Highlights:
- Waypoints for line construction (hold shift to place a waypoint)
- Optimisation of performance, especially with high numbers of employees and buses
- Optimisation of RAM consumption and fixing of memory leaks and resulting crashes (e.g. when building long lines, ordering many buses, painting)
- Significant optimisation of the loading time (the loading time of old savegames is still very high until they have been loaded and saved once with the new version)
- New faster save and load system, which also prevents the "Unexpected Mark Stack Overflow" error from occurring after the next save
- Instead of 10, there are now 20 map extensions possible, which means that a game area of up to 1,600 km² (40 km x 40 km) can now be unlocked (up to now, up to 576 km² (24 km x 24 km) were possible)
- In the shift schedule there is now a settings menu to set the desired break between two shifts for buses and bus drivers
- Bulgarian translation and currency added (many thanks to Daniel Petkov!)
Shift schedule and timetable:
- In the shift schedule settings, it is now possible to specify whether all tours within a shift must have the same preferred vehicle group
- If line changes are allowed on certain lines, these are now more reliably taken into account and built into shifts
- For lines with several different timetables, more sensible shifts are now generated by avoiding unnecessary service trips
- Automatic allocation of buses to the respective preferred vehicle groups now works more reliably
- Fixed a bug where the shift plan for some days could not be displayed in rare cases
- Editing stops in advanced timetable mode no longer leads to an error message without reason ("No route could be determined for the selected stops")
- Fixed a bug where everything was greyed out after the above error message appeared and the game had to be restarted
Map:
- When building public service lines, it is now more clearly displayed what still needs to be connected to the line and what is already connected
- Passengers can now no longer travel on service journeys
- Fixed a bug that prevented passengers from travelling after 0 o'clock
- Fixed a bug that caused passengers to board a bus that would not leave for more than 15 minutes, even though a bus of the same line with an earlier departure was available
- Up to 250 stops can now be added to a line
- Fixed green areas when loading maps near national borders
Employees:
- Fixed various bugs where various tasks such as refuelling, washing were not performed and the bus could then no longer be used
- Fixed bug where "Employee can't find the way" was incorrectly displayed
- Drivers no longer complain about not having enough work while on holiday or training
- Bus drivers on leave are no longer suggested for assignment to a shift that is about to start
Buses:
- Even if a bus has only minor damage, a smoke effect is now always displayed so that you can see at a glance whether the bus needs to be repaired or not
- Fixed a bug where buses would sometimes sit in the depot for hours with a "running shift" status
- When buying several buses at the same time, the correct amount is now always debited from the account
- New camera in the paint shop, which can also be used to move along the bus
- Fixed a bug that caused the selection made when choosing bus upgrades to be reset automatically all the time
- Fixed a bug where used buses could have a defective air conditioner even though there was no air conditioner installed
- Fixed a bug where buses for sale were no longer shown in the list
- Corrected the position of the smoke effect on some buses
- Adjusted the scaling of the Lion's City A78
Building:
- When moving an object, it is no longer deleted when cancelled with Escape, but moved back to its original position
- Fixed a bug where old parking places on the edge could no longer be deleted
Modding:
- Fixed a bug where the mod overview always jumped to page 1 in the list
- Fixed bug where mods could not be updated if they were not on page 1
UI:
- Improved readability of complaints from customers in the service centre
- The current line network coverage is now displayed in the research menu
- Tooltips with hints (info boxes) are now hidden more reliably
- Fixed several bugs that caused some UI elements to be cut off at some screen resolutions
- Hourly wage in the employee overview is now rounded correctly
- In the bus driver selection when spontaneously assigning a shift, the stress bar is now displayed with the correct colour
Other:
- New notification when the data volume of an internet contract is used up
- The M hotkey can now be used to switch between the operating area and the map
- "Back to main menu" now works reliably
- Fixed a bug where too much money was deducted when extending the map
- Fixed a bug where a loan was not removed after it was fully paid off
- Fixed a bug where the camera could not be moved with right click at times
- Fixed crash under MacOS
- Visitors to the service centre no longer spawn too slowly during busy periods, preventing many customers from going to the service centre until after closing time
