Mashinky is worth a closer look if you want management, great with friends, solo-friendly, and automation.

Check more carefully if you dislike technical roughness.

Steam review snapshots
I'm glad the line-management was finally added, but it still needs some work in my opinion.Even though the game is developing slowly, it's moving in the right direction, and it's interesting to follow the updates.I'm an anxious ball of stress with abandonment issues so I usually play alone, but I may add an addendum to this…It is everything I want a transport tycoon game to be and works well for a multiplayer game with friends.Why it fits
Check it if you want simulation, strategy filtered by weird, single-player, co-op.
