Route terms
River displays its accepted goods, duration, reward, and Forecast before the route begins. A River Forecast can require 10% more goods with a 1.10 speed factor; the factor is not a fixed 10% reduction in the displayed duration.
Cycle time
River is compared through the complete cycle of travel and input replacement. One published example uses 11 Trail Mix and 36 minutes for River against 10 Trail Mix and 40 minutes for Road. With four minutes required to replace each Trail Mix bundle, both routes take about 80 minutes for the same reward.
River shares the single active Dispatch with Road and Aerial Dispatch, so another route begins after the current result is collected.
History
River Run is the former name retained by the River Dispatch entry.
