    I am on PC Steam
    The work that has been done on West Somerset, Paddington-Reading and the East Coastway is very much appreciated. Like the old preservation crew from the early 2020s.

    Why did the team release an updated SEHS without public knowledge? Why did that ship out?

    It broke the core game and it leaves many consumers wondering if they will upgrade to TSW 7.

    Just to add, all mods are disabled.

    You shouldn't be accidently releasing a version of the application.
    It should always have been tested before.
    You just can't accidently release a build for their customers.

    "It wasn't supposed to be released; it was still in QA. You weren't supposed to have that update. DTG corrected the issue by putting out a fix to revert it."

    Why was it released together with the ECW update, SEHS is fine as it is?
    Why isn't the SEHS improvements included in any roadmap?
    What kind of admin is this?

    As my old boss used to say "if you don't make mistakes you don't make anything".

    Wait till something serious happens.
