The International Simutrans Forum

A new version of Simutrans-Experimental is available to-day: Simutrans 111.0 Experimental 10.11. See here (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=1894.0) for more information on how to download, install and set up the latest version. For those already familiar with the installation and setup, here are some quick links:

   
• Windows binaries (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/simutrans-experimental.zip)
• Linux binaries (http://www.43-1.org/%7Esimutrans/simutrans-exp/i386/simutrans-exp-2012-05-03-5b81baf) (i386)
• Linux binaries (http://www.43-1.org/%7Esimutrans/simutrans-exp/amd64/simutrans-exp-2012-05-03-5b81baf) (x64)
• Linux binaries (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/simutrans-experimental-x64-server.bz2) (x64 - no graphics server)
• Linux binaries (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/nettool) (x64 - nettool)
• Configuration files (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/simutrans-experimental-config.zip) Updated for this version

Edit: Added links to Linux versions.

Note that the Windows binaries contain the Windows version of the no-graphics server and Nettool. Neither the configuration files, Nettool nor Makeobj have been updated for this version. This is a bugfix version, which fixes reported issues in 10.10. I have included the version compiled with IPv4 only in the Windows binaries, as some users were reporting frequent desyncs when using Windows XP in 10.4.

Simutrans-Experimental 10.11 (together with Pak128.Britain-Ex 0.8.3) can be played online. See here (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=8969.msg83568#msg83568) for details of the server.

This is a bug fix release. Not all planned changes and patches have been applied - those are still planned for the next major release. A full list of changes follows.

Changes since 10.10

   
• FIX: Settings for early electricity consumption were historically inaccurate: electricity generation was set up, in the UK at least, as early as 1882.
• CHANGE: Where a town's electricity supply is less than 1MW, show the amount in units of KW instead.
• FIX: Goods and passengers repeat their destination in the passenger list (omikron)
• FIX: Corrupted text in city power display
• CHANGE: Various minor enhancements to the English translation texts, including new city name components
• CHANGE: Clarify GUI for prohibitive way constraints
• FIX: Crash when selecting "upgrade" in the replacer window when the vehicle to which he vehicle in question is to upgrade is not avaialable yet.
• FIX: Incorrect behaviour and possible crashes when deleting substations.
• FIX: Crashes on loading in some cases (ultimate cause not determined, but this seems to fix it).
• FIX: The interest figures and credit limits were incorrectly calculated when players had very large sums of money.
• FIX: Power line connexions did not respect access rights.
• FIX: Private car routes were not refreshed when they ought to have been refreshed (Note - this can cause very slow performance on games with many cities unless "assume_everywhere_connected_by_road" is enabled)
• CHANGE: Making a way that is already public public will result in it being set as unowned.
• FIX: Stack overflow in some cases.

Feedback and testing

Thanks also to all those who have tested Simutrans-Experimental and provided useful feedback: it is very much appreciated. Any feedback from this version would, as ever, also be very much appreciated, including (1) the new features from 10.4 (access, revenue sharing, player colour saving/transmission); (2) online play (see here (http://simutrans-germany.com/serverlist_ex/) for a list of Simutrans-Experimental servers); (3) general bug reports; (4) information as to how well-balanced that the game is; (5) any difference in approach/strategy needed for Simutrans-Experimental as over Simutrans-Standard; and (6) any other useful feedback.

Thanks again to all those who have worked to test Simutrans-Experimental, and happy playing!
