Your Railway Empire 2 Team,
All platforms
- Fixed several rare crashes .
- Fixed an issue where the achievements “Call of Duty” and “Accurate” were not being triggered.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 2 where the player could switch rail lines via event symbols on other rail lines, even if the tutorial did not intend for this to happen.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 2 where the player was able to switch to the railway buildings tab when not allowed.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 2 where the Confirm button was hidden by a speech bubble.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 3 where the player was unable to proceed because of an engine breakdown.
- In Tutorial 4, the waiting time for Sacramento reaching 40.000 citizens has been reduced.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 5 where the player got stuck if an industry is bought too early.
- Fixed an issue in Tutorial 5 where players could get stuck if they didn’t have enough money to participate in the auction.
- All trains have their correct whistle sound now.
- Fixed an issue where the displayed user score in the rankings showed 0 when the player performed much better than the average.
- Fixed an issue where some connection bonuses were not getting paid out.
- Fixed an issue where parallel track were using unnecessary bridges.
- Fixed an issue where the player was unable to fulfill the task “Ensure 95% train utilization for X in Y”.
- Fixed an issue in the scenario “Gold Rush” where the custom company name chosen by the player was overwritten.
- Fixed a multiplayer issue where only the host was able to demolish industries via the “Demolish Industry” button.
PC only
- Fixed an issue with the game requiring the AVX CPU feature which lead to crashes on very old CPUs that don’t have it (this affects 10+ years old CPUs). Instead of crashing, the game will instead not display videos on these CPUs anymore as a temporary workaround. We will provide a thorough fix in a later patch.
PS5 only
- Fixed an issue where the trophies for finishing Campaign missions were not getting awarded. Loading a save game just before a mission was finished and finishing the mission again will now properly unlock the trophy.
Xbox One consoles/PS4
- Improved loading algorithm for better performance when scrolling over the map.
