Simutrans 124.2.2 released on Steam

Simutrans released three minor versions this summer that have finally made its way to Steam. Here is the combined changelog of Simutrans 124.2, 124.2.1 and 124.2.2

Highlights of this version

New way builder: If a new way starts one tile from an existing way and ends one tile from an existing way, it will now try very hard to make a parallel track. It works as good as it can do without terraforming. It may still join at a place where it cannot pass next to it but then go parallel again, greatly saving efforts (especially with diagonals).
When you click on a chat message ticker, it opens the chat window in the corresponding message tab.

Paksets updated on Steam

Pak128.german 2.3 beta
Pak64 124.2.2
Scenario tutorials for pak128 and pak64

Paksets updated outside Steam

Multiple Choices

Graphics Packages (Paksets)
In Simutrans you have multiple choices from the beginning to the end. Even before starting the game you have lots of graphics packages to choose from, every pakset giving you a different experience and play style.
Vehicles and Cargo
The success of your company will depend on good planning, and we give you the tools for it. Simutrans can have buses, trucks, trains, trams, ships, airplanes, monorails, maglevs and any other vehicle that goes through air, land or water. Choose them wisely and transport the immense variety of cargo each pakset has to offer, from passengers and mail to raw materials and consumer products.

Dynamic and Intelligent

Cargo has Destinations
Simutrans citizens and products don't simply jump in your vehicles and go to wherever you send them. They actually have individual destinations: people want to check out attractions, go shopping, or visit friends. Products also have their destinations - factories have contracts with each other and they won't sell or buy from anyone else. If you don't give them the possibility to go where they want, they simply won't use your transport company.
Complete the Chain
Transporting products not only gives you money, but makes the economy roll. As you transport products between factories, they start producing and selling. Every factory receiving the materials it needs starts producing new goods letting you connect more and more factories across the region.
Influencing Cities
Your transportation affects city growth. Every unit of anything you transport will affect the nearby cities making them grow and prosper. Sometimes cities will create new attractions and places of interest, which attract a lot more passengers. Or maybe your service may attract new industries, that give you even more opportunities. But not everything you do leads to good things - as cities grow more cars are on the roads, and you will end up trying to deal with the traffic. What you do shapes the future.

Control and Customize

Configure All or Nothing
Simutrans has a lot of configurations that you can customize. If you're not a customization freak, don't worry, generally with a few options Simutrans will fit your play style. But if you are, you'll enjoy all the options and ways to change the game.
Build Your World
When you create a new game, don't expect it to be a fixed world. You can shape the world to suit your needs, build roads, factories, houses, and buildings, raise and lower the terrain, create rivers, lakes, and seas, or beautify the world by planting trees.

How You Play

Multiplayer
Tired of playing alone? Simutrans lets you play multiplayer. You can join a public server and compete and collaborate with people all around the world. You can also play with your friends creating a private online or LAN server.
Hardcore or Casual?
You can challenge yourself in a normal game, trying to make your company successful and rich. Or you can just relax and have some fun playing with no hurry or money, just for your enjoyment and the satisfaction of transporting everything.

Cost

This game will be Free on Steam.

Languages

Simutrans offers a range of languages, translated on a volunteer basis. Languages will be listed on the steam page when they reach at least 80% translation of Base Texts, and 65% translation of pak128.
