Every nation in National Transit has neighbours, but so far they are only scenery, and every trip in the game starts and ends inside your own country. Our Early Access notes list international trade and transport, connecting your nation with the wider world, among the things the
Ever since v0.2 brought in the City Map, players have asked whether roads and city content could be generated for them. Drawing every street across a country with dozens of settlements costs a lot of time, so this update (v0.2.11) adds a first version of automatic city building,
Every mode is now compared in hours : the fare is divided by travellers' value of time and added to the journey. Route cards show that sum as an equation you can read. Route cards Time breakdown — for road, rail, air and water Choice cost as an equation — travel time + fare ÷ val
This update delivers major performance improvements to the City Map, especially for large cities with dense and complex road networks. City Map Performance Improvements Significantly faster City Map loading Smoother performance in large cities Reduced pauses after building or edi
Fellow national transportation leaders, v0.2.0 is now the default version. No beta opt-in needed — launch the game and it's there. If you've been playing on the beta branch, you can switch back to Default public version in the same menu; both branches run the same build, so your

A quick fix: opening the Transport Demand panel on large saves could freeze the game for several minutes. It now opens promptly, even on big maps with a lot of settlements.
This update fixes a couple of things players flagged, reworks how development policies function, and adds a fresh soundtrack. Fixes Air & sea routes no longer bleed money. Route maintenance was running roughly 10× too high — a busy line at max fares still lost money every mon
New development policies, easier policy management, and a native Save As dialog, plus rail-distance and freight fixes. Existing saves are compatible. Eight new sector policies: satellite city, university town, medical hub, bio-science city, agro-industrial base, light manufacturi
A small bugfix and performance patch. No gameplay changes; existing saves are compatible. Performance Building roads and railways by dragging is smoother, especially over long distances. The New Settlement panel stays responsive as your network grows. Fixes Drag-to-connect: click
A small hotfix patch — a few stability fixes only. No gameplay changes, and your existing saves work as-is. Crash on large maps fixed. Panning and zooming leaked graphics memory until the GPU ran out and the game closed — worst on big countries. Fixed; memory now stays flat howev

A quick follow-up to v0.1.4. Fixed a crash that could happen while a large map was loading if you moved the mouse during the load. New "Route names" toggle (top toolbar, next to Saturation): keep route name labels visible at every zoom level — not just when zoomed in. Your choice
Building your network just got faster and far more precise — and you can put names for seas, bays, rivers and mountains on the map now. Smarter Road & Rail Building Drag city → city to connect , then pick Road or Rail — endpoints are filled in for you. (It is no longer necess
