It’s been a long time since our last patch and with multiple delays, blood, sweat and tears that have been shed, we’re finally proud to announce the second patch for Train Life! As you can probably already tell, this is going to be a doozy of a patch note. Everything from Tracks and Railways to the HUD, gameplay and scenarios have been tweaked and fixes have been made. I know you all want to get into it, so without further ado, let’s dive right in! [h2]Changes & Fixes [/h2] [h3]Tracks & Railways [/h3] [list] [*] Tweaked some issues with the placement of electric lines – there were some players reporting electrical lines missing, now you’ll be able to make a zappy connection with your ET’s! [*] Tweaked some issues with lack of camera collision with stations elements [/list] [h3]HUD [/h3] [list] [*] Updated Block Occupancy icon under the mini map to display the state of not only the next (closest to the Player) blocking signal, but also the state of the following one (second closest one) [*] Updated GPS Destination Switcher above the mini map to display the remaining distance to the next route target when in Custom Route mode. This has been requested by the community many times, so hopefully you guys enjoy it! [*] Replaced the old Next Speed Limit icon on speedometer with the new, dedicated widget placed next to the Brake and Throttle indicators under the speedometer - now players will be able to see how far they are from the next Speed Limit sign [*] Fixed a problem with mini map auto-resize function not working. Now the mini-map will zoom out and in when moving forward or not. [*] Fixed a problem with vanishing "Reverse Train Direction" option from Radial Menu [*] Fixed a problem that caused displaying Navigation Mode Change icon as debug output [*] Fixed a problem with incorrect distance shown in Cargo minigame [*] Fixed a problem with finished contracts summary screen displayed improperly after using contract details screen [/list] [h3]Tablet [/h3] [list] [*] Introduced new Info tab, that aggregates the Codex and restored Production Tree tabs [*] Added to the World Map an option to clear current GPS route with single click [*] Changed codex formatting, added more images [*] Fixed a problem with incorrect cities counter displayed in Dashboard tab [*] Fixed a problem with inability of scrolling lists content while using a controller [*] Fixed problem with inability to zoom the World Map under some circumstances [*] Fixed a problem with CODEX pages flickering under some circumstances [/list] [h3]Gameplay [/h3] [list] [*] Incline/Decline Multiplier has been adjusted.
