Patch 3

Patch 3 is now live with the following changes:
  • Fixed two different possible crashes when driving a lost AI train to its destination manually
  • Fixed a possible crash when unlocking a Steam achievement

Patch 2

Patch 2 is now live with the following changes:
  • Fixed crash when unlocking the mouse pointer and exiting the track layer by using mouse scroll wheel on "hop off"
  • Fixed turnout building when unlocking the mouse pointer and clicking on "build turnout"
  • Fixed key mapping to recognise modifier keys (shift, alt, ctrl) and combinations of such keys
  • Added settings option to restore default keys

Patch 1

The first post-release patch is live! This quick patch fixes an audio crash with the error message "ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null" and adds a graphics option to disable shadows.

There appears to be some kind of Unity bug that causes shadow rendering to crash on some systems with the error message:
InvalidOperationException: RenderPass Render Shadow Maps was not provided with an execute function

or
ArgumentException: Trying to access resource of type Texture with an invalid resource index 42.

If you are constantly getting a crash with either of these error messages, please disable shadows from the graphics options (via Settings in the main menu).

Fourth pre-release patch

The following changes are now live:
  • Fixed changed key mappings to save and load correctly
  • Fixed steering menu option text flickering
  • Fixed turnout building and removal in some cases (track layer should no longer go on an invalid switch and then derail)
  • Added menu option to derail vehicles on foot (you can use this to "pause" an AI train for a minute)
  • Added option to change rerailing to resetting (you can use this to reset your train if it's stuck but it also works on AI trains)
