Repeated intro
Greetings Fellow Trainscapers! We are happy to release our first update. The most requested feature since launch was the ability to ride the train. Now you can do that! Also, new content are made available through free Gift Boxes. At least one will be given out each week. You must login to claim your box. So grab the update and hop on. Please let us know what you think of the game so far. And we are off to Update 2! Team Bit Toys =====
What changed
- Gameplay
- Fixes
- UI and audio
Trainscape changes
- Trainmap
Tool: God-mote
Ride the locomotive! Highlight a train with the God-mote and use D-Pad UP to jump inside the cabin. While riding the train, you can continue to swipe D-Pad LEFT/RIGHT to change its speed. Use D-Pad DOWN to exit. You can even blow the whistle with D-Pad LEFT!
Switch TV channels when there is more than 1 locomotive on the table
TV will automatically turn off when there are no valid locomotives in play
Tool: Mr. Claw
Highlighting a pose-able character will now give it a proper outline
Improved train placements, especially on elevated tracks
ALT (hold trigger on non-tool hand) allows trains to be placed on the table instead of being forced to stick to tracks
Fixed a bug which would occasionally prevent trains from being placed on highlighted track
Tool: Track Gun
ALT (hold trigger on non-tool hand) will hide spike balls from view, which makes selecting small track segments possible
Delete track segment button has been mapped to D-Pad DOWN to avoid accidental deletions
Improved track loop-closing assistant. Reminder that loop-closing algorithm only kicks in when 2 open ended tracks segments are within 90-degrees angle of each other
Improved snapping to existing guides
Preview track segment is now tinted blue
New Starter Marker will no longer inherit grade setting from the last track segment placed
General UI improvement while building tracks
System
Improved physics between world objects, especially between small objects such as placing a person on a bench. (Train physics will be improved in future updates)
Added controller haptic feedback throughout the experience
Tweaks to sound effects and behaviors
Fixed a bug where character poses are not properly restored on load
Content
New contents are available through Gift Boxes, which will be dropped on a weekly basis
Each Gift Box will yield a new item
New items include tank car, boxcar, grain silo, chef, baggage cart, tents, special edition cows, and more!
Known Issues
Certain poses will cause the pose-able character to slide across the table; try placing them with ALT (hold trigger on non-tool hand)
Switching tools while holding an object would make that object harder to pickup
When coupling train cars together, sometimes the train car that is being connected to may do a 180 flip
Visual effects from unboxing Starter Kit and Gift Box may appear black
