As voted in our community, the newest map in the company is Sobol's first released map: Gorzów Wielkopolski - currently it's a small Polish map, with 2 lines (one of them only runs on the weekend), but it does look quite nice and you don't need any extra dependencies to run it.

Welcome to Gorzów! The provincial city of Lubuskie, the seat of the Lubuskie Voivode and one of the largest cities located on Ostbahno. There are 2 lines 119 and T4 in version 1.00. In total, there are about 12.5 km of roads. The map has a large number of dedicated facilities, it also has dedicated AI trains and trams...

I've added the new hidden bus from the MAN NLC DLC into the company, short 10C 2-door version. It's the first bus from that DLC in our company that uses ZF gearbox. Like always repaint you can find from the fleet page.

Similarly to 21C it requires extra steps to be enabled, instructions on fleet page also, if you have issues, poke GameBurrow on Discord.

I've also added a poll on Discord if we should replace the other ones with ZF version also.

It's time for the November 2024 for report. It once again was a quieter month.

We did lose money compared to October, our rating has dropped. We did have to remove 3 unused maps also.

Due to no usage, the following maps have been removed from the company:

I've uploaded V3.1 of the MAN New Lion's City repaint. I found out that the 21C repaint was quite broken (DLC author had made breaking changes). Had to also configure the rear doors to be outside sliding doors (inside swing doors, default ones was broken for the last door).

I've updated the repaint for the MAN New Lion's City buses to include the new setvar options from the latest update. I kept the regular mirrors for now instead of digital mirrors since there seemed to be a bug that if I enabled digital mirrors, left regular mirror also stuck around.

I've noticed BlueSky becoming quite popular. Due to that next to GO Group X account, you can now find us on BlueSky also: https://bsky.app/profile/gogroupvirtual.bsky.social

Last month I posted a poll on our Discord if we should replace the current Solaris Urbino III buses with Sobol's version.

I'd say the results are now in and they look like this:

This means I'll start working on replacing the buses as soon as possible.

After trialing TruckersHub for our company for a month, I've made a decision to move back to Trucksbook for our company: https://trucksbook.eu/company/57084

Some of the reasons being, more things than I like are paywalled in Truckershub, the website is quite slow and I've found somne issues with how the truckershub runs (and possible it won't work with Linux also, Trucksbooks you can get working with linux with some effort, I've managed to do it).

Thankly only me and Thunderburrow have used TruckersHub so it won't affect anybody else.
