Another update coming.
Might be an idea to backup RW before installing update.
See the site.

Anyone any ideas on what these might be?

* Improved handling of reversing points past signals
* Improved Request to Pass Signal function

I didn't see anything reported on Railworks Wiki about these.

I am just happy that we are receiving constant updates. It seems the use of the Steam platform is probably correct in what has happened so far.

Yes I like the way updates are handled with Steam, but more detailed information from RSC about what the updates actually do before the updates are applied would not go amiss. Then at least we would know how things are supposed to be performing after the updates have been applied, instead of trial and error finding out what the changes actually are and whether they are working or not.

Just a thought. :-?

Can only think that it's the dreaded system crash at some "signals/engines" when you ask if you can pass a red?

Hi
I am always a bit nervous,when updates are announced,usually something gets fixed,but breaks somthing else,time for another backup i think.
i just wish they would put out a fix for the Hall sound.
I agree steam is working well as an update service.
Regards

I really hope it does mean that, that bug has been there since the early days of rail simulator and its very annoying.
