RailLog #5: Load Speed
As a fairly large change internally, we have combined the menu and game scenes resulting in improved loading times and an overall improved user experience. Upon loading the game for the first time, your last played game or edited map will be loaded in the background. Allowing you to quickly resume where you left off. This change is also part of our transition to the new user interface style and better controller support as we are slowly updating all UI elements. In addition this changes makes it easier for us to improve loading times ever further in the future when switching between editing a map and playing the map as we would not have to load the level twice, once for each mode.
As a quality of life improvement we added the ability to give your save a name before you make a save. Previously you had to save the game, open the load game menu and then edit the name of your new save. And all this is now also in done in our new UI style.
While this new addition is not done yet, it should be soon. We will be adding a featured map item next to the news item on the current game menu. Here we will pick a community created map from the Steam Workshop and feature it in the game. We love all the beautiful, and sometimes crazy hard, maps our community creates and wanted to share these with all of you. Simply click on the map and play it like you would any other!
We might not even have to mention this but as with any update we fixed a lot of bugs that were found internally or with the help of our awesome community! Happy dispatching! -Angel Follow us: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1124180/Rail_Route https://store.steampowered.com/app/1896900/Rail_Route_The_Story_of_Jozic/

Hello Dispatchers! We're back with our fifth RailLog - this time, focussing on some more quality of life changes for Rail Route. Hope you enjoy!
Menu and game scene combination
As a fairly large change internally, we have combined the menu and game scenes resulting in improved loading times and an overall improved user experience. Upon loading the game for the first time, your last played game or edited map will be loaded in the background. Allowing you to quickly resume where you left off. This change is also part of our transition to the new user interface style and better controller support as we are slowly updating all UI elements. In addition this changes makes it easier for us to improve loading times ever further in the future when switching between editing a map and playing the map as we would not have to load the level twice, once for each mode.
Naming new saves
As a quality of life improvement we added the ability to give your save a name before you make a save. Previously you had to save the game, open the load game menu and then edit the name of your new save. And all this is now also in done in our new UI style.
Featured maps
While this new addition is not done yet, it should be soon. We will be adding a featured map item next to the news item on the current game menu. Here we will pick a community created map from the Steam Workshop and feature it in the game. We love all the beautiful, and sometimes crazy hard, maps our community creates and wanted to share these with all of you. Simply click on the map and play it like you would any other!
Bug fixes

Rail Route is a train dispatcher simulator. You negotiate contracts, build rail roads, set up routes for trains and control the traffic. Unlock features of your dispatcher interface, upgrade railway network elements and research new technologies that allow you to automate the operations!
Manual Routing
Manual Routing is basic mode to control the rail roads from the beginning of the game. You set up switches and signals one by one. Nothing but your skill and focus prevent collisions.Automated Routing
Automated Routing helps when traffic becomes busy on a complex yard. You need a few clicks to set up all switches and signals en route. Collision avoidance included. Available later in the game when you unlock it and upgrade the signals.Building
Build your own rail network to optimize the traffic. Be creative and fill every possible space you have.Automation
Automation allows you to operate your railway network without your hands on. Your growing traffic does not lock you in the operations, freeing your hands for further expansion. You build the automation sensors and set up route to create when trains go by.Level Editor
Level editor allows you to create a custom board with everything that comes with it. Create a schematic of your hometown rail roads, your imaginary rail network or even model the Tube rapid transit system using it! The rectangles you see moving can be modern or historic trains, the underground trains, trams, monorails, just whatever you imagine.MINIMAL SETUP
