Transportation Update

#1

Post by Lobby »

Unbenannt.png
Back in 2019, we asked our Discord community what you wanted most. The clear second-place vote after online mode was a transportation overhaul. We’ve been working on it since 2021, and after some time in beta, it’s finally ready for everyone.

What's inside:
  • A complete rework of the transportation system for buses and trains, plus a brand-new monorail
  • Refreshed icons
  • Support for non-square buildings
  • New music tracks and a soundtrack manager to choose your favorite background music
We wish you lots of fun exploring everything this update has to offer. We could tell you all about it—but it’s much more fun to discover it for yourself along the way!

My bus and train system disappeared 🥲 And I was left with a heavy debt! How do I get back the bus system?

Honestly i didnt like this update. The icons used are so bad looks very cheap. Earlier icons were very nice looked more better. The continious changes in the game makes it harder and harder. For users who have many cities and all with huge income and huge populations suddenly over 1 night became in dept and with low population and no further information or even notifications! You need to guess what happened or reach out support who will take 3 to 5 days to reply with simple response (check in your finance whats costing more money). And now with transportation! Bus and metros are completely stopped and i am supposed to recreate all the routes manually (which is impossible) and then guess how you can make it running. Yes i like the new transport management but there should be a way to fix and create that routes manaully especially in big cities and maps!! Honestly thats so bad, i guess it time for to delete but i know that i will be so hurt to leave this game as it was my favourite over years and it stayed number 1 for meeven after trying other games. But with this kind of changes and updates i believe i lost the passion to keep on fixing and guessing what happened.

Since the game update, vehicles only travel to nearby locations. Is it just me experiencing this?

I actually was confused when my music playlist dissapeared, then I realised the new folder.

The new updated icons made me wonder whatever happened to theotown.
As for the transportation thing, Monorail is really unnecessary, instead trams would be better.

Otherwise, the update is great.

I agree that the monorail is not very good and it would be a good idea to add a tram and trolleybus.

I hope an external plugin can be added for viewing, as it existed in previous versions. Additionally, I hope the route settings for buses and other vehicles can be easier to prioritize shorter distances, avoiding long detours to reach the next stop. It would also be great to add a feature that allows manual route setting to the next stop. Thank you.

The slope of the road and bridge is a bit too steep. Although it is rarely used, thank you for your attention.
