New free route for Łódź North Region DLC owners, arriving in mid-September!

You asked for it, so it is on the way! The 45 km route between Kutno and Łowicz is coming to the Łódź North Region DLC. All DLC owners will get the new route for free.

It closes the gap in the Łódź North Region network and gives you a continuous run across the whole area. It is also a section we expect you will be using a lot in the years ahead.

See you on the line!

The SimRail Team

Dear Players,

Today we're releasing another SimRail update, a maintenance one this time, focused on fixes reported by you after the launch of the Łódź North Region DLC.

Most of the work went into the Łódź region sceneries: collisions, missing objects, snow left in places it shouldn't be, and a number of small details around platforms, elevators and roads.

We've also fixed several multiplayer issues, including the duplicated S103 signal in the Łowicz Główny panel and the detection of the controlling station on additional posts. The misrouted train system now checks the second station as well, which should put an end to trains being sent to the wrong lines around Łowicz.

The 36WEd received a batch of fixes too, and two achievements that refused to unlock are now working as intended.

Thank you for every report, please keep them coming. Below you'll find the full list of changes.

MULTIPLAYER
- Fixed the duplicated S103 signal on track 104 in the Łowicz Główny panel
- Fixed detection of the controlling station on additional posts (automatic time insertion and permission to pass a signal at danger)
- Improved the misrouted train system: it now also checks the second station (e.g. Łowicz Przedmieście to Łowicz Główny, trains being sent to the wrong lines)
