[unoace1006]

Added snow on impostors (trees)

My OCD thanks you. Great job

We'll keep fixing bugs and will release the fixes with the first public beta of the modding support!

Will the next patch be at the end of March?

 

[Eyrax]

Sounds good this update.
Could it be that it may take longer until it's available on GeForce NOW? Currently, I'm getting the error code 0x8003001F and the game cannot be started. I've read some FAQ which said that this error can occur if the publisher hasn't updated the game on GeForce NOW yet.

You made my day!
First time I see my ships exporting goods instead of having 14k coal on stock!

So many repairs but it seems that subways and trams are still stuck at the stops....

ahh , I only wanted to know if this bug is fixed. I'm going to try for myself. If it isn't fixed it means I have to wait even longer before I can enjoy the game. Pff, my patience is really being tested here.

I just started the game, and at first I was dissapointed, a few tram were stuck at first, but after I let the simulation run for a while, these cleared up. So far I haven't noticed any vehicle getting stuck during 20 minutes of playing (I have 10 tram lines, 3 train lines and 16 bus lines in my current city.). Before I had a stuck vehicle every 5 minutes. I will do more testing to make sure but I'm carefully optimistic .

 

[boshk]

does the parking fix, fix the cims that get infinitley stuck dismounting their motorcycles until you zoom in on them when parking?

 

[MayorWanze]

so which buildings exactly need to be replaced in current saves for the fixes to apply?

 

[anydaytv]

Really hoping the Pathing fix takes awhile to kick in, because loading up my big city has it basically permanently on "Blocking Simulation!", when I was getting decent performance.
I'll give it a day.

For those with Ultimate Edition, when are the updates to the beach property coming? End of March?

 

[CapnBludd]

Hi everyone! Patch 1.0.19f1 is ready for you. As always, please note that simulation fixes are expected to take a little while to properly take effect, so the game will need to run for a while. Similarly, fixes to buildings may need the buildings to be rebuilt.

If you experience any new issues or still have trouble with something that's been fixed, we'd appreciate a bug report on the forum with the save and Player.log (found here: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Colossal Order\Cities Skylines II) attached. It helps us pinpoint the cause and we greatly appreciate you taking the time to report issues you come across.

[DiNardo1910]

All changes are listed in the patch notes. No new features or content were added.


Thank you! We'll keep fixing bugs and will release the fixes with the first public beta of the modding support!

now that you are responding to customer comments again, can we get a response to all the requests for refunds? thank you.

edit: downvote me all you want, it's a repeated question that has been purposefully ignored.

 

[anton95]

Can we know when is the next patch? How many days/weeks ? Just out of curiousity. In the meanwhile, gg

They said the next update will be together with the first release of the modding tools.
So I'd expect a couple of weeks.

GeForce Now always takes a little. After updates have become available they have to patch all of their servers. The game will be in maintenance mode for a little bit.

 

[ThomasK_7]

Thanks for the patch.
We'll see if he brings players back into the game or keeps them.
The number of active players is the only objective measure of success!

 

[splashgod]

This is a very robust patch thank you! I love the fix on parking searching. students rebalancing, and the work on simulation speed. Although I hope there will be more continued work on simulation speed.

With every patch I see my profits skyrocket for no apparent reason, making it absurdly easy to make money. Is there any rebalancing on revenue-generating in the pipeline?

 

[Infixo]

@co_avanya Could you please clarify if cargo stations need to be destroyed and rebuilt for pathfinding fix to work? I am asking about this: "Cargo station pathfinding update to reduce traffic jams when accessing the buildings." Because my cargo stations behave exactly the same as before the patch and the fix as not related to a specific building but rather an algorithm that should work dofferently? Or are those wrongly calculated paths still there, "rememebered" by the building?

 

[Licenturion]

The snow on trees fixed looks much better in winter now.

But why is there no snow on roads and yards? Is this still bugged in my city?

I thought seasons were going to be this big Skylines 2 thing. Why isn't there snowploughs and salt spreaders? Cars do have snow on them. But roads don't.

Cargo finally works from the get go now. Yay!

 

[Laurentiis]

Incredible update, I can't wait to test it in my city of 570 thousand inhabitants. Looking forward to continue the incredible work you are doing....congratulations colossal order

 

[Derangedteddy]

Is the industrial tax bug (introduced in the December update) fixed with this update? I don't see it called out in the notes. This is preventing me from playing as I do not want to torpedo my city's budget.

They're invisible paths that you can't see, generated when you build the building. I haven't rebuilt mine yet either, waiting on the post patch chaos to die down a bit.
