Patch Notes for 1.0.13f1 hotfix - Steam & Microsoft Store

[co_avanya]

Amazing job, thank you!
We can have at Game pass also this update yaaaaas!
Could we have landmark buildings also please!?

The Landmark Buildings and Tampere map are a reward for preordering the game and not available for players on Game Pass.

Thank you for this!

Could you maybe publish a list which shows what bugs are acknowledged and which are being worked on?
That would be a great thing to keep up with the process and progress.

Have a great day!

I'm afraid we don't have a public list, but the support forum shows you which reports are listed as "Confirmed", which means we have logged them and are investigating them based on their priority.

What does this even mean? I hope you are still looking into this... Getting U turns trough white lines crossing two highways, even when rebuilding it after the update and waiting. Traffic is a the main part of the game (at least for me), less stray pet and radio ad fixes and more AI/road improvements.

Pathfinding is based on various factors that add up to a "cost" which the game uses to pick the best option. We've increased the cost for illegal u-turns, so they should happen less, but if vehicles are unable to find a different route or alternate routes have a much higher "cost", then they will still make u-turns. If you're still seeing this happen a lot, please add your observations to one of the existing threads on the topic in the support forum. That's the best way for us to look into whether you're seeing expected behavior or something that needs to be tweaked.

The list of confirmed bugs is large and we have no visibility of what the priorities are and which issues are being fixed for the next patch

Increase the "cost" of crossing a street with no crosswalk, please.

And the "cost" of walking 8 hours to work and another 8 hours back instead of driving for 20 minutes...there are no cars on the roads and a million 40k poly citizens wandering around walking over highways to get to work only to turn around and go back home because they got there at the end of their shift.

My trash is getting picked up (going from red to green) but the trash icon still appears... Also demolished all trash facilities multiple times.

Have you reported this issue as a new bug in the forum session?

The garbage simulation has kicked in, I have never seen so many trucks!!

Amazing how the game deals with the height difference.

The patch broke my city.

I have litterally TOO much building to replace, more than half city of 500k people. Why you let me to start the city if the patch broke the save games? Why do you let this game come out if there was the possibility that patches would broke save games?

I'v tried to swap my building one at one, it's and endless job............ my garbage was working OKAY, now it's all garbage everywhere, and i have more than 10x times the garbage inciretaror i need....

I was playing and enjoying the game with all the bugs, with all the performance issue, with 0.3 effective simulation speed, with pedestrian crossing everywhere and destroy all the traffic management.... now it was all useless thanks to your patch

How can you ask people to change all their buildings and think this is a Okay behavior.... GG

I think we need to demolish the houses where the garbage icon doesn't go away and not the garbage service buildings.
Misunderstood that too.

My icons are gone now and seem to stay away. But I feel like the garbage isn't processed correctly and is not "count" correctly.
I actually have more free capacity on my landfills than the game tells me. Also I have a very low workload on my incinerators.
And shouldn't the empty button on a landfill send trucks to my incinerators and empty the landfill?

Sadly I still have probs.

Just start a new city and be happy =)

i have to agree with Artax,

the garbage is getting worse and worse in my city. Playing 5 hours with the patch i noticed my garbage buildings seems to process and work because their storage goes down. But most of the buildings have only 1/X trucks on road, on other hand my city is full of garbage trucks? I did not count but it must be over 30 or 40 trucks.
After 5 hours playing more and more buildings show garbage symbol and people start complaining about garbage. Never seen this before. Maybe i start removing the buildings, but if i have to do will all buildings in the city, it will be a mess, especially if have to do one by one otherwise game crash. That’s ridicules.

And really, starting a new city is not an answer/option. After playing 40+ hours in one city you don’t want to start again.

@∆tlαntic4: hope that’s not the answer from the devs. Imagin, patch comes in one month and dev say you have to start new city to fix all bugs. And patch in 6 month comes and the same. LOL
If that’s really the case, then i will uninstall the game.

Despite all the things with the game, i enjoyed it. I think everyone who was playing for more than 40 hours did.

I prefer a path that fixes the problem but has to start the city from scratch than having no fix at all

I won't start a city before this city is ended, it's not acceptable a patch that broke a save game in a full released game.


The more and more i read it, your answer is litterally no sense at all.

i mean you are right, but at the same time we knew the game was not finished and I at least assumed my first (and maybe 2nd and 3rd?) cities would be broken by updates at some point. It's fun to play now, but I wouldn't get too attached to any current city. Kinda like our long lost first characters in GTAO in 2013 lol. (not that it left a memorable scar in my mind or anything).

No, sry, but no.
The game was released at full price.
If they broke my city i wasted all the hours i played.
It's not acceptable.
It's a punishment versus the ones who mostly played the game until now.

 

[SuspectPizza]

Great job, CO! I really appreciate the simultaneous release on both Steam and GamePass/MS Store.

 

[∆tlαntic4]

Não, desculpe, mas não.
O jogo foi lançado com preço integral.
Se eles destruíssem minha cidade, eu desperdiçaria todas as horas que joguei.
Não é aceitável.
É um castigo contra aqueles que mais jogaram até agora.

The game was released with numerous bugs, and this is already a reality. Updates can and will potentially disrupt existing cities. The developers will do their best to ensure backward compatibility, but it's likely that there will be patches that could break everything, and we may have to start from scratch. Accept the reality or consider returning in six months when everything is expected to be rectified, or be prepared to endure patches like everyone else. If your city is broken, accept it, CO will not release a patch to fix it.

"Updates can and will potentially disrupt existing cities"

This is the most insane thing i have read in history of videogames, have you have ever played a pc game?

If patches break save games, it means IT'S AN ALPHA STATE GAME, not even beta.

This is a full release game, the sentence "Updates can and will potentially disrupt existing cities" it's NOT ACCEPTABLE

It makes USELESS to play the game and to build a city, do you understand this?

I completely agree that the game should not have been released in this state. However, since it has already been launched, it's highly likely that patches will continue to disrupt existing cities.

If this is true than to create a city right now it's a total waste of time.

This is important, devs should say somenthing on this, future patch will destroy our cities??

 

[kokuryuha]

Please note that existing garbage notifications in your current saves may not clear properly unless the building is rebuilt, however, new buildings and saves created after this patch shouldn't have this issue.

I feel like deleting the actual buildings with built up trash (as opposed to the garbage collecting facilities) had more effect, but still getting fair build ups. Can we get confirmation on which to bulldoze?
