Hi,
the 0.82.3exp had a few annoying bugs that are fixed in 0.82.5exp:
http://www.simutrans.de/en/download.html
(Sorry for the late announcement I was away a few weeks and forgot to post an announcement here before my holidays).
This are the release notes for Simutrans version 0.82.5exp
==========================================================
Changes since the release of 0.82.3exp:
----------------------------------------
The 0.82.3exp has been quite buggy, so a new bugfix version is needed
urgently. Unfortunatley I already had started working on new features
when the first bug reports came in.
Thus this is not really a bugfix release. It includes fixes for the
most serious bugs that came up during testing the 0.82.3exp but also
a new feature of unknown impact to stability.
This new feature is the ability to raise and lower land, not as known
by creating hills and depression, but by creating artificial, wall
supported, slopes. This feature is still in development. It isn't
finished but since the bugs of the 0.82.3exp have been so pressing,
I release this version with the half-done artficial slopes. If you
don't use them, it should be fairly safe to play. But the feature
required changes of the world data structures and I'm a little bit
afraid something could have been broken during that changes.
Besides the artificial slopes the passenger statistics for stations
and the tooltips for the tool selection windows seem to be worth being
mentioned. The latter should help particularly the newby players.
The heightfield loading should be working properly again. Heightfields
are still searched in the "save" folder - put them there so that
Simutrans can find them.
Chronological list of changes since the release of 0.82.3exp
-------------------------------------------------------------
30-Jul-03 CHANGE: limited max passenger search depth (route planning)
to 300 stations (was 900 formerly)
FIX: heightfield loading now works well with artificial
slopes - no extra support walls are created anymore
29-Jul-03 CHANGE: lowered passenger rate for higher level buildings
28-Jul-03 FIX: Added missing initialization to slope array
FIX: Added missing initialization to buildings after
loading
FIX: Fixed a 'race condition' in world destruction.
In rare occasions, there was step() called on cities
that just underwent destruction.
CHANGE: lowered passenger rate for higher level buildings
27-Jul-03 NEW: UI button class got a tooltip feature. Added tooltips to
some buttons that didn't have a meaningful label
NEW: Passenger statistics for stations (happy, unhappy, no
route found). Newly created passengers become unhappy
if their chosen starting station has more than 64
passengers per segment already waiting there. Unhappy
passengers will not use your transport service.
"No route" in this case means that a passenger came to
the station, couldn't find a route to his desired
destination and went home.

26-Jul-03 FIX: Fixed a crash if the height of a schedule entry
(waypoint) was changed and the schedule window was
opened after the height change
FIX: Using the emergency button to remove vehicles now resets
the rail block counters if the vehicle was a train
NEW: tooltips for tool selection windows
22-Jul-03 FIX: Screenshot directory is now created with correct
access permissions under Linux

NEW: Textures for slope support walls
NEW: Added loading and saving of artificial slopes.
FIX: Fixed a bug in heightfield loading (wrong filename suffix)
(Heightfields are still searched in the "save" directory)
19-Jul-03 CHANGE: Continued work on artficial slopes - completed slope
table, created a menu and tools
17-Jul-03 CHANGE: Continued work on artficial slopes - painted slope
cut walls and implemented first version of slope
mapping table.
16-Jul-03 CHANGE: Changed grid heights to sint8. This saves 65k
for a standard 256x256 map
CHANGE: Continued work on artificial slopes - grounds now
have up to three images: artificial walls, the ground
itself and a way image (this takes additional 128k
of memory for a standard 256x256 map)
