Gameplay patch 7

Gameplay patch 7 is now live with the following changes:

Graphics

  • Adjusted sky colour, tint, depth-of-field and grain
  • Fixed some scenery objects appearing in the wrong place for one frame when they're loaded for the first time

Physics

  • Fixed a bug causing unbraked wagons to push brake vans and locomotives downhill even with the brake fully applied
  • Fixed a bug causing Class 03 brakes to be stuck even when they're shown as fully released

Traffic

  • Fixed six pathfinding bugs
  • Fixed some stations in rescue scenarios having passing times greater than the arrival to the next stop
  • Added missing Class 126 Inter-City depot movements to the North Landen default timetable

User interface

  • Simplified key prompt and penalty animations on the HUD to be less distracting
  • Increased simple notches from three to four in order to match the number of throttle notches on the railcars
  • Fixed restarting a run to not reset edits made to the formation
  • Fixed cancelling the starting of a run to not reset edits made to the formation

Timetable editor

  • Added service ending time to service heading in the side panel
  • Changed timetable editor to save data in text rather than binary format. Editing some things in bulk (using search&replace for instance) is easier in a text editor than in the timetable editor

What's next?

Another patch coming soon
