- Oil refining process rebalancing including oil wells upgrade to make more oil tokens.
New Quests

- Also we've added 4 new unique engines as a quest reward (reskinned old types, but one is really unique & awesome). There is also one new rare quest wagon.

New Map
- One biggest carefully prepared map called Island
- Updated all maps with 4th era industry locations
New Features

- Now you can easily duplicate any train either stopped inside the depot or running outside.
- Vehicle's (or building's) onboad cameras now have directions and better transition between cameras itself.
Minor improvements

- Engines and wagons rebalancing.
- Enabled new hardcore option: Fuel cost
- Interieur and 3d wheels of Porter steam engine.
- There is also message when you send train to a depot and it finally reaches the destination :)
Fixes
- Many fixes including some pathfinding, autorouting, signals, quests, visuals, post office generating, kph/mph conversions, quest text alignment with buttons and icons.
- Also fixed annoying Station full storage message.
- Splash window always starts on primary monitor and fixed prefered monitor index (for cases where removed or switched monitors).
- and much more...
You can continue from the old save, but better to start
new game due to additional content in previous eras!
