The third gameplay patch is now live with the following changes:
Penalties, scoring and achievements
- Adjusted collision penalty to make it less sensitive
- Prevented "changing gears with power on" penalty from triggering if engines are not running
GUI
- Attempted to fix HUD gradient sign again
- Fixed content management list for trains to show unnamed entries (ones with no vehicles)
- Fixed driving settings menu to not show roles other than leading driver for rescue scenarios
- Changed returning back to previous menu to highlight the previously selected item automatically
- Added missing back actions to "Make copy" options for consistency
- Added warnings to "Make copy" options about being unsuitable for backups because they regenerate GUIDs and will break references between timetables, routes and trains. If you need to make a backup, copy the folder manually instead
- Added filtering by starting station to service listing
Editors
- Fixed a possible crash in the timetable editor during a test run
- Fixed editor side panel data to sync with editing done in the main view. For example, when dragging a node its position is now updated immediately in the side panel
- Disabled undo/redo mechanism in all editors for now because it was unreliable
- Changed timetable editor to start through the loading screen because loading can take a long time for some routes
- Changed service listing in timetable editor to not show the template of each service as a child item because deleting a template with multiple services would cause a crash. Each service now has an "Open template" option instead
- Changed exiting an editor to return to the previous menu instead of going back to the root of the main menu
Miscellaneous
- Fixed horn lever to be more responsive when dragged with the mouse
- Fixed wrong speed limit signs near Litton tunnel in the Mountain Pass route
- Fixed Class 37 and 40 engine sounds to be less muddled
- Adjusted vehicle interior audio mixing to make engines more audible
- Adjusted midday bloom and color grading to make colours more vibrant
What's next?
Another patch coming soon
