Update 1.5.0 – Fist Fights, Yellow Taxi, Police Chases & a New Garage

major update

Moto Courier Simulator · published · build 26290146

Hey couriers!

A lot has changed since 1.4.23. This is our biggest update yet. Here are the highlights:

🥊 Fist fighting

  • Left click for a light punch, hold for a heavy one. Jabs, crosses, hooks and left-right combos.

  • Right click to guard. Block at the right moment to parry. Press Space plus a direction to dodge. A perfectly timed dodge triggers slow motion and a counter-attack chance.

  • New: target lock-on, stamina, health bars and knockout animations.

  • Brawling pedestrians guard, throw combos, dodge and read your wind-ups.

  • Hits make the upper body stagger with physics (partial ragdoll). New impact, guard, fall and effort sounds.

  • Fights have consequences: witnesses call the police and officers respond.

  • In co-op you can fight your friend too. Punches and falls show on both screens.

🚔 Police & wanted levels

  • New GTA-style wanted system. Commit a crime, get stars, and the police will chase you.

  • Hitting pedestrians or police cars with a vehicle also counts as a crime.

  • If you're arrested, you lose time at the station and your bike is towed to the impound lot. Pay the fee to get it back.

  • If you run on foot, officers can stop you with a taser.

🚕 Taxi driving

  • Drivable yellow taxi with a V8 sound, interior gauges and a call strip (Enter).

  • Moto taxi: dropping off a passenger shows an earnings card (fare, tip, night and rush bonuses).

  • In Story mode you can rent a taxi from Rıza's stand in the city centre.

  • Rentals last 8, 12, 16 or 24 hours. The higher your taxi rank, the longer and cheaper the rentals.

  • When time runs out, return the taxi to the stand. Your bike waits right where you parked it.

🔧 Garage & repairs

  • The Story garage now works like Depot mode. Order parts at the workbench; the boxes arrive next to your bike and you remove the old part and fit the new one yourself.

  • Don't feel like wrenching? Use the big green "Quick fit" button (T / RT).

  • The sport exhaust, windscreen and crash bar from the Tuning shop now show on your bike.

  • Ercan's gift is new: a sport exhaust and a courier bag in your bike's colour.

  • Each bike now has a single rear bag, and every rear bag carries orders.

  • The game now shows you that the garage is your home.

🏍️ Riding

  • First-person riding arms: your hands on the bars in first-person view, tuned for all 11 vehicles.

  • Press Space for a realistic rear-wheel slide on bikes. Cars (taxi, van) are now rear-wheel drive with a handbrake.

  • Reworked mount and dismount animations: the leg swings over the seat and the body leans forward.

  • On the bicycle, holding Ctrl also sprints.

  • New bike: Verrani Ferro 1200 (V-twin chopper).

  • New Free ride bike selector with a big rotating preview and picture cards.

  • Bikes in "Find a vehicle" listings now come undamaged and fully serviced.

💰 Story & economy

  • The Story economy has been rebalanced. The story takes about 10 hours, whatever day length you choose.

  • Bike prices, loans, bills, and company and shop income all follow the same maths.

  • Fixed a company-level soft-lock.

  • Courier offers no longer pile up back to back. Pay is now a base fare plus distance.

  • Removed vehicle insurance and the unlicensed/uninsured fines.

  • New receipt-check minigame: no time limit, match items with coloured wires.

🌆 World & visuals

  • Realistic characters, a new wardrobe and new NPCs.

  • All 23 shops you take orders from have new interiors. 22 locations (depot, garage, gas station, test area, landmarks) have been rebuilt.

  • New 3D cooking mode and a new mode selection screen.

  • New gas station on the mainland; the island bridge has been fixed.

  • Redesigned sleep screen, plus a sleep bar on the HUD.

  • Fixed flickering surfaces (z-fighting) in the garage, casino and bar.

👥 Co-op

  • Lower latency for shop actions (client-side prediction).

  • Fixed job selection, sleep and traffic sync.

  • Cleaner team HUD.

⚡ Performance & stability

  • Big reduction in stutters on startup, on dismount, in crashes and when NPCs spawn.

  • Added VRAM texture compression, and removed a duplicate city copy left in memory (~105 MB less).

  • New CPU quality tier for low-end hardware.

  • Windows: fixed audio crackling and dropouts on the first-launch "Preparing graphics" screen and in the intro videos.

  • Safe start: a graphics backend change that crashes before the menu is reverted automatically, once.

  • Fixed soft-locks in Story, Depot, Free ride and co-op.
