Changelog Update 03 [English] -27.11.2015

After a long wait, here's the Changelog for Update 03. Let's talk about the things that are newly implemented in the game, shall we? One of this update's goals was to get rid of some dead weight and issues previous versions had. First things first: savegames will now be persistent. You will keep them as new versions go live. New platform: Macintosh! Update 3 is now also working for Mac users. We got a lot of requests for a Mac version and we gladly -if with some delay- delivered. New language packs: German, Russian, Ukrainian. This is only the first batch of available languages, we plan to constantly expand our pool. German, Russian and Ukrainian have been implemented in this version (and are probably still subject to polishing).

Train Changes

• Train balancing: We adjusted train and engine power and some other details in favor of a faster pacing (game-wise). This was a major feedback point in the last update. We listened, and now your trains are a bit faster and powerful again.
• Carriage balancing: We tweaked the rules of carriages a bit. Crew will now be quartered in new compartments - new train compartments are now available. We wanted to try something new here and in the next step we'll direct more attention towards passengers who also deserve some love.
• New engine - the Forney: We added a new locomotive for more wiggle room. There is now a strong, cheap alternative to the General to get into the action faster.

Economy:

• Economy balancing: Starting conditions have, yet again, been adjusted for more variety. You'll now start with a lavish sum of 2500 $.
• Prices and production ratio: We overhauled the supply of various cities. There is now a more varied supply for players to choose from. This also means that there will be less peaks and top prices and that events slowing down production will have more impact/become more interesting.
• City quest adjustments: Quest rewards have been slightly toned down, but the number of simultaneously available quests has been increased.

City Additions

• Building expansion: Our cities seem a bit empty at times. We added some buildings offering new possibilities in addition to the town halls and shops.
• Banks: Banks are now open! You will be able to borrow money from various competing banks or even invest your riches wisely for more monetary gain. Banks will also offer new quests in the future.

Interface changes

• UI adjustments: We have polished the User Interface a bit and implemented some useful new options. If you click the Dollar button (Finances), an overview of all available cities, productions and various other stuff will be displayed.
• City Map: In the menu, you'll now also find the option to display more information about a city. You'll see on the world map where the next bank, pharmacy or the next possible source of income is located.
• You can now toggle the Questlog on the world map.

New Quests: We have some new, optional quests for you that'll bring the South a bit closer to you. We plan to make a bigger questline from these starter-quests and expand the game's world. New Events: We implemented a few smaller events to freshen up the overall flow of the game. A city in the making: right now, you'll find some new buildings like factories that are still under construction. This functionality is the basis for more building options and features. They're established with this update and more buildings will follow, like gun shops, drug stores and many more.

Things to come:

We really understand if you are upset about a low frequency of updates. It's difficult if you don't know what's going on. In the future, we will deliver more smaller updates so you will always stay, well, up to date. We will also give you news and information on a regular basis (the first topic could be weapon and equipment slots).
