Hi. This build has a few updates to make the later game play a little more accessible as well as opening up more unique items.
There has also been a fair amount of work on the high score server which continues to go offline.
When the server is offline, you can still play your game and your completed towns will upload once the server goes back online.
There are extra issues of playing offline for those playing a few of the L2 modules including Indonesia and Texas. I am working on an offline function to keep those running.
LOGistICAL Sale
LOGistICAL is having a sale across all modules. Sale ends 9th August 2021.
50% off all LOGistICAL 1 modules and DLCs
50% off all LOGistICAL 2 modules and DLCs
30% off LOGistICAL: Earth
LOGistICAL 3 is too new for a discount.
LOGistICAL 3: Kansas USA
LOGistICAL 3: Kansas is released and a bunch of players have already completed it.
I decided to make L3 independent of LOGistICAL: Earth. Both will use the same game engine, but you won't need to purchase LOGistICAL: Earth to play the LOGistICAL: 3 modules (and vice versa).
LOGistICAL: 3 is giving you smaller modules. Ones that will only take you a few weeks to complete.
There is currently one module LOGistICAL: Kansas that is ready to play and I will continue to release more modules for L3. Some free. Others as DLCs.
LOGistICAL Development
I have been working on a few things over the past weeks. Getting new content and creating new games.
There is a lot to do but it is working out quite well and I have been utilising the L3 engine to kick start all of these projects.
Here is a summarised list of what I have been creating. More details are in a previous newsletter.

LOGistICAL: Earth Updates
- 18 new contracts to unlock more Unique items. That covers all but the "Super Tech" industries and the "Phosphate" mining.
- Reduction of Super Tech goals in contracts
- Fix for advanced industries suddenly appearing where there should be Single Stores.
* This usually happens for the Port of Tauranga in NZ, as it is generally the first place to build Single Stores.
- Set a bunch of businesses to "Vatican" that were incorrectly labeled as "Italy"
- Added a pop-up message to notify player if their game didn't save.
- Turned "Heat Map" off to see if it may be the cause of the server disruptions.
- Turned off the server conflict resolution process as it may be draining the server
LOGistICAL help
Tip: Some players look over to the Steam Achievements to see what other players have completed that they haven't. Especially those that have a higher percentage of completions.
For those struggling to know what to do next, pop into the Discord server and ask other players.

LOGistICAL: Earth has a wiki. Lots of useful information. You can update it, too.
