here

airplanes with crop dusting(lol! too much hummus can do this also)

Boats needed for fishing? ofcourse, can actually make food products more useful as most of them are very bunk, would like to see more value in these corperations.

Vaction and sports hard to exactly determine whats needed, but cars for both would make sense. Trucks also would as equipment/buses are needed for such things as well.

Beans should be used in other food corporations for bean dip and hummus as well as military supplies as we all know about the beans in MRE.

Bread corporations could use butter and spices for the production of Butter bread or cinnamon buns as well as sugar and chocolate for donuts.
(I lived near a bread factory they make all kinds of baked goods)

Bricks sold to asset maintenance for maintaining buildings.

Perhaps several corporations should purchase cable tv services as they would need to purchase tv time for advertisements.

Lol also crop dusting corperations; with beans and hummus included for an extra kick!

Though really i believe their should be larger use of trucks in corporations; as most corperations need some way on conveying supplies on land as well as truck coperations i noticed have a larger demand of products (eletric motors, car engines, displays, machine parts) that are less used in then other products in corperations such as electric power or chemicals. This can help create a larger demand needed for other products; as well as main stream products(so to put) will be using supplies if more corporations used trucks.

Cars and trucks should be used in books and newspaper corporations because the newspapers are delivered to the stands.

Cattle could be used in several corporations such as furniture and clothes as that is where leather comes from or be used in the milk corporations.

clothes could be used in several corporations for uniforms.

cotton could be used in medical materials for cotton balls used for various aid.

lol
many nice ideas.
more diversification is needed. We will do it but not too many changes at a time.

We should probably add transportation that could be added to many corporations. Transportation will use a lot of trucks.

We should not overdo it.
if we want more realism, we need to increase the number of products to 1000, then to 10.000.

also have each corporation produce several variations of the products they produce.

The computer side of sport equipment is very small. the actual sport part take up most of the weight
