Park Beyond News

[h3]Note from the Dev team[/h3]

We are happy to bring you Patch 2.3.0 along with the release of Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget! Patch 2.3.0 comes with a long list of bug fixes, several Quality of Life improvements and a ton a free content for everyone.

We are extending the theme world of Park Beyond with a full new theme - High Fantasy - containing a new Flat Ride, scenery objects, modular structures and animatronics, entertainers. Everything you need to build your high fantasy or medieval park areas. To help the immersion we are also bringing you a fitting new coaster type along with the theme. The Wooden Coaster as a new main addition allows you to construct or rebuild your favorite wooden coasters with their unique supports.

But the Wooden Coaster is not the only new coaster type. Patch 2.3.0 also contains the Monorail track type, each of the new track types coming with all new coaster cars! To get a taste of Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, we have also added the Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget Pendulum ride for everyone.

For Patch 2.3.0, we overhauled the water system in Park Beyond. Besides many bug fixes in this area, we have improved the placement feedback for water and added a live preview of the water plane. On top of this, placed water planes can now be selected - just like paths in a recent update - and you can change the water visuals without deleting and replacing the water. Water deletion with the demolish mode also received several feedback improvements.

Thank you all for your ongoing support, feedback and engagement! Happy building!

[h3]Known Issue[/h3]
Please be aware of an issue introduced with Patch 2.3.0 in which coasters and coaster prefabs that have their "Train Pass Number" set to 1 or higher are not working correctly and won't stop at the station anymore. We will provide a hotfix for this issue shortly and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause in enjoying your creative coaster creations.

[h3]Notes from Dev Team: [/h3]

Patch 2.1.0 contains multiple simulation changes, which not only fixes several bugs but also overall improves and changes how we handle the coaster simulation.

These changes only apply for newly created coasters. Therefore, you may notice odd or buggy looking behavior on your already placed coasters or downloaded prefabs. Simply open the coaster editor and run the course test again, afterwards it should work as normal again and you can overwrite your old prefab. If needed, you may have to do slight adjustments to the tracks or modules to make sure the safety test is successful.

If you have a coaster prefab uploaded to the community content, you may encounter the same issue. You can fix it by following the same steps as above: Enter the coaster editor, re-test the safety of your coaster, and then upload the updated prefab to the community content.
We are looking forward to your feedback and seeing many more of your creations!
