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 LOGistICAL: Earth Updates - 18 new contracts to unlock more Unique items. That covers all but the "Super Tech" industries and the "Phosphate" mining. - Reduction of Super Tech goals in contracts - Fix for advanced industries suddenly appearing where there should be Single Stores. * This usually happens for the Port of Tauranga in NZ, as it is generally the first place to build Single Stores. - Set a bunch of businesses to "Vatican" that were incorrectly labeled as "Italy" - Added a pop-up message to notify player if their game didn't save. - Turned "Heat Map" off to see if it may be the cause of the server disruptions. - Turned off the server conflict resolution process as it may be draining the server LOGistICAL help Tip: Some players look over to the Steam Achievements to see what other players have completed that they haven't. Especially those that have a higher percentage of completions. For those struggling to know what to do next, pop into the Discord server and ask other players. https://discord.gg/xdQ2Gws LOGistICAL: Earth has a wiki. ...Survey Results, A New Module, LOGistICAL Sale and L3 Updates (Build #864b)Jun 16, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsHi. 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 Sale LOGistICAL is having a sale across all modules. Sale ends 22nd June 2021. 50% off all LOGistICAL 1 modules and DLCs 50% off all LOGistICAL 2 modules and DLCs 30% off LOGistICAL: Earth. A New Module LOGistICAL: 3 is releasing this week. I decided to make this one 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 Survey I ran a survey on the LOGistICAL Discord (in the #announcements channel) so you could vote for each of the future modules that I am planning on building (or have already started). Full details are in last months newsletter: https://steamcommunity.com/games/672150/announcements/detail/3031465101249277095 The results were in the exact opposite order of what is the easiest to create.

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.

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.Build #863m. Fixed intermittent crash.May 31, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsBugs 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.LOGistICAL: Earth Build #863k on Live + NewsMay 27, 2021 - Community AnnouncementsThis 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 ...861r General fixesApr 15, 2021 - Community Announcements861r General fixes General fixes.

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.

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 taggedBuild #860t on LE (openbeta)Feb 24, 2021 - Community Announcements- Zen mode to highscore server.
