Official update history
On the site: Build 23659680
Up to date

- Added support for Xbox controller.
- Added a default save name when creating a new save.
- Added a default game name when starting a new game.
- Fixed a bug where clicking on the inventory background made it impossible to close.

- Fixed a bug where mouse sensitivity in inspect mode did not affect the camera rotation speed.
- Corrected the time calculation for achieving Swiss Cheese.
- Fixed a bug where the number of FPS affected the rotation speed of held items.
Update 18.10.2024
- The timing of the repair of the destroyed bridge was changed so that after the bridge is blown up before Tutal'skaya station, you can connect the wagons and transport them across the bridge.
- Fixed the railway wagons disconnection area at Bolotnoye station, where wagons could not be delivered correctly if they were positioned at the end of the area.
- Changed the currency from Dollars to Rubles.
- Added backlighting to the speedometer.
- Reduced the movement speed of the character inside the locomotive to make it smoother.
- Added more shooting NPCs who move around; some stationary shooting NPCs now also move.
- Decreased NPC shooting accuracy.
- Balanced the rewards for some mafia missions.
- Improved the spawn of AI trains when traveling the same route multiple times.
- Fixed the bug where the locomotive save would not load correctly after moving several kilometers away from it.
- We have mostly restored the division of game files into smaller elements to minimize the required disk space during game updates.
Info: We are still working on making transport tasks offered randomly in both directions to make gameplay more freeform and increase the game's replay value. Our goal is also to have a selection field for transport tasks at train stations to give you as much freedom as possible.
Implementing these changes will take about a month. During this time, we will also address the most critical bugs in parallel. After all this, we will make another route length available. Thank you for your patience.

- In the second section of the locomotive, there is no longer a need to turn off the lights and heaters to remove the panel blocker key.
- Lights and heaters now operate independently for each section of the locomotive.
- The lights and heaters are now powered by the battery.
- Buffer red lights can now be turned on independently of the buffer white lights.
- The lights in the second section of the locomotive now shine with the same intensity as those in the first section.
- Brakes are no longer dependent on the compressor and use pressure from the main reservoir.
- The compressor pumps pressure in the main reservoir up to 9.2 kg, then shuts off and turns back on at 7 kg.
- Fixed the bug where the pressure in the main reservoir would not drop.
- Setting the main brake handle to the release and charge position no longer fills the main reservoir.
- Removed the sign to lower the pantographs just before Oyash station to avoid conflict with the red light.
- Saving the game while the locomotive was on a switch caused the locomotive to disappear when loading that save in a newer version of the game. This bug has been fixed. It will work for saves made in the new version of the game. If someone saved the train on a switch and lost the locomotive upon loading before this update, they should load their previous save. (Probably an autosave).
- Fixed the bug that caused the game time in saves to be counted incorrectly
- Fixed the bug that caused loading a save from the main menu and the end-game menu to not work with a double click of the left mouse button or by pressing enter..

- Added the ability to sell weapons. You can find the right people in bars and shops.
- Once again, we've slowed down the wear of locomotive parts.
- Increased the maximum speed of the locomotive to 100 km/h in zones with a 60 km/h speed limit and to 70 km/h in zones with a 40 km/h speed limit. Exceeding these maximum speeds will result in derailment. When you exceed speed limits (40, 60), locomotive parts wear out faster.
- Fixed the bug causing desynchronization of level state saves, which among other things, caused the locomotive to disappear after exiting the night club. This will work from new saves onwards.
If anyone wants to send us saves with bugs, they are now located in a new location:

Thank you very much for your activity on the forum and for helping each other out! It really helps us save time and focus on improving the game.

- Fixed the bug with the highlighting of the "Coupler lever." Now, when disconnecting wagons, the correct lever are highlighted.
- Improved the transport task system to avoid situations where disconnecting wagons in the designated area did not count towards the task. Unfortunately, due to the nature of this bug, we have not been able to fix it for already corrupted save files.
- Bug with disappearing locomotive - it turned out that the source of the bug was a major issue with the world save system. We have overhauled it to a more reliable system, but if the problem persists, we will have to make even deeper changes to the saving system. We apologize for the inconvenience.
- Fixed the bug that caused the tutorial to break after reaching the first signs without skipping the last tutorial information after connecting the wagons, making it impossible to deliver the wagons. Unfortunately, currently, corrupted save files will not be fixed upon loading.
- If someone couldn't continue the mission in the night club due to the missing suitcase, they can now do so. We have implemented a temporary solution for situations where players replaying the game could load a previously played version of the club upon entering. A complete solution to the problem will be added at a later time.
- Fixed the bug where wagons appeared twice in the same place, creating the impression of clipping through each other. Unfortunately, currently, this will not be fixed in save files where it has already happened.
- Fixed several situations where wagons to be picked up were not in place. Save files with this situation should be fixed.
- We have already found a solution to the problem of visual artifacts in the locomotive after lowering the pantographs with "Projector Light" turned on, and we will add it in the next update.
By the way. Have you heard about our collaboration with Rolling Line game?

- Fixed the bug with the disappearing locomotive.
- Fixed the crash after leaving the night club.
- If there are no railway wagons to pick up, they should now appear. We tested it on the saves you sent us. Thank you!
After the last update, we noticed that some players experienced crashes when starting a new game, and possibly also when loading a saved game. In such cases, please verify integrity of game files.
Players without a 10th gen Intel processor or newer who cannot launch the game through Steam can go to the game folder and launch it directly via the .exe file.

- Fixed the respawning of NPCs after loading the game who had previously died. This will work on new saves.
- Fixed dead animals often falling under the map after loading, which we believe was causing crashes after leaving the night club.
- Fixed crashes after leaving the club, at least we hope so. We are about 90% sure that the changes we made to the code will prevent crashes from saves.
- if there are no railway wagons to pick up, they will try to respawn, which should work.
- Fixed the bug with the disappearing locomotive.
If any of the above issues persist, please let us know!
We are continuously analyzing your reported problems and striving to ensure the game runs stable. This is our plan for the near future, so expect frequent updates. As soon as we deal with the bugs, we will start updating with new content.
