Hi. This build has a few updates to make the later game play a little more accessible as well as opening up more unique items. There has also been a fair amount of work on the high score server which continues to go offline. When the server is offline, you can still play your game and your completed towns will upload once the server goes back online. There are extra issues of playing offline for those playing a few of the L2 modules including Indonesia and Texas. I am working on an offline function to keep those running.

LOGistICAL Sale

LOGistICAL is having a sale across all modules. Sale ends 9th August 2021. 50% off all LOGistICAL 1 modules and DLCs 50% off all LOGistICAL 2 modules and DLCs 30% off LOGistICAL: Earth LOGistICAL 3 is too new for a discount.

LOGistICAL 3: Kansas USA

LOGistICAL 3: Kansas is released and a bunch of players have already completed it. I decided to make L3 independent of LOGistICAL: Earth. Both will use the same game engine, but you won't need to purchase LOGistICAL: Earth to play the LOGistICAL: 3 modules (and vice versa). LOGistICAL: 3 is giving you smaller modules. Ones that will only take you a few weeks to complete. There is currently one module LOGistICAL: Kansas that is ready to play and I will continue to release more modules for L3. Some free. Others as DLCs.

LOGistICAL Development

I have been working on a few things over the past weeks. Getting new content and creating new games. There is a lot to do but it is working out quite well and I have been utilising the L3 engine to kick start all of these projects. Here is a summarised list of what I have been creating. More details are in a previous newsletter. https://steamcommunity.com/games/672150/announcements/detail/3031465101249277095 1. LOGistICAL: Universe - 10% developed 2. A World of Model Railways - 70% developed 3. LOGistICAL 3 (: Modules) - 100% developed with more on the way 4. LOGistICAL: Utopia - 20% developed

Hi. There have been lots happening over the last few weeks. I have been adding some improvements to LOGistICAL: Earth. It is such a large game, so I have been adding things to make it run even better. These improvements also roll over to LOGistICAL 3 (due out this week).

LOGistICAL: Utopia I plan to bring them all to you over time, so stay tuned to these newsletters.

LOGistICAL 3 Updates

A few Quality of Life (QoL) features for this build.

Improved Search

Town and Businesses Search now includes all the industries with industry titles, input titles and output titles. Single Stores are abbreviated as "SS". See sample images below. - Other key text for the search (you only need to enter a single or couple of letters) is "industries:", "i:" for inputs and "o:" for outputs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/02203b5f502959e17c5c64c12fdcacba45dc32b9.png An example for searching for a Single Store that has apples

Cargo Search

There is now a new search input for cargos when building in ports/docks/airports/airfields.- {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/47d0adada71b670809ecbae8f686b339694158fb.png An example of filtering by a cargo title.

Town Click History

A history of 17 spots now shows at the bottom of the town/business popup. - Text is coloured according to Town, Business, has an Industry, is a depot or is a road. - Border is Yellow if town/business is complete. - Click a town on the map, truck list or any other method and the town/business will be added to the list. - If a town/business is already on the list, it will be moved to the first position. - Click on the Town Click History items to go to that town/business and center the map on that town/business. - History is stored in the save game file. - Mouseover items to get the full name and region of the item. - H = History. Non-filtered list of towns that have been clicked on. - R = Region. Filtered by the current region of the town that is currently clicked. - P = Pins. If town contained a pin when clicked, it will also appear in this row. Removing the pin doesn't remove the town. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/d63863195a72d99122d87cff8718131be2bf173c.png The History panel at the bottom of the town/business popup. Hover over to see full description of each. Click to go to on the map.

Trade Store Updates

Updates to the new "Trade Stores" release in last build. - Trade stores are now available in locked regions, regardless of other locked industries. - Trade Stores bought as Single Stores within Docks/Ports now work properly. - Trade Stores being bought as "Single Stores" display with a different background.

Statistic Details

Added Statistics detail pages (F2) for each region. Click on a region to get the region's details (as per L1,L2). More work to be done on that one. Suggestions welcome. - Removed the "Module" and "State" fields - Split the "Industry" and "Built" fields to have separate 'Level 3" fields - Fixed the "Score" and "Efficiency" fields - Set the "large" amount of rows size to be 2,000. Regions with over this amount of towns + businesses are reduced to towns + businesses with industries + ports/docks + airports/airfields. - Set all business with Docks/Ports/Airfields/Airports/Roads and Industries to show when "large"

Other Updates

- A duplicate industry error has a fix. - Found and fixed an issue that was causing game to lockup for some players. - Next/Previous business fix if only one of that type of business within the region is left - High score "T" changed to "B" for Billions, not Trillions. - High scores over 100 billion use shortened method with 3 decimal places. - Fixed a bunch of rail, road and sea travel issues (hammer fixes) - Stopped the ships from changing image when trying to change their colour. - Error from last build that would sometimes hang the game when first clicking on a town. - Fixed an error with Vaccine not loading properly. - Updated the "LOGistICAL 3: Earth Demo" version - Fixed an issue with some player's new industries disappearing upon save and reload.

A small patch to fix some issues that were found in the major build last week. Build #863o on LE (openbeta) - Trade stores are now available in locked regions, regardless of other locked industries. - Trade Stores bought as Single Stores within Docks/Ports now work properly. - Trade Stores being bought as "Single Stores" display with a different background. - A duplicate industry error has a fix.

Bugs are sometimes very tough to find. This one only occurred for some players and only a couple of times a days. It took a while to find this one as it was difficult to pinpoint the exact circumstances when it was happening. After lots of testing and compiling all the info the testers could give to me, finally during a debug session a crash occurred and it was caught. The critter has been removed and things seem to be much better now.

This build brings lots of updates and changes to LOGistICAL: Earth as well as news about other projects coming soon. I will give a brief update on the projects in development and coming soon and then onto the L:Earth updates.

Coming Soon

Players have been requesting that I do a few different modules as well as some smaller ones for those getting burnt out on L:Earth. I have a few projects in the pipeline. Note: These are the projects as they are planned at the moment and may change prior to release.

LOGistICAL 3

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1637970/LOGistICAL_3/ ... but isn't L3 already out? It is and the current modules for it are L:Earth and L:Vaccine. For those who would like something smaller to play with, I bring you LOGistICAL 3 (which is LOGistICAL 3: Modules). The first module included is LOGistICAL: Kansas. This game is already complete and available in the Steam Store in June 2021. L:Kansas has been competed within 2 weeks by some testers and has since been nerfed considerably, so could be completed quicker. I will be adding more modules over time as DLCs or free additions.

A World of Model Railways (working title)

WMR brings you all the railways of the world as your own monster model railway set. This includes every currently known working track within our planet. All railways are immediately visible (ie no discovery). You can play within a single city setting up all the trains required to meet all the timetables, or work with the cargoes spread throughout the landscape. Do both at the same time. The timetables are the actual ones the city has including all the stops and frequencies. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/a18568ef1fab47961efb05d706c099c1986d07af.png Spawn an engine in the shunting yards and put together engine and carriage combinations required for the city network. Get your train and carriages to a main line to have them automatically take on the timetable for that train. That train will continue to run its timetable until you bring it back into the shunting yards. Get hundreds (or even thousands) of trains running simultaneously over your world map. Play scenarios that require some thinking to get the carriages all joined to the train within the shunting yards. Use the shunting engine(s) to move the carriages and eventually join to the main engine(s) waiting on the main line. Play scenarios that will require you to build train systems delivering cargoes to industries and also other stations (kind of like LOGistICAL). Play scenarios that require you to build the actual engines and carriages, requiring many different inputs (including food for the diners). Future builds may include the ability to create, play and share your own closed (or integrated) model railway systems. WMR would be built on the L3 framework but would be a very different game.

LOGistICAL: Universe

LOGistICAL to the next level. Though this may sound daunting, the detail of the Earth is much more complex than our knowledge of the rest of the universe. You would start on Earth and then venture out to moons, planets, asteroids, other solar systems and eventually other galaxies. Create Space Stations as well as orbital Space Stations which can be capable of orbiting around multiple entities (ie small ones orbiting between Earth and Mars. Large ones between our solar system and distant ones). This may require multiple hops to get the cargo from one planet to another within another solar system. Mine the asteroids and other planets to get the resources you need. Discover a huge amount of space with existing known planets and larger stars.

LOGistICAL: Utopia

This has been sitting in my back pocket for quite a while. Basically it is L:Earth with more freedom to build what you want, where you want. Start anywhere on Earth and build industries suitable for those towns and businesses near by. Deliver and complete towns and spread out as per the general game play. Build within another part of the planet and join the two together. Continue and complete the entire planet.

Current Updates: Build #863k

As many players are getting many towns and businesses done in Earth, the game takes on a different play style. Once you have discovered all the industries you then have the task of systematically completing each region (country). This brings new logistical challenges in the most efficient way you can do this. I have introduced a few tools over time to help you do this and bring a couple more. Not to forget the new players, I have also been adding new contracts to help assist those players up the learning curve.

Vehicle Save Slots

The "Vehicle Save Slots" (originally termed "Multi-Vehicle Slots"), which are on the title bar of the Vehicle List has been updated. They have been increased from 4 slots to 12 slots, and you can now put single vehicles into each slot. Here is a full list up updates for the "Vehicle Save Slots": - Ability to add a single vehicle to a Vehicle Save Slot - Increase to 12 Vehicles save slots per module. - Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl 1-6 to save. 1-6 to retrieve. Add the Shift key for slots 7-12 - Vehicle Save Slot colours indicate the type of the first vehicle in the group: -- orange: truck <= 20t -- pink: truck > 20t -- maroon: train -- blue: ship -- yellow: plane -- red: all vehicles have been sold -- white: default if unidentified - The numbers on the Vehicle Save Slots are a count of all the vehicles within the save slot (including sold vehicles) - The currently selected Vehicle Save Slot highlights until truck list or truck on map is clicked.

Trade Stores

Trade stores are a new type of store that allow you to input one type of resource but output any of the other types that are available for that trade store type. For example, input apples to a Fruit Store and output oranges. It is a ton-to-ton trade. Trade stores are very useful for doing small regions, like islands. Check the different products on the region and build just a few Trade Stores instead of many Single Stores. Details: - Trade Stores are like Single Stores, except they take multiple inputs but then you can output any type of Traded cargo. - For example you can input "Apples" to a "Fruit Store" and then deliver "Oranges", or "Bananas" or any other fruit. - There are numerous Trade Stores that open up game play for advanced players. - Contracts show when each Trade Store will be available. - Get the "Fruit Store" at 5,000 businesses complete. - Each is 5,000 business after (for a while) that gives a new Trade Store. - Once the contract is complete Trade Stores will be instantly available to build. - Once you build one, Trade Stores can take multiple types of inputs (see each contract). - Output is a generic type of cargo that you can deliver to any place that requires any of the inputs. - Inputs and Outputs require that you have fully upgraded at least 5 industries of that type. eg. Upgrade 5 "Apple Orchards" to enable apple delivery. - Input one type of cargo and output another. Just like apples and oranges. - Multi-Routes lock in to a single resource once the first destination has been selected.

Previous/Next Business

On the town popup title bar when you select a business, you get a previous/next business so you can quickly find the next business of that type. This can now be locked to the current region, so it only cycles through those that are local. A black outline on the business icon represents that the previous/next is locked to the current region. Details: - You can now lock the next/previous business, on the town popup, to the current region by clicking on the business icon.

High Score Format

A player has manged to get a total combined score of over 1 quadrillion and has thrown the format of the high score table out. This has been corrected. Scores over 1 quadrillion are now displayed in the trillions with a "T" at the end.

Fun Facts

There are lots of player submitted "Fun Facts" within the game now. For these to display, they need votes. To vote on a Fun Fact, click the Fun Fact window in the town popup and give it a vote. Create your own when you have completed enough towns/businesses. I have added ranks to your Fun Fact status for both voting and getting your submitted ones voted on. Details: - Fun Fact statuses for Votes and Submitted - Player Fun Fact Status displayed on bootup - Fun Facts filtered to module

High Score Server

There has been some unexpected down time with the high score server over the last few months. There are millions of records to query and the server has been taking a large load. I have created some periodic queries to summarise the L:Earth data as well as other query crunching processes. This takes a load off the constant server access but does create a new issue with that periodic processing. I will be putting some more time into this to optimise it even further.

Map, Road, Rail and Shipping Updates

- Fixed ports around the US Virgin Islands and British Virgin Islands, as well as added a ferry to the South Island - Fixed Dock of Guadeloupe - Fixed Dock of Heard Island and McDonald Islands - Fixed rails in Russia, Italy, Belarus and South Africa - Fixed rail connection in Alexandria, Egypt - Fixed business in Sint Maartin that was in wrong region - Fixed link to Marshall Islands - Fixed road that couldn't be selected as it was perfectly vertical - Fixed mislabled road in Columbia that was for Australia - Fixed trigger for Switzerland/Germany rail link contract - Cuba Rail link to a road - Fixed road to Eastern Russia which crosses the International Date Line - Fixed rail system in Southern Brazil - Fix for Rio Grande, Brazil railway. Pelotas now has a rail station. - Bunch of road and rail fixes. (Hammer fixes)

LOGistICAL 3: Earth Updates

There are lots of small fixes this week as well as a few bigger ones. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/4c279b2b9f2f9a21c12b6a5496113621aeb341fa.png

Ocean Floaties update

The complicated process of getting those empty trucks with ocean floaties to other countries is now over. You can now drag an empty truck with Ocean Floaties anywhere on the map without having to go to the completed ports first. The route finder will find the closest completed ports on each side and sail your truck over the oceans. You can even see your truck on a back of a ship now. Due to the logic of the navigator, completed ports that were on the other side of a string of incomplete ports on the single shipping lane were inaccessible. I have now made each of these accessible by not having the ship completely dock on the way past. I think I have found them all, but if you can't get your ship/floaties to port, zoom in and take a look and let me know so I can take a look.

More Ships For Sale

You asked, you got it. More ships for sale at Amsterdam shipping

Highscore Table

Completion of towns in Zen mode now contribute to the Highscore table. They don't give you a score, but they do give you count. There were a few issues with the high score table this week(s). It hasn't scaled as well as it could with all the new players getting lots of businesses. Looks like I have ironed those issues out now, so hopefully in for smooth sailing for a while (ever). Another issue with the high score table was that it wasn't always getting your latest steam name if it changed. That has now been updated, but you may find it takes about 1/2 an hour to update.

LOGistICAL 3: Vaccine update

There was an issue accessing a last town in Vaccine. It must have been a new bug as some players had already completed it. West Kalimantan road fix. So if you are one town away from completing Vaccine, jump back in and get that final town. Steam Achievements will be coming soon for Vaccine.

Summary List of Many of the Fixes

Build #861b on LE (openbeta) - Spain/Morocco rail link - Towns and businesses mapped to Western Sahara - Fixed all occurrences of duplicate businesses. Still exist, but both can be completed. - You can now drag an empty truck with Ocean Floaties anywhere on the map without having to go to the completed ports first. - Image of trucks on ships for Ocean Floaties. - More ships for sale at Amsterdam shipping - Mouse-over "Done"/"Cancel" for multi-nav now highlights the buttons. - Fix for multi-route selection process that sometimes clears the map. - LE/Vaccine: Removal of road between Manatuto (Timor-Leste) with Gauteng (South Africa) - Zen mode to highscore server. Both businesses and towns are tagged as 'zen' - Zen towns have zero score and zero efficiency so they don't complete with players on standard mode. - Fix high scores for new regions without any scores. - Created port bypasses for completed ones that are past a non-complete one. - Fixed a crash when delivering with planes from the current airport. - Fixed issue with high score server. Hopefully it will stay up all the time now. - Fixed issue with some completed towns not going to highscore server (mostly zen ones) - Portuguese is now "human" translated. Resources and Industries for this build. Thanks @LopeszTiago - More translation updates for other languages. Thanks to all the translators. - A bunch of hammer ( :hammer: ) fixes. If you see this below a bug report on the Discord you have entered, then is should now be fixed. - Fix access to Norfolk island. A point in the ocean that was a broken sea route wasn't allowing trucks with ocean floaties to pass causing them to bypass right around Australia. - Single Stores created in Airports/Airfields of the same resource type as a requirement for the business, gets priority over the business. Priority now goes back to the business requirement once the single store is full. - Trying to fill a vehicle with a resource that is empty will tag the truck with that resource type. If you move to another resource, it will think that it still has the original resource. Now if truck is empty, it will clear the resource and allow the truck to fill. - Fixed a disconnected business in Hawaii - Fixed rail access from the depot in Cuba - Fixed two Dominica business that were incorrectly tagged Puzzled?

- Displaying a single row in the industry popup was causing an error and not displaying any.

LOGistICAL 3: Earth Map Updates

All the industries are already placed and accessible. There are a few players who are getting access to the last of them. The "Super Tech" ones are pretty hard to get. For development, its now just a matter of tidying up all those little rail bits that don't connect to the main lines, and any other place that isn't accessible... and of course making the game run and play better. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/4c279b2b9f2f9a21c12b6a5496113621aeb341fa.png Some players are starting to complete some major sections, like "All Towns in Germany". Well done and feel free to brag about these huge accomplishments on the Discord brag channel (see link at the bottom of the page). We enjoy seeing your brags, big or small. If you feel good about it, let us know.

Wisconsin Access Puzzle

The puzzle to unlock Wisconsin has had some issues. When you have access to Wisconsin by rail, you should be able to get access to road once you have completed 3 of the required resources (standard Airport/Airfield function). This connection should show something (don't want to give too much away) that will allow you to continue playing with a different transport in that area. You made it through. That is the next puzzle. For some players this "something" wasn't showing and therefore the puzzle stopped there. To make it work now, fill another resource and the puzzle should complete. Post in the LOGistICAL forum or Discord if you are still having issues at this point. It is a long difficult puzzle, and you are getting so close to the end.

Industry View Update

The "Industry" view and the "Industry Buying" view have been updated to include paging, rather than shrinking the icons. As many icons that can fit on the page, do. The rest will be on next/previous pages with "Paging" icons at the top of the popup. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/b86196ac48bfe7c62fd3f7b86f1125ba8f732ca1.png

Multi-Nav

The multi-nav tool has undergone a major patch to sort out various issues. These patches should make using them easier as a "background" tool, allowing you to work on your other vehicles as it completes its shedule. - Clicking a town when in Multi-Nav no longer cancels any current multi-navs. - Trucks stop once they become empty, instead of continuing to follow the full trucks. - When dragging a non multi-nav vehicle, the cargo went blank when the background multi-nav vehicles completed a town/business. Fixed. - Trucks arriving late to the source industry were not getting full load if the first town/business was completed. Fixed. This should lead to some other multi-nav updates to make the process even better. More about that as it happens.

Languages

Another big thanks to those that are helping with the languages. There are more "human" updates in this version covering many of the languages. I have used machine translation in order to get the bulk of the work done, so it now a much easier process to tidy up any misinterpretations. English, German, Russian, Italian, Dutch, French, Croatian, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified), Korean

General Updates - Build #859f

- Arrows to "unfound" broken roads are shown if 90% of roads are fixed in that region. - Save of the broken road arrows status (on/off) in the save file. - Access to Wisconsin rail/road puzzle has been updated as some players were have access issues. - Industry popup now has paging instead of shrunken icons - Town/Road/Industry compete popup now goes straight to icon view - Icon view now has click instead of mouse-over to enlarge it. - Move contracts popup now sits where you drop it rather than jumping to the left. - Fixed issue of stats not working for some players (due to pressing the towns link in it and it saving that setting into their save). - Fix to stop train stations joining to towns and businesses - Multi-nav update: Clicking a town when in Multi-Nav no longer cancels any current multi-navs. - Multi-nav update: Trucks stop once they become empty, instead of continuing to follow the full trucks. - Multi-nav update: When dragging a non multi-nav vehicle, the cargo went blank when the background multi-nav vehicles completed a town/business. Fixed. - Multi-nav update: Trucks arriving late to the source industry were not getting full load if the first town/business was completed. Fixed.

LOGistICAL 3: Earth Updates

LE adds new content including the Philippines and Papua New Guinea. There are also many road and rail modifications to make the game run better.

Steam Achievements

Each region (country) within L3 now has incremental achievements for both the towns and businesses. Each has one for 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000 and 15000. A nice incentive to get that bit further in each region and suddenly they will all be finished. Some players are going for the 5 in each region.

Broken Roads

A new "helper" to identify broken roads is available. It is on by default but can be turned off by clicking the "B" button on the money panel. When on (purple button), arrows will point to all the "found" broken roads that aren't yet fixed within the currently selected region. Once you have completed 90% of the broken roads within the region, it will also show "un-found" broken roads within that region.

Languages

A big thanks to those that are helping with the languages. I have used machine translation in order to get the bulk of the work done, so it now a much easier process to tidy up any misinterpretations. English German Russian Italian Dutch French Croatian Spanish Portuguese Japanese Chinese (Simplified) Korean

Faster Save

The save process has been updated so it is much quicker for large files.

General Updates

- Philippines - Lechón recipe change - Philippine road updates - Removal of rail in Philippines - Load issue on LE fixed - Load issue on LV fixed - Update save process to be much faster for large files. - Fixed all the roads that didn't trigger with their contracts. - Added a bunch more contracts - Broken road arrows Press "B" button on money panel and have arrows point to all the broken roads for the region of the current selected town. - To deactivate, click again. - Arrows to unfound broken roads are shown if less than 10% of region is not fixed.- Mapping roads to regions for Europe Asia and Africa. - Fixed game lock when dragging an industry on map - Fixed a load locking error - Access to north PNG

LOGistICAL 3: Earth brings lots more access with Indonesia, Hawaii, Antarctica, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and much more. Note: New content for LOGistICAL 3: Earth will always be FREE. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/4c279b2b9f2f9a21c12b6a5496113621aeb341fa.png

Languages

Thanks to the great efforts of a dedicated bunch of awesome players, there is now a lot more translation content. I have also Google translated large text area that are being checked and corrected. Current languages are:

• English
• German
• Russian
• Italian
• Dutch
• French
• Croatian
• Spanish
• Japanese
• Chinese (Simplified)
• Korean

Updated Launcher

The launcher has been modified so that it will stay in the same window if you are only playing a single game. An extra button has been added next to each module to allow a "New Window" if you are playing multiple modules at once.

Full Screen Mode

With the launcher update, full screen mode is now functional again. There is still an issue when playing multiple modules at once from the same launcher.

Super Tech Industries

All industries are now accessible within the game if you have progressed enough. There is now a collection of Super-Tech industries. I won't spoil what they are, but you should find them fairly interesting.

Steam Achievements

There are new Steam achievements that reward you for your progression through the game. There are achievements for completing all towns and businesses (one of each) for each region. For large regions there are progressive achievements for 5, 10 ,20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000 and 15000 towns or businesses. There are a lot of data to input, so this is still a work in progress.

Faster Load for Large Saves

The load saved game routine has been updated. There were issues when you have a huge amount of towns and businesses complete. I won't say how much faster as it embarrassing how slow it was. I just didn't know, as in development mode I don't process data to Steam Achievements or the High Score tables. It was always fast for me. ... but anyway, most players with tens of thousands of completed towns and businesses are loading their save games in less than a minute. I have more work that I have been doing in this area, including reducing the size of the save files and faster saving. If you are getting the annoying lag when the game saves, you can increase the amount of time between saves in the "Settings" section (top left button on screen).

High Score Tables

The high score tables have been getting huge with over 8 million entries. Certain summary queries have been taking a long time and putting a strain on the servers. I have done a huge clean-up (without losing any data) and have also created some routines for generating complex queries periodically. Now all the Module high scores and Grand Total high scores run from a periodically generated table. This is set to refresh every hour on the hour (which should be reduced to 15 minutes soon). The scheduliser is still in development, so I am manually updating them at the moment, so you may find periods of no updates until I get this complete. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/4c279b2b9f2f9a21c12b6a5496113621aeb341fa.png

Depot Flags

The depots now have different coloured flags on the map, so you can have a good idea on what they sell. Trucks = Green Trains = Purple Ships = Blue Planes = Yellow

Industry Discovery

Prior to this build, when industries were discovered, you were given a popup to let you know that there was a new cargo available. This popup is now an "Industry Discovery". This will inform you that you have found an industry, where it is at, and what inputs and outputs it has. This is for all discovered industries, including the same types you may have discovered somewhere else.

LOGistICAL: Earth and LOGistICAL: Vaccine Steam Achievements

LOGistICAL: Earth has passed the Steam detection metrics to determine that it is a "legitimate" game. Explanation: Some time ago there was an inundation of new releases on Steam that exploited what games really were and how Steam Achievements were rewarded. As there were also so many games being released it was near impossible for Steam to manually examine each of them. Steam created an automated method of determination so that every new game is limited for a period until some metrics are reached. I don't know what these metrics are, so don't ask. LOGistICAL: Earth has now passed these metrics and will now show up as your "favourite" game (if so tagged), and all the rewards you get in LOGistICAL: Earth will show up in your statistics. LOGistICAL 2 long ago passed these metrics. LOGistICAL was created before these metrics were introduced. What to expect: Part the restrictions that were placed was that only 100 Achievements could be created. This limit is now much higher at 5,000. LOGistICAL: Earth is huge, so there will be a few more achievements added. Already I have added achievements for completing all the "puzzles" within the game. Next there will be achievements for completing each of the regions (250). There will be achievements for playing and completing LOGistICAL: Vaccine. This makes around 750 achievements so far. Others achievements will be added over time to take into account the continuing list of "group" contracts and also some to break the huge countries into smaller goals. I am open to other ideas and suggestions and hope that soon, one day some players will get 100%.

LOGistICAL: Vaccine

Just a reminder that LOGistICAL: Vaccine is free to all LOGistICAL owners and is available from either LOGistICAL 3: Earth or the LOGistICAL 3: Earth (demo). The latest patch ensures that LOGistICAL 3: Vaccine is now fully completeable. Congratulations to @Rayanth who has made it to 100%.

Languages

Under the skin of LOGistICAL 3: Earth lies 8 languages (English, Dutch, Russian, German, French, Italian, Finnish and Spanish). These are the language translations bought forward from LOGistICAL and LOGistICAL 2 that have been contributed by a group of wonderful LOGistICAL players that have given their time to make the game even better. Thank you again guys so much for your contributions. It has been wonderful. The current default language is English. You can currently change the language by pressing "cntrl-L". This interface will be updated soon to have the language popup the very first time you play the game with a button to change it later. I am now looking for players that wish to contribute some time to translate new content into their own languages. The process will be done via Google Sheets which I am currently setting up now. As a lot has already been done, this will be an addition to what is already there. If you wish to contribute, pop over to the the LOGistICAL: Discord (link below) and express your interest in the #localization-bugs channel. This is a "love" job though contributions often see gifted games. A good opportunity for those that haven't saved enough pennies for L:E.

Build #856ya

Build #856ya on LE (live) - Graphics updates of remaining industries and cargos - New flags for depots to dignify transport type (green=trucks, purple=train, blue=ship, yellow=plane) - New icon for "Zen" mode, so it doesn't get mistaken for "globe" mode of other modules. - Modified the "missed highscore" function for towns that may have missed being pushed to the highscores. - Found and fixed some duplicate towns/business ids between Vaccine and Earth. - Fixed issue with contracts displaying "new" truck when they should be "used" - Changed the "Found Cargo" popup to "Found Industry" which gives all the input, output and location of the industry. - Fixed issue of some "used" trucks being giving in contacts showing as "new" - Vaccines is fully completable - Fixes in India and southern Africa

Multi-Nav News

Multi-nav is a gizmo that you can buy for all your vehicles. With a multi-nav gizmo installed you can queue your vehicles destinations up and complete many quickly. There is also way to make multi-nav go even further. This is best done with lots of trucks at once, but can also be done with a single truck. Once a multi-nav process has completed and all the trucks are empty, and you still have a bunch of towns/businesses still in the multi-nav queue, you can continue the process by: - Select a truck or group of trucks that each have a multi-nav gizmo - Drag from an industry output on a town popup to start multi-nav town/bus selection - Click on many towns/bus until you have over 100% on the drag amount (but don't click on any towns/bus that are too high eg. 200t). - I usually get mine up to about 200%-400%. - Click the "Done" to set the trucks off. - They finish and the extra towns/bus of the multi-nav are still highlighted. - Next, click on the "destination" (the lower one) of one of those trucks in the truck list. - Drag from the town popups same resource that was used, to the source industry on the map. - The trucks go to that source town, back to the destination and then continue to follow the multi-nav path. Note: You don't have to use the same source location as the original multi-nav setup. Note: This works on large businesses as well, but it is best on many small businesses. Note: To purchase a multi-nav gizmo from any depot, you firstly have to complete regions.

LOGistICAL 3: Vaccine

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29807716/9d53bf5dc206fc41b3b87aba3a930121444d159e.png LOGistICAL 3: Vaccine (Xmas 2020) is Sacada's 2020 gift to all LOGistICAL owners. Its 2020 and the Earth is sick... very sick... and vaccines are almost ready. Vaccines will require transport throughout the entire world, and LOGistICAL is a great place to practice on. Beginning with the 9 WHO vaccine companies (plus Russia) you are to distribute the vaccine to all the regional and local distribution centres in every country around the world. Of course it isn't that easy. You will also have to transport ingredients into the vaccine centres to make the vaccine, and also upgrade the vaccine industries, and then transport inputs to those industries and upgrades for them as well, and then for those inputs as well... etc, etc. You know how it is. Oh, and lots of the vaccines require a lot of refrigeration, so you will have to transport to construct that as well as deliver them to many distribution centres. LOGistICAL: Vaccine is a small (large) LOGistICAL game with over 5,000 businesses that each are all quite small (generally less than 50t requirement), and they are all businesses. Here is a summary: - 5,000+ smallish businesses to complete - All roads are visible - No roads require repair nor upgrade - No consumption - No industry building - Some quarantines, but not a large quantity of them - Large trucks can drive anywhere (except ferry routes) - Unlimited quantity of each vehicles types - 100+ vehicles allowed - Multi-Route and Multi-Truck navigation is support - All the LOGistICAL: Earth functionality - Fully rendered maps. Start the game by delivering vaccines to the nearest places to establish your finances. Work your way across the planet. Don't try to upgrade things straight away. You may find that fairly difficult and therefore frustrating. As LOGistICAL: Vaccine is based on the LOGistICAL 3 framework, it will firstly be available to all LOGistICAL: Earth owners and follow later to the other LOGistICAL owners.

LOGistICAL 3: Launcher

Due to L3 now having two modules to play, there is an L3 launcher. Start the game and select to play either L:Earth, L:Vaccine or both at once. There is still an issue with maximising the games. A workaround is to drag the game's top Windows task bar to the top of the screen. PS. If you want any more LOGistICAL modules, you may catch the last day of the Steam Autumn sale (ends 2 Dec 2020).

All LOGistICAL modules are now on sale (until Dec 02) 50% off LOGistICAL 1 modules 40% off LOGistICAL 2 modules 20% off LOGistICAL 3: Earth module.
