🌉 Bridge System Major Upgrade

  • Manual bridge creation now supported — freely add bridges on any road segment, no longer dependent on auto-detection.
  • Bridge skew angle feature live — adjust abutment angle via slider in real time, with guardrail and slope automatically following.
  • Span length manually adjustable — flexible control over bridge length and span arrangement, what you see is what you get.
  • Bridge auto span layout algorithm rewritten — center-aligned standard span adaptation: based on identified bridge position center, uniformly applies standard spans across the entire bridge.
  • Abutment gap mechanism optimized for a clean, uniform visual appearance.
  • New abutment visualization — bridge structure clearly visible at a glance.
  • New bridge deletion feature — remove unwanted bridges.
  • Fixed bridge-tunnel overlap bug — bridges can no longer be mistakenly created inside tunnels.
  • Fixed bridge-related bugs.

🛣️ Road Editing

  • Alignment elements can now be extended independently from both front and back ends — no more directional restrictions when continuing a road, either end can be extended.
  • New extension shortcut buttons: one-click trigger for front/back end extension, no need to dig through menus.

🏔️ Slope System

  • Slope segmentation control now available: manual slope tiers can be edited independently with per-segment type settings.
  • New side ditch control.
  • Auto-cleanup of extraneous triangles on natural slopes for cleaner terrain edges.
  • Fixed terrain bugs caused by natural slope segmentation.
  • Fixed slope crashes and errors for significantly improved stability.

🚗 Vehicle System

  • New energy vehicle added.
  • R-key Smart Reset: press R to automatically reposition your vehicle to the nearest road station and align with the lane.
  • Vehicle performance and texture asset optimization.

🎵 Audio

  • New road creation sound effects — audio feedback from alignment selection through placement.
  • New energy vehicle exclusive audio: motor whine, low-speed pedestrian alert, and other EV-specific sounds.
  • Loop audio module optimized independently.
  • FMOD audio system parameter tuning.

🗺️ Levels & Art

  • Road creation interaction icons replaced for clearer operation cues.
  • Multiple terrain material and blend material fixes.
  • Terrain LOD optimization for smoother distant terrain transitions.
  • Terrain region intersection detection optimized for faster editing response.

🛠️ Stability Fixes

  • Fixed bridge-tunnel overlap, slope crashes, and various stability issues.
  • Fixed slope data save anomalies.
  • Multiple compilation errors and cache issues resolved.
