Developer Note: Things that we're working on for the next patch!


Hello Engineers!

Thanks for taking the time in joining us once again in our weekly update regarding some of the things that we’re working on to improve Train Life. You all have been great in reporting bugs and giving us some great suggestion and we want to encourage to keep on doing your thing.

Keep in mind, these are for PC only, if you’re on console and you’re wondering what’s going happening on that end, please join the official Train Life Discord channel.

*Disclaimer: Take everything here with a grain of salt. These are things we are re-testing and doesn't mean that we will add all of these changes and fixes in the next patch, albeit, we'll try our best!

  • Inconsistent snow behavior in Alpine regions (The snow appears abruptly and only after nearing Salzburg. In the case the player reverses and drives forward again – it disappears and does not trigger again until reaching Salzburg)
  • Missing Key/Buttons prompts on the initial screen for the Orient Express scenarios (Basically, if you have an older save of Train Life and you updated to the newer version 1.10 the buttons on the right side of the screen are missing in the scenario)
  • One string for steam locomotive instructions is either shortened/elongated in most languages when using a controller (In the controls section where the player is being explained what they all do in the OE scenario – the first line of instructions is either over extended or shortened hiding what the instructions say)
  • Train Life crashes during the Paris - Vienna scenario
  • In the tutorial – the task completes itself before user input.
  • Passengers’ models clip through standard passenger wagons walls
  • Contracts to Vienna was generated for players with no DLC access
  • There have been reports of players getting these tasks when they don’t have the DLC installed. Which in short players without this DLC are not able to complete.
  • When you browse through wagons in pick-up menu, when attaching a broken train, the trains mesh disappears.
  • Train Derails when driving through the junction at London Main, despite driving at a low speed.
  • The station are at Berlin Main Station is too small and players are not able to start scenarios on the tracks between the entrances and platforms.

You can expect the next patch to be implemented within the next couple of weeks and feel free to let us know your thoughts on this type of communication between the you, the player and us the studio.

On that note, I wanted to thank you all for taking the time in reading this note, and make sure to follow Train Life on Twitter and join the official Discord channel as mentioned above. We do livestreams on our Twitch channel every Monday @ 7PM CEST where we face the questions you guys ask on our Discord channel head on!
