Ambulance Simulator - dziadudziadu

Hi everybody!

Here’s a long-awaited update on Ambulance Simulator! We know, it took us some time. Let us brief you a bit since the silence was too long on our end.

Frankly saying, we've had a lot of organizational changes on the verge of 2021 and 2022. We decided to significantly strengthen and expand our team. With new talented people on board, things are looking better now!

💣💥💥 That said, we plan to release Ambulance Simulator this year. We also plan to launch a Steam playtest demo of the game to be released very soon, stay tuned!💣💥💥

And here’s a summary of the works from the last weeks/months:

- Living City – we’ve been building a busy city. The environment has been entirely reworked from the ground up. There’s way more variety, more props, complex road intersections, and sidewalks. The city itself has increased in size compared to previous designs, so expect a bigger, better, living city.

- The traffic system has been redone from scratch and is now more responsive, more clever, and more optimized, meaning the roads will be busy. Given the fact that driving through traffic as an ambulance driver is no easy task, you as a player will be challenged with real-world situations found on the roads of a busy city. We’ve improved the AI of NPC Cars to make room for an incoming ambulance (make sure to toggle your sirens on!), however, keep in mind the pedestrians and other cars on your way to the victim in need.

- The ambulance has never been more precise to drive. We’ve developed custom vehicle physics to accommodate for accurate physically driven vehicle handling. You’ll be able to feel the weight of an ambulance car, along with its acceleration and traction.

Pedestrians have been given a second life. We’ve reworked our pedestrian system in order to populate our city with lots of NPCs. Thanks to that the city has never been so much alive. The pedestrians in the current iteration come with their own physics behavior, different animations, and procedurally generated navigation.

- The player navigation system and minimap have been done from scratch. As a player, you won’t have any issues finding the victim. New procedural minimap path generation that’s in place will let you navigate easily throughout the city.

- General tweaks, the latest engine version, and a project reworked from the ground up allowed us to run the game smoothly with 60 frames per second even on lower-end machines. And all that with a bigger city, better traffic, and pedestrians in mind. Optional DLSS and FidelityFX systems are implemented and ready to be turned on if you desire. These technologies will let your game run even better with higher graphics settings.

Expect more news, playtest, and trailer in the upcoming weeks! We are now constantly present here on Steam forums, so should you have any questions, just let us know there or on our official Discord!

Best,

Trackwork Comp!

Rolling Line - Franks

Hey it's been a while since the last layout building event, and the track system just got a lot more interesting after the last couple of updates, so what better time to put some focus towards...
TRACKWORK!

This competition will be running from June 22nd until July 4th.

The goal is simple: make any map you like, with a focus on track design.
You could try using track in a creative way, or have a go at making something really ambitious and complex. Or maybe have a go at modding in your own track style!
These events are a great way to get inspiration for a new layout idea, so give it a try and see what you can build, and simply upload it to the Steam Workshop to take part.

When uploading a layout/mod to the Steam Workshop make sure to check the "Trackwork Comp 2022 Entry" option so it gets included!

You can also view entires by clicking on the "Competitions" tags on the Workshop page:

There aren't really any rules, you can make a layout with whatever theme you like!
But the focus should be on track in some way, like creative use of track or interesting and complex track design.

You can make as many submissions as you like, and don't worry about trying to make something perfect, just have fun with it!

Here's some inspiration:

And who says it needs to be a real-world railway?

Or even a conventional railway? ːsteamhappyː

You can make anything you like!
The more creative the better. In fact one of the categories is entirely based around creativity!

I've split the winning criteria into three categories so there will be more to consider than just making the most advanced and impressive map.
I'm especially hoping that some people (who are confident with modding) make use of the new modding tools to create some really unique track styles and designs.

A ton of new track customization has been added into the game after the last two updates, so I'm excited to see people make the most of it!

This is also the first layout event in a while that actually has prizes.
For each of the 3 categories there will be one winner who gets to choose a new "track style" painter to be added into the game officially.
This could be a kind of bridge, tunnel, overhead wire, extra-rail, side-of-track detail (like a platform), etc.
That means there are 3 winners total, one for "most complex layout", one for "best use of modding" and one for "most creative".

But remember, the goal is just to have fun and take the opportunity of making layouts alongside other people in the community all at once. It's a great time to get inspired and give some new ideas a go.

But in other news...

Progress on roads

Part of the reason I'm hosting this competition now is because I'm busy working on roads in the background! This is going to be a HUGE update so it's also going to take a lot of time.
But progress is going great!

And yes, you will be able to drive cars on your roads, just like trains on tracks! ːsteamhappyː

Roads are going to be amazing!
So you've certainly got something special to look forward to in the near(-ish) future.

But in the meantime, I hope everyone has some fun with the layout competition, I can't wait to see all the ideas that everyone comes up with!

As with every layout competition in the past, i will of course be playing EVERY SINGLE ENTRY at the end and going through and choosing my favourites.

Have fun!
