Patches of the previous week and what's next?

Thank you for reporting the bugs you found in the previous update!

We already patched some of them. For example, ones that could force you to unlock an already unlocked country or losing airport level after loading saved game.

We’re now working on the next patch.
In the meantime, we’re working on Daily Scenarios mode, which is now actively tested.

We also have an idea to collect e-mails of those who want to receive messages about major updates and passwords to closed testing branches. Will it be interesting for you?

How about joining our Discord server? Different game tactics are discussed there, and sometimes you can directly chat with the developers :)

Update of October 27, 2022 - the new save/load system!

A new update is available on Steam.

It took one of our programmers almost half a year to re-work a big portion of game code connected with loading various game modes, saves, restarts etc. Many scripts have been re-written from scratch. All these updates are necessary to make our work over the game easier and to release patches quicker. There were many rare bugs with save/load system, and now they should be fixed.

Right now, we have more than 50 bugs found by our testers and players. Most of them are minor and don't affect gameplay, but we still intent to fix them. We'd like to see a product of high quality before we release the game (the date is to be announced later).

We have something interesting in mind for you, but that's for another post :)

If you encountered any problem in the game, please contact us so that we can fix it in the next update.

Thanks for supporting us!

September 10, 2022 patch - fixes for known bugs

A new patch is available on Steam, fixing three nasty bugs:

Fixed planes that could freeze when you load a save. It can still occur when loading and old save file which already had this problem, but now it's only cosmetic and shouldn't repeat again.
Fixed order of unlocked countries in UAC mode. Before, the game could force you to unlock China or Mongolia right after Austria. There also were versy similar errors with Afghanistan, Oman and Nigeria.
Fixed planes that could stick together when you load a save.

Update of August 23, 2022 - more optimiztions and fixes

We just released an update that increases performance of the game and fixes some problems.

Now, even when there are tons of routes and hundreds of planes, the game should work much better than before.

Here's what we did:
- Optimized movement and rotation of planes
- Optimized creation of passengers
- Fixed a memory leak that could occur if you're playing for a long time.

We're waiting for your feedback! If you encountered any performance issues, please report whether it's better now. Thank you! In the meantime, we are working on the next update/

Progress in game optimization!

We noticed that most of the negative feedback is based on low performance in some situations. Indeed, performance drops when player unlocks really many cities and spawns hundreds of planes (it's noticeable only in Free Mode - it's almost impossible to spawn that many planes in other modes). We are working on fixing this problem, in particular we are optimizing algorithm of calculating plane's position on the map and generating passengers in airports.

The work is still not done, but you can already see the first results - hundreds of planes and stable 60 frames per second! At the same time, we are refactoring code that launches different game modes, loads and saves the game. In the future, it will allow us to work on the game more effectively and will fix dozens of bugs.
