Hot-fix 1.1.1

[h2]Dear Survivors,[/h2]

It's been a month since the Pandemic Train was released. Thanks to all of you who played. We truly hope you enjoyed the game even a little bit.
We're doing our best to improve the game toward your expectations, even if you report something easy to fix during the weekend. Therefore, we have a little hot fix for you today!

[h2]What does the fix say?[/h2]
    This hotfix contains a fix for the following two bugs reported by you as strongly influencing the experience of playing Pandemic Train after the last update:

  • When the previous update launched, players who had unfinished runs could not buy any new modules.
  • Leaders, despite having purchased the "expert" profession upgrade, did not have this upgrade after leaving HQ by train.


[h2]What's coming?[/h2]
Keep an eye on Pandemic Train, because we're getting closer to letting you in on a secret or two about the roadmap for the game's future. What would you like to get the most?

Remember to stay on the right track and keep your train going!

[h2]Attention, Survivors![/h2]

We're thrilled to announce the arrival of the first update for Pandemic Train, packed with exciting new features and improvements to enhance your gaming experience. Here's what you can expect:

[h3]New Salesman Kulson:[/h3]

[h3]Travel Innovation - "Jump" to selected locations:[/h3]
Harness the power of metacurrency to leap to your chosen destination! With the latest update, Kovalsky's happy to smuggle you and your crew, enabling strategic movements from HQ across the map… if only you have some extra metacurrency to offer him in exchange. Plan your routes wisely and stay one step ahead of the pandemic.



[h3]Persistent Train Modules:[/h3]
Your train is now more resilient than ever! After facing the challenges of the pandemic head-on, your train's modules will remain intact upon your return to headquarters or even after unfortunate incidents resulting in the loss of a life. Keep building and fortifying your train for the ultimate pandemic survival.

[h3]Module Schematics Remain After Death:[/h3]
Fear not, engineers! In the face of adversity, your hard-earned module schematics will persist even in the event of death. Your knowledge and progress are not lost, ensuring a more rewarding and strategic gameplay experience.

Get ready to dive back into the world of Pandemic Train with these awaited by you features! We appreciate your dedication to the game and hope these enhancements add a new layer of excitement to your railroading adventures.
