1. Re-coding
Due to some technical difficulties we decided to re-code from ground the complete game. It means that most of bases will be crated again but we will use existing parts of the code to avoid interruption of your existing creations. AI will be modified in some places so passengers and staff members will get more clever by time.
2. Custom Timetables
In 0.9 version we plan to enable the custom timetable system. I means you will have a complete control on arrival and departures of the trains with the standard minimum 3 hours limit to stay at the station per train but you will be able to have all train at once to have rush hour maximums or mid day empty tracks. Moreover we leave the basic timetable in place but there will be a separate menu to enable custom timetable.
3. Custom Train length and type
We also plan to enable a new cool features so within a few game parameter limits you will be able to set the train carriage number and even the train types. However some limitations stays in place for example you cannot have a modern ICE looking train in the very early years. Moreover we leave the basic timetable in place but there will be a separate menu to enable custom train lengths and type.
4. Train and station disasters
0.9 will contain a few more extremely interesting features such as the train disasters... A derailed train? A passengers on the track? Or just a tree on the rails? Who know what other amazing disasters can happen in a station's life :)
5. Ticket gates - later version
Well... ticket gates is a huge request from our great fans. At the moment the ticket gate system is not working properly and it creates more stress and madness in the station than advantages. It really needs more work to work properly. (We know that we are saying this for sometime now but believe us: it is not yet ready to be released! :) )
6. New passengers
We will add a few more passenger types: smoking violators and distracted passengers.
7. Five new train designs
A few new trains are coming to Train Station Simulator 0.9. Each era will get one new train type so 5
8. New language localization: Brazilian (Portuguese)
We will enable a new text Localization: Brazilian - Portuguese
9. Two new facilities
In version 0.9 playgrounds and parks are coming as new recreational zones.
10. Train cleaner units, track maintenance service members
New staff members will also included in this update. Now version 0.9 there will be some extra duty: players need to keep trains clean as well inside.
***THE MEGA-GIGA BIG PLANNED EXTRA!!***
11. Train interiors - might not arrive to 0.9 update still in alpha*
We plan to enable an amazing new feature you all will LOVE. When hovering over trains you will be able to see INSIDE the interiors of all your passenger train carriages including all chairs and small tables and you will be able to see when a train is getting full of passengers!
*Be warned that this features is highly in development so we cannot guarantee that this will be available in the next update fully. But working on it to make you all happy!! :)
All in all, the past few months was a bit quite without small updates so we plan to release the larger 0.9 huge update in the coming months!
Keep us updated with all your kind comments and suggestions and we still love to see all your creations in the screenshot section!
