addedRented and purchased vehicles are now separated much more clearly within the system. Purchased vehicles are added to your fleet permanently, while rented vehicles are displayed with their own markers. This makes it much easier to keep track of the status of your fleet.
addedIn addition, a status system has been added for vehicles. If a vehicle is currently on a mission, it can no longer be selected again. In other words, it is no longer possible to send the same ship or caravan to multiple destinations at the same time. Vehicles now appear as “ Idle ” when ready to use, and “ In Transit ” while they are actively on a task. A small but useful tooltip system has also been added for rented vehicles. When you hover over the contract icon, the vehicle name, contract end date, and remaining days are displayed. These details will be especially useful for keeping track of multiple rented vehicles in your fleet.
addedThe contract extension system for rented vehicles has also been completed. Existing contracts can now be extended by 7, 14, 21, or 30 days. The extension screen also shows the current end date, the new end date, and the cost, making the decision process much clearer.
changedWith these updates, the vehicle system has reached a much more solid state both visually and in terms of gameplay.
