In 2019 Train Station Simulator got many major updates. 2020 will be a continuing year for major updates and the testing of new features. The game may will see a final 1.0 release version as well in 2020.
The greatest update I have made last year was the complete re-coding of Train Station Simulator. I have been finalizing this re-coding for some time as some bugs have not yet been pacthed in the game. With the new code I can happily update the game much-much longer.
Let me show your the nine new planned features for the 0.9.3 update:
1. Train Interiors
I plan to enable this features in 0.9.3 version so if you hover your mouse over the train carriages you will be able to see the trains interior and moreover you will be able to see the train filling up with passengers.
2. Freight train additions
You will see many more freight train types in the future. With some new cool looking engines and also the addition of new carriages. The new type of goods transported to your freight station will generate different amounts of revenue. This will result more fun of the freight option of the game.
3. Freight terminal additions
Moreover not just new trains and engines will appear but players will be able to create a more complex freight terminal with more trucks and this will also generate more revenue.
4. Cleaning staff's zoning
This major update will add a special feature for some of your staff members. From now on you will be able to add special regions to your cleaning staff members so you can prioritize some parts of your station. Also you can use the same old classic way as per default but this will add some new dimensions to your station.
5. New VIP partners
In the new version of Train Station Simulator some new VIP passengers will arrive to your station as well. For these very important passengers you will need to build more complex waiting areas with certain criteria. And happy VIP passengers will generate a lot more revenue!
6. New VIP areas
With the new VIP passengers you will have to ability to expand your station layout with a few new luxury facilities that will be used with VIP passengers.
7. New passengers carriages
Some new type of passengers carriages will arrive as well for these VIP passengers.
8. Underground restaurant court
More hungry passengers? No problem. You will be able to build a new larger food court to serve each and every passenger of your station.
9. Food Trucks
You will be able to add some food trucks along the street side of your game to serve passengers faster.
10. Console options, controller support
I plan to add controller support to the game but this is not yet clear if it will work properly on PC platforms as well.
Some new screenshots of these features will be announced before the update on the 24th of May!
As of now I plan to support the game for many years. You have seen major updates in Train Station Simulator since the first release. Last year was a bit quieter but that never means that the game have been abandoned but I am creating more projects as well and sometimes I cannot fully work only on one project. So please keep up guys with your support, ask questions, suggest new features and I will try to add them by time and also would love to hear all your ideas!
Thank you for all You Guys Train Lovers!
The 0.9.3 update is coming on 24th May 2020!
Stay Safe Everyone!
