0.6.3 - A new UI for train loading


The most visible change in this update is the new load selection system. It is simpler than its predecessors, but it is also more flexible for restricting what cargo and passengers can run on a route. There are four options:

  • Load anything Still the default; in this case a service will carry any and all types of passengers and cargo
  • Load only cargo and Load only passengers These options allow you to restrict a service to carry only cargo or passengers. From feedback we realised that most people who did want to customise loading, wanted one of these two options, so we've made them more easily accessible
  • Load custom When you choose this you are presented with a full list of cargo types and passenger types, and you can enable/disable them individually for total control

Alongside this we've reworked how the game draws UI screens to be more flexible. The new cargo system was our test patient for that new system, but we'll be progressively working through the UI in coming updates The full patch notes including bugfixes are on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2171550/view/509578689493598732
