I like those changes. Autosave for MP can be annoying for big maps.

Added "Show player names on minimap" option to graphics settings.
Make this for tags as well on the minimap :)

Tags are the way of the future.

Late Friday Release, after FFF. :shock:

I think this worth mentioning:
Optimizations: Improved performance when cursor moving off from recipes that have large tooltips.
No more lag now. Thanks! :D

Further performance improvements to the trains GUI.
Can you please put train management back to the backlog? Performance is nice, but we need at least:

* A way to name trains. I Know the names are early contributoes, but they are hard to keep track.
* A way to GROUP trains - with this grouping showing in the UI.
* Please show me the cargo of a train in the UI ;)

The moment you run more than a handfull of trains, the current UI is not really delivering any ergonomy.

While you are at it - make station names hierarchical. SOmething like "Mine-001/Blk" should be allowed and the selection should be a tree with Mine-001 as node and the subelements as subnodes. This would cut down the top number in my list by 80% beacuse every outpost of mine has a minimum of 3 stations at the moment.

Now, for trains themselves, I would love to see:

* A way to order a train to a specific station without setting a schedule. Handle for one off deliveries or getting around like in a shuttle. Bonus if I can click on a point on the map and it gets as close as possible (for expansions when you send the train home to come back with supplies).
* A way to drive a train semi-manual in that the throttle/brakes are overloaded based on signals. I find it extremely hard to go higher speeds because I will overrun red signals I am not even aware of. At a minimum, show me the next signal - distance and color - so I KNOW there is a red 3 segments away. Right now I have to keep speed down because otherwise I may tail a train waiting behind a signal. And those signals are impossible to read when driving a train on higher speed.

And while I am at it - can you please change your startup sequence? Check for an update BEFORE loading all the stuff (sprites etc.), just at the beginning. RIght now I spend some time loading, then are told that hey, I have an update available ;)

I second all of TheTom's train suggestions, and add that it would be great to have a set of train rules that are defined outside the train - the stations to stop at, the wait conditions, etc. Then, when placing a train on the rails, you can assign the rule-set to the train. Also, changing the rule-set changes all trains that have that rule-set link.

I would call it a "route", and you create the route, then tell the train to use the route, and changes to the shared route affect all trains sharing that route.

add these lines to your server-setting.json file.

Code: Select all

"_comment_autosave_only_on_server": "Whether autosaves should be saved only on server or also on all connected clients. Default is true.",

  "autosave_only_on_server": true,
should be in your updated server-settings example file. BTW thanks for doing that devs! 8-)

Haha, no more mini maps filled with names on massive multiplayer games like Arumba's or Steejo's, that was crazy

This could be done in addition to the current system and be unlocked via an endgame research. For single trains (such as outpost > unloading) you are better off having what we have now as it is simpler to learn, and per train easier to implement and manage
