Major Update - V0.3.0

Sep 18

Hello Pioneros! We have been cooking behind the scenes, here is what is coming to the demo in the new major update 0.3.0. This update includes everything from graphical updates to enhanced vehicle physics and automation improvements. like employees with skills to smaller tweaks and bug fixes. So, without further delay, here is the new content:

Offline Play & Local Saves

You can now play offline with local saves. You can still play with your friends as usual by inviting them to your party via Steam. Once in-game, simply open the pause menu and invite them using the party menu in the top-right corner, or the usual steam invites. Any existing games started on online regions will be automatically migrated to a local save file when you launch the game, so you won't lose any progress!

Employee Rework: Skills & Hiring

Employees have received a major rework! To hire new staff, access the new PioLink app from the computer at either Cargo Garage or Rusty's, where job candidates will apply. From there, you can negotiate their salary and inspect their base skills.

Employees can have up to two skills out of four possible types: Driving, Crafting, Customer Service, and Recruiting. Skill levels range from 0% to 100%, the higher their skill, the better they will perform their job. Low skill levels carry negative penalties, such as worse customer reviews, slower work speeds, and a higher frequency of vehicle crashes.

Skills can be leveled up at any company-owned computer. Simply open the browser, navigate to the employee management section of the website, and you'll be able to assign training or fire staff as needed.

Added the crafting skill that allows to automate building of stickers, packaging and so on.

Also, employees now carry visually the items they're holding.

Vehicle Overhaul: New Speedometer, Sounds & Engine Damage

Vehicles have received a brand-new speedometer layout displaying RPM, fuel levels, and key vehicle status indicators, including a check engine light that alerts you when it’s time to visit the mechanic. We’ve also added turn signals (bound to Q & E by default).

Engine audio for all vehicles has been completely replaced with enhanced, high-quality sounds for a more realistic driving experience. In addition, handling across the entire vehicle roster has been retuned for smoother, more responsive control.

Finally, the engine damage mechanics have been completely reworked. Instead of instantly shutting down when damaged, an aging or damaged engine will now experience a progressive top-speed penalty as wear worsens. Higher wear levels will also cause gears to slip or misshift, keeping your RPMs high.

Visual Enhancements & Lighting Upgrades

We’ve upgraded the game’s overall look and feel with a round of fresh visual enhancements. You’ll notice new corona lens flares and emissive lighting for vehicles and streetlights that remain sharp and visible from a distance. Textures, roads, and environmental props across the map have also been refined.

Additionally, both indoor and outdoor lighting along with post-processing effects have been reworked, giving the entire game a much cleaner, richer, and more immersive atmosphere.

Character Animations & Ragdoll Physics

We’ve upgraded the character animation system! You’ll find brand-new idle and 'look around' animations, as well as improved foot placement (IK) and smoother animations when walking or jogging on slopes and hills.

We’ve also introduced active ragdoll physics! If you get hit by a vehicle, or if you press R manually, your character will now enter ragdoll mode. Additionally, vehicles can now hit and ragdoll pedestrians.

Dedicated Servers?

Will it have a dedicated server that we can run on our own hardware, without needing to connect to any third-party apps? Can we host it entirely on our own infrastructure, configure all the server settings, and manage our own community? Things like whitelisting players, kicking/banning users, and making sure only people who follow the rules and guidelines we set for our server can play? The dedicated server should keep running 24/7, with time progressing nonstop and no need for a player to host a session....

Demo Automation Update (part 1)

Jun 19

Hey everyone!

The 0.2.0 demo update is now live, and its the biggest update we've shipped so far. It touches core loop, adds a new district to the industrial area and lays the ground for automation systems that will be coming next.

This is part 1 of the automation update, part 2 coming soon.

Sleep System and Increased Day Length

You can now sleep in your motel bed to skip the night. If you're playing online or in co-op, everyone in the party must go to sleep for the night to skip.

To balance it, we extended day length to 48 minutes and night hours: they now run from 10 PM to 8 AM.

When sleeping the night, energy is fully restored.

New Police Station

There's a new police station (with interior) in the industrial district. Right now you can't get arrested, but its the first piece of the Civil Crimes System we're working on, which will eventually cover reckless driving (speeding, red lights, hitting pedestrians or street signs) and financial stuff like tax evasion or boss misbehavior.

[carousel autoadvance="true"]

[/carousel]

Industrial District Expansion

The map got bigger: we added a new area to the industrial district, which comes with new customers, a new property (more below) and some other interesting buildings that will be functional in the future. More demand, more orders.

[carousel autoadvance="true"]

[/carousel]

The city now feels more "lived in" and immersive. This breaks the grid monotony, has some elevation, curves and feels more organic.

Traffic AI

We also improved the intelligence of AI drivers. They can now anticipate collisions with players and other AI vehicles instead of only braking when an obstacle is 2m in front of them. If they see you coming in an intersection for example, they react accordingly. They’re rightfully scared of you. When they get stuck (for example, a player puts his car in the middle of the road) they can do more advanced maneuvers, or reverse if necessary and find the spot to escape. They have different patience levels so some drive more aggresively and honk, others are chill.

IronFleet Dealership + company vehicles

New dealership for commercial vehicles, with 3 new vehicles for sale.

The bigger change: you can now buy vehicles for your company instead of just for yourself. Company vehicles are shared, every member of your organization gets access to the same fleet. This was one of the most requested features and it matters a lot for the next point below.

Vehicle changes:

The Cangu got a visual rework.
New entry-level van: the Kabestie. It's cheap, has low storage capacity and is slow, but if you're just starting out, it'll get the job done.
Cangu Deluxe and Secuestrator (not available for buying in the demo)

[carousel autoadvance="true"]

[/carousel]

Cargo Garage and Employee Vehicles

You can now assign company vehicles to your employees, and they'll go out and fulfill orders way faster than on foot. This is the second automation iteration in the game - if you have the vans, the personnel and the garages, you load up multiple vans and dispatch several orders at once. Works also for port buying, you can buy way more and way faster in one batch if you send your employee with a vehicle.

The van you assign matters: it determines delivery speed and how many bulk orders fit in a single run. So the 3 new dealership vehicles aren't just cosmetic options - they're capacity upgrades for your logistics chain.

Each delivery also consumes fuel and has a risk of employees crashing the vehicle, so those are risk factors you'll have to account. For scale you will need shelves with fuel cans in your facilities.

Each garage has a fixed number of parking spots, and spots = how many vehicles you can run concurrently. The new Cargo Garage is a budget property in the new district designed exactly for this stage: cheap enough to afford early, with enough spots to get a small automated operation going before you can afford Ironyard.

[carousel autoadvance="true"]

[/carousel]

New unified Bills System

Taxes and employee salaries are now consolidated into a single Bills section on the business website, replacing the old fiscal cycle.

Here you can find typical operational costs for your company:

Employee Salaries
Property Taxes
Vehicle Taxes

Fair warning: if you don't pay on time, the government freezes certain actions (hiring, or expanding fleet/facilities) and starts stacking debt fines. Keep cash on hand!

Phone overhaul: three new apps

We removed the "Stats" tab from the main menu. Everything lives on your phone now, split across three new apps:

Tasks: Tracks two separate quest lines: your corporate objectives and a new set of personal story quests. If you just want to grind your empire without story distractions, you can toggle individual goals off, which also hides their map markers and notifications.

ID: Shows your personal attributes, records, and current VISA status. This one is setup for a bigger storyline we're building: a personal quest line about your family and working through the legal system to get Permanent Residency.

Jobs: A live directory of quick jobs around the city, with payouts listed and a one-tap GPS button to navigate to the work site. Useful when a bill is due and the company account is empty.

[carousel autoadvance="true"]

[/carousel]

QOL, UI, small stuff.

Storage and inventory panels now have a semi-transparent blurred background.
Vehicle trunks physically open and close when you interact with them. Small thing, but it bothered us that they didn't. Also the items in the trunk are visible, and react to movement.

The minimap got a new look, darker to better highlight icons.

Improved the UI for item price management as the old one wasn't clear.
Below market price you will sell more, but at the expense of less profits. Too high and you risk getting bad reviews. Also added fleet/facilities sections to centralize everything.

[carousel]

[/carousel]

That's it. The next update will come sooner. A lot of this one was groundwork that needed to happen first.

Let us know what feels off. Most of what's in 0.2.0 came from your feedback, so keep it coming. See you in the city.

Trucker Job - Intermediate, Hardwood Company Job Bug

Trucker Job says to go to Hardwood Company to pick up the lumber but I think the job mission is bugged because when I enter the truck it doesn't show me a GPS route to follow on map and when I get to Hardwood Company to load the lumber onto vehicle I cant reverse truck backwards inside the doorway of building as there is rocks in the way of the entrance. Hopefully you can fix issue, Thank you...

Needs improvement

The driving in this game is like really bad. It overcorrects way too fast. And I am not a fan of my car taking damage. Because of the bad driving I didn't play the demo for more than twenty minutes. You need to drive everywhere. But with these poor controls, no way. Also a First-Person-POV would be nice....
