New map: Strathshire

OMSI 2

And yet another new map, this time for UK community. Strathshire has made it to the company.

Strathshire is the first mainland Scottish map for OMSI 2. Strathdon, the main city of region, rose to prominence in the 1860s with a tourism boom driven by the industrial revolution and railway. Strathshire’s population is approximately 120,000 residents but the region attracts many visitors every year, the majority of whom flock to Strathdon for the bustling markets and its renowned nightlife.

Like always, link can be found on our maps page

OMSI 2

New map: Bad Hügelsdorf 2020

OMSI 2

We have added the newly released Bad Hügelsdorf to the company. We won't be adding the MAN LC A20 as we have perfectly working more modern version and freeware already in the company.

MAN LC A25 I need to try before deciding. We already have the freeware A25 EEV Beta and as far as I remember it is working nicely (only bug I remember was that the kneeling can get stuck), I will check it also again and then decide. If possible I don't want to add the one from DLC to not duplicate the buses in the depot and thus I'd prefer to keep the free versions.

Forum - user cleanup and some changes

General

Due to the fact that there we a lot of spam user accounts on our forum, I've cleaned up and deleted a lot of accounts that had 0 posts on the forums. If your account was one of them, do not worry, feel free to make a new one.

Thanks to that I've added several security extensions and renabled some of the old ones that where broken at some time.

Discord login is also now enabled. (If there already exists and account that uses your Discord e-mail, it will be automatically linked).

Additionally, I've updated the categories/tags a bit, having a new result looking like this:

New bus: MAN Lion's City A21 Bus Train

OMSI 2

For the first time in our company, a mighty bus-train is making an appearance. Front side is MAN Lion's City A21 3-door Euro 6. Attached to it is the a short trailer, making the total lenght of the bus 23m. Capacity of this monster is 157 passengers.

Even though the bus is long, due to the fact that both trailer axles steer, it can do quite tight turns (I'd say even better than some articulated buses).

Bus is parked in Depot 4, position 4 and carries fleet number #2206. Bus comes with Münich DLC. In future, we plan to replace it...

New map: München

OMSI 2

I've added München DLC map for the company. If the map is used enough for the next 3 months, we will keep it (don't need much honestly, it's quite cheap considering it's quality).

The map has 3 driveable lines at the time of writing.
