A new version of Simutrans-Experimental is available to-day: Simutrans 110.6 Experimental 9.10. See

here (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=1894.0) for more information on how to download, install and set up the latest version. For those already familiar with the installation and setup, here are some quick links:

• Windows binaries (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/simutrans-experimental.zip)
• Linux binaries (x64) (to follow)
• Linux binaries (i386) (to follow)
• Linux binaries (i386 - no graphics server) (to follow)
• Configuration files (https://github.com/downloads/jamespetts/simutrans-experimental/simutrans-experimental-config.zip)

Neither Makeobj nor the configuration files have changed for this release, but had changed for the previous release, version 9.9. This is a bug-fix release, which fixes a number of issues identified in the previous version. For information on the changes in version 9.9 as over version 9.8, see this (http://forum.simutrans.com/index.php?topic=7486.0) post.

The changes between versions 9.9 and 9.10 are listed below; only Experimental changes are shown.

Changes

• FIX: Various problems with the line management window, including crashes on creating new lines and failures to save settings.
• FIX: Compile error with GCC.
• FIX: Correct Standard version numbering from 110.0.6 to the correct 110.6
• FIX: Crash when using the "Experimental" tab in the settings window.
• FIX: Better sizes for upper buttons in the map window
• FIX: Display the meters per tile scale correctly in the map window when "show scale" is set.
• CHANGE: Remove the setting to change the distance scale (meters per tile) in the "settings" dialogue, as this did not change the scale properly (it is not practicable to change this from within a running game).
• FIX: Crashes when closing convoy windows and possibly other UI operations (Inkelyad)

Feedback and testing

Thanks also to all those who have tested Simutrans-Experimental and provided useful feedback: it is very much appreciated. Any feedback from this version would, as ever, also be very much appreciated, including (1) online play (see here (http://simutrans-germany.com/serverlist_ex/) for a list of Simutrans-Experimental servers); (2) general bug reports; (3) information as to how well-balanced that the game is; (4) any difference in approach/strategy needed for Simutrans-Experimental as over Simutrans-Standard; and (5) any other useful feedback.

Thanks again to all those who have worked to test Simutrans-Experimental, and happy playing!
