Oil and Fracking Industry. Other suggestions.

Theotown is a great game and pretty much anyone on this forum agrees that it is. But I noticed that the industry in Theotown could be improved. There is no fossil fuel industry. The fossil fuel industry generates millions upon millions of dollars (whatever your national currency is) a year. There would be a petroleum drill or rig which could be placed in water or on land. It causes pollution and there could be a possible disaster such as an oil spill which causes pollution too. Fracking would be placed on land also causes pollution. Coal mining causes pollution too. Pretty much they all cause pollution.

Oil drills would produce the most dollars (whatever your national currency is)
Fracking comes second.
Coal mining comes last.

Another thing that could be fixed is the high wires. High wires cause stray voltage.
Stay voltage- Stray voltage is the occurrence of electrical potential between two objects that ideally should not have any voltage difference between them. Small voltages often exist between two grounded objects in separate locations, due to normal current flow in the power system. Large voltages can appear on the enclosures of electrical equipment due to a fault in the electrical power system, such as a failure of insulation.
Stray voltage can cause cancer, ruin crops, and kill livestock. I thought that high wires could cause a negative influence. Like pollution or something else.
Please tell me what you think about my ideas.

There is already oil industry and coal mine in the industrial zone tab. And they also cause pollution and noise, so what you are suggesting is already in the game.Why make things so complex when you can just simplify them?
Fracking could be a nice industrial plugin, should anyone could do the texture.

Stray wires voltage is a bad idea, you cannot implement too much realism in such a simple city building management sim. High wires causing pollution? You will bet no one will gonna build it.

I will try to built high wires causing pollution.

That is true I shall think about ideas before I post them. If they make the game too complex or too simple I should not post them.

I'm still working on Crude Oil Industry plugin :)
