Dear community,

I would like to take a moment to talk about the EULA.
As seen in recent reviews there seems to be confusion regarding the EULA.

For clarification:

The EULA has not been changed and there has NO NEW EULA been added. The info that the EULA has been changed, or that there is a new EULA is a rumor and a false report.

The EULA was uploaded with the Steam greenlight before the release and has not been changed since then.

Every user has my full permission to play RAILROADS Online! via STEAM in Single and Multiplayer and to stream, post, share footage, screenshots etc. of Railroads Online! on the internet and all SOCIAL NETWORKS.

What is not legal is to remove the STEAM copy protection and to play the game over a COMPUTER NETWORK other than STEAM without my written permission.

Please like and share this message to make everyone aware.

Thank you for your support!

Kind regards
Stefan Kelnberger

Dear Community,

this is Keume, the programmer of this game.
Please take a moment and read my entire text before commenting.

I am aware that there is still a lot of potential for improvement, especially with regard to community management.
That's why I'm going to take time to restructure the entire team.
Since I can't estimate when the restructuring of the team will be completed, the Discord will remain closed until further notice, as I want to avoid incidents like the ones that happened recently.
As soon as there is news regarding the team, I will of course inform you about it.

I would like to personally apologize to the community and especially to all those affected for the injustice suffered. I can understand that you are upset, angry and sad about this situation.
It is my responsibility to ensure that such incidents do not happen. I have not fulfilled this responsibility. I will do my best so that such events do not happen again.

I will continue to work on the development. I will post updates to you regularly.
Despite all the rumours, I would like to deny that I have given up game development.

Due to the numerous forum posts I have decided to focus primarily on improving the existing version and removing existing bugs.
From the feedback I received on the spline update, I concluded that this needs to be adapted to the existing system. I will make this adjustment in parallel to improving the current version.

I'm sorry that there has been such unrest in the community. My wish remains that you continue to enjoy Railroads Online! and you don't have to worry about the further development of the game.

Best Regards
Keume

EDIT:
1. Spline Update: The update will be adjusted, so that you can use the current physics system with the benefits of the new and easier spline handling.
2. Gauge: The american 3ft (914mm) narrow gauge will stay and will not be removed or swapped with another gauge. In the future for versions beyond 1.0 i can provide other gauges if there is a demand in the community for that.
3. Time: As I am restructuring the team, I can not give you any timeframe yet but I will update you as soon as everything is clear.

Thank you for your support and feedback!

Best regards,
Keume

Dear community,
