- Development update - 17 February 2025
Hello! I've updated the testing branch build of the game. I would like to introduce some of the changes: Suspension railways: Suspension railways are using a new collision system now. These now block exactly one tile and should correctly wait for other Suspension railway cars. Visual quality update: Most 3D models in the game now have gradient textures. Snow system: Originally I wanted to create scenario maps that would offer their own special content, such as new industries and special environmental conditions. I discarded the idea of creating scenario maps. The snow system is a remnant that can now be activated as an option in the Custom Game Start. I've made changes to the road construction system. This can lead to problems with old savegames. I recommend starting a new game. In addition, I fixed numerous errors and problems. I will communicate all changes soon with the update of t…
