Community Update #2 (version 1.9) has been released



Tycoons!
Today we’re releasing free Community Update #2 (version 1.9) for PC.
The new update adds loads of community-requested features, such as DLC scenarios being mod-able, as well as comfort-functions and some more general tweaks, like list sorting to make the daily business of an up-and-coming Tycoon easier.

Changes:
  • DLC scenarios are now mod-able.
  • Increased the maximum number of trains and stations.
  • Hotkey "p" added to skip the currently played music track.
  • The train list now shows any problems that employees currently have.
  • Added tooltips to train list sorting.
  • New option to disable all newspapers, except historic newspapers.
  • New options to filter train lists.
  • New list for stations.

  • New icon added to mark trains delivering goods to warehouses. They do not show a negative balance/values.
  • Freight and express research topics are marked in tech-tree.
  • Added a German newspaper logo.
  • During build mode: Areas, which are reserved by an industry for later expansions, are now highlighted in red color
  • After company merge, assigned employees are no longer marked as “new”
  • The speed of trains with missing supplies, such as water, has been reduced.

  • Fixed: Issue with showing costs for inactive territories in the interface.

  • Fixed: University title and description in town dialog.
  • Fixed: Some routing issues caused by signal-controlled stations.
  • Fixed: Train showing permanent "Being serviced" state.
  • Achievement fix for “Just in beaver” - triggers for factories that were bought or built
  • Achievement fix for “The Customs and the Seven Young Rail Spikes” - this can now only be unlocked within the Germany scenario
  • Train is no longer marked as unloading if it has no load.
  • Fixed: In the scenario "Dominion Day" (The Great Lakes - DLC), the 8th and 9th tasks cannot be completed as "gold"
