This hot fix comes with various bug fixes, further performance improvements and fixes a crash related to the car wash.

[h3]Stability[/h3]

• Fixed a crash related to the Car Wash.
  

[h3]Bug Fixes[/h3]

• Ordering over 1000 units of anything should now be possible (in some saves it was still prevented with the last fix).
  
• Loans will now correctly subtract money and remove popularity. Loans will also automatically be paid off if you have enough money when the load period ends, rather than causing penalties.
  
• Using RMB when dropping cargo/boxes from delivery trucks will now always correctly return the box to the truck and the truck driver will no longer drive away with your goods if you do this on the last box of the set.
  
• We've disabled the 'Lift Car' button during the initial tutorial 'Fix the Car' quest, and enabled ordering of car parts on this quest already. The reason for this change is that players were getting stuck on this quest when they threw away the parts or failed to repair a car fully until they ran out of parts. This change should significantly decrease any chance of getting locked out of progress.
  

[h3]Performance[/h3]

• We've optimized NPCs so they use less resources when idling. Further optimizations have been made to parked cars as well. At higher gas station levels the measured performance increase should be between 10-20% with recommended hardware or above.
  We're continuing to look at further optimizations on both CPU and GPU.
  
• If you are noticing your performance dropping while washing cars, you can reduce the 'Effects' settings in Graphics Options to reduce the amount of particles that are being spawned and thus improve performance significantly.
  

It's this time of the year again and we are finally giving you the demo of another of our games: Food Truck Simulator. The demo becomes available later today on February 21st 2022 at 7 PM CET / 10 AM PST!
For this occasion, we decided to prepare a contest for everyone who wants to give it a whirl.

Jump behind the wheel and customize your truck as you like it, take a screenshot and share it on social media with #ftscuston to participate in the giveaway for a Gas Station Simulator key. We are giving out 10 keys.

We can't wait to see your creations!
Good luck and have fun!

A lot of the player base agrees, that beside a diner that will come with our Road Diner Simulator, the gas station could really do with a motel. That’s where Motel Simulator will come in. Like Road Diner, Motel Simulator will be very tightly integrated with both games and things you do on the gas station and/or at the diner, will influence the motel and vice-versa.

Head over to Motel Simulator’s store page and have a look what we plan on developing:

Road Diner and Motel are by far not the only things that are happening in the world of Gas Station Simulator right now. Not only are we working on the next update with more improvements, within a week or two we will also announce the first two DLCs for Gas Station Simulator that are both already being worked on.
