It’s a new year, and a new year always brings fresh opportunities to seize. Today, Construction Simulator is putting together a new set of patch notes for builders to check on. Before the blueprints are on display for the workers to see, owners of Construction Simulator should refer to Update 4. In the following report, such notes will be given like bug fixes, gameplay enhancements, and additional dozer flexibility. Update 4 is now live for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and PC platforms. Here is the official link for Update 4, along with the previous announcements.
Construction Simulator Update #4 – February 1, 2023
Bug Fixes and Game Improvements
- Added new dedicated task assignment screen in job planning section
- New input actions (shortcuts) were added for some functions which were only accessible through the radial menu
- Machines without indicators do not show UI indicators anymore
- Reduced memory load in different parts of the game to prevent crashes
- Improved loading of scenario
- Multiple multiplayer fixes regarding forklifts and cargo objects
- Fixed a number of multiplayer desync issues
- Fixed CAT 745C spilling lots of material when auto-filling
- Fix for problems when creating a multiplayer game on PS4
- Numerous issues were fixed that could cause soil to appear or disappear when digging or dozing
Dozing Updates
- You can now use dozers to push gravel and sand without losing material.
- The resistance of the soil is now simulated. The dozer will slow down depending on the amount being pushed. The CAT D8T can push the most soil at once but lacks the ability to yaw the blade.
- Depending on the selected job scope it is more challenging to flatten areas with the dozer.
- You can disable this behavior completely by using the gameplay setting “simplified leveling”. If disabled, you will have to manually push all the soil out of the area which needs to be flattened. Alternatively, you can pick it up with loaders and dumpers.
These are the complete set of Update 4 notes for Construction Simulator. These and other updates can be viewed in full either through the aforementioned official website or the game’s Steam page.
