Update 13: The Highlights

We've made some significant changes to the Construction UX. Right-clicking now acts as an "undo" button, taking you back a step. If you're holding an item, you either build it or drop it. If you're not holding an item, you can modify everything. We've also added visual guidance, with different grid colors to indicate your current state. You can configure this behaviour in the options:

We've introduced a new focus view for station configuration. This will allow you to manage your stations with greater precision.

We've also added a variety of new keybinds. The best part is that you can now rebind more freely, and we've made it so that duplicates are allowed. But that's not all. Here's the full list of what's new, updated, and fixed in Update 13:

Rail Route [linux] [280.41 M]

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.
