Changes, as filed:

  • Co-op lobby: gather before the game, chat at the table (names, live ping, a Kick stamp for the host), rename yourself; the host picks the company record and difficulty while everyone watches
  • Bankruptcy no longer disconnects anyone: the whole table returns to the lobby, where the banker receives you all together
  • A hand-authored starting map is now the vanilla opening, made in the new Map editor (Mods -> Modding tools) - maps are mod data, coordinate by coordinate
  • Facilities on authored maps mark PREFERRED sites and open when demand arises; the founding mill still greets the settlers
  • Growing towns announce their next appetite in the Gazette; surveyors point at (or prospect, some days' ride out) the resources it will take
  • Towns and facilities keep a polite founding distance (5 hexes; 3 for resource-bound works) so nobody gets bricked in
  • Wagons couple at stations now - ordered mid-track, attached at the next stop, refunded on misadventure
  • The line overlay draws one ribbon per line instead of hundreds of pieces per train; the coordinate chip is visible again
  • Form 27-B offers five complexions of questionable realism
  • Alt+Enter toggles fullscreen; every typed name passes one strict clerk

The bank trusts these prove satisfactory.
