Hello tycooners!
We are happy to announce a new patch for Transport Services. We hope you will enjoy it!
There are key changes:
- Rendering & physics optimization ( we made the game way smoother especially for the late game )
- Chain signals for rails. Now you modify the signal to be "block", "one way" or "chain". Chain signals set red for all the chained segments along the train path to make sure, it is able to leave your critical segment without letting other trains enter it from other directions.
- Improved rail preview & rail build type selection.
- Making towns bigger is now way easier. And you will get faster highrises and skyscrapers. To balance this effect we made a revelation of cities after 12th one slower. On the other hand, the 3rd city reveals faster, than in previous versions.
- Fixed known cases, when train animation did not fit the rail shape.
- Signals are now also physical objects.
- Fixed issue, when bus or truck could leave the station with wrong the animations until entering another station.
- Minimap now also shows roads as well.
- Minimap functions changed, left clicking on the city will move the camera, meanwhile, right click will look camera in direction to that city without moving
- Added +- buttons over minimap, so you can use it aside +- keys to zoom minimap.
How chain signal works:
Since this patch each switch has 3 modes:
Hope you will enjoy the patch. On the other hand, we know it still has some rare bugs. For example, it is possible to see yellow signals on an empty segment - you can repair it with replacing the rail beneath the broken arrow in case you will experience this bug. We are working hard to catch them with upcoming hotfixes. Anyway, this patch is more stable than the previous one and brings a lot of new options on how to design the tracks.

Patch 1.04Greetings our faithful players. In this patch, we focused on long-lasting trains related issues. Although they might look the same. In fact, the reasons why trains might get stuck were plenty. And still, there are some yet unsolved cases. After this patch, it should become rather a rare situation, when you need manually repair the switch. Besides that, we fixed many other issues, some crashes a…Water patch 1.03 hotfix2We are releasing another hotfix for this... Well, not much stable patch. Thanks for another feedback, that the first hotfix did not solve the issue for all the cases and you were not able to load your water map saves at all. If you have not worked save since the previous hotfix, you should be able to load your game. On the other hand, we had to slightly change the algorithm for spawning trees a…Hotfix 1.03We apologize, that we missed one huge bug in the new patch related to the new maps. An old map without water was not affected at all. Although we fixed the issue sadly all saved progress of water map can be lost and cannot be easily repaired. If you see any issue when loading your saved water-based map we recommend starting the game again. We hope you did not lose much of your time as we tried…
