Hey Guys,
A new day, a new patch in TSS.
(At least for the first few weeks daily - hopefully not making you all going crazy! This really sounds like the first line of a RAP song...)
We know that you are liking the game more or less and we are here to help to like it MORE.
Today we are thrilled to announce:
NEW FEATURE:
Arrival Passengers:
We started to implement some more new, smarter features. Testing for the next patch arrival passengers getting off randomly trains on the visible side (Where doors can be seen opening and closing.) They tend to get off only to platforms so don't expect them appearing on simple tiles or the grass. No one likes to walk in the mud so place your platforms nicely if you wanna welcome arrival passengers.
The Good
- arrival passengers are usually hungry and thirsty so they may spend some money at your station.
- restrooms are free on (most) trains. That is the situation in TSS so they get off with empty....
- vandals are not permitted to get on trains meaning no vandals will get off.
The Bad
- right now no transfer passengers will appear. Arrival may eat or drink and they go out of your station. You can always click and check all passengers with the "P" keyboard so you will see the ones who is about to travel, VIP or arrival.
- no VIP are arriving by train. I suspect if you need more VIP place your Limo station in service. VIP passengers love to eat and love to pay for their quality food in restaurants and their tickets are valid for every train!!
- it is very experimental right now, so expect bugs and issues with these people :-)
- Speed switch now changes for SPACE key
Enhancements to existing features:
1. Control Room placement: there is a small issue now it shows green but you cannot place it. This will be addressed with this patch.
2. Speed switcher - SPACE
3. Train Timetable Type 2 / Track 2 not forced to track type - now fixed (really really I think it is fixed this time).
4. Workers should work so much better. We will talk to them strictly!
5. Vandals: you may see less vandals in fast mode... Well... that is a little present for you so they will not kick your station into pieces if time is running. This will be fine tuned.
6. All staff members are working little faster
7. Transportation miss-placing should not happen by now
8. Icon added to transportation when you can move it "FREE"
9. Few memory leaks updated
10. Track placing issues - now fixed (after placing two tracks and removing one did not let building another back)
11. Thank you guys! :D
Other stuff members are lazy sometimes. We are going to enhance their AI time to time but it takes more testing and time. We add more bug fixes by the day that YOU dear community members find and we do.
Thank you guys!
