Simutrans released three minor versions this summer that have finally made its way to Steam. Here is the combined changelog of Simutrans 124.2, 124.2.1 and 124.2.2

Highlights of this version

• New way builder: If a new way starts one tile from an existing way and ends one tile from an existing way, it will now try very hard to make a parallel track. It works as good as it can do without terraforming. It may still join at a place where it cannot pass next to it but then go parallel again, greatly saving efforts (especially with diagonals).
  
• When you click on a chat message ticker, it opens the chat window in the corresponding message tab.
  

Paksets updated on Steam

• Pak128.german 2.3 beta
  
• Pak64 124.2.2
  
• Scenario tutorials for pak128 and pak64
  

Paksets updated outside Steam

• Pak48.bitlit 0.1d
