OK, I was not sure, so I will change the cargo port types to several cargo
handling capability tags (I had this already in mind, although the pictures
I had looked at seemed to refer to quite specialized facilities). Is this
applying to cruise ship / ferries as well? Are there fishing ports which
also have cruise ships or ferries leaving / arriving? I haven't seen this
so far, but my experiences with ports are somehow limited.

Maybe we could also have some capacity tags here? Like the maximum cargo /
passengers a port is able to handle in a given time?

Are there mixed cargo / passenger ports? Of course you might find them
close to each other, but wouldn't it make sense to map 2 ports in these
cases, one for cargo and one for passengers?

Cheers,
Martin

PS: can we please continue in the RFC thread of the proposal? Thank you.
