June 2025 | Glorious deeds, humble hearts, and great voltage

"When official broadcasts fall silent, the People speak louder."

👋 Greetings, Builders of the Republic

As Reports for the Community become less frequent, there is still no shortage of creativity, insight, and excellence across the Republic. That is why we now launch this new format — a monthly newspaper of sorts — created to honor every party member: The players, the modders, the thinkers, the creators.

🗞️ It is a newspaper — from the community, for the community.

You build not only cities and industries, but also knowledge, beauty, and community. This new series is for you.


📰 What is the Community Highlights & Research?

We now host a special Forum on Discord where you can submit or vote for:

  • 📷 Screenshots

  • 🛠️ Mods & Maps

  • 📚 Guides & Tutorials

  • 🎥 Videos & Time-lapses

  • 🎯 Challenge ideas

  • 💡 Mechanic deep dives


Top picks — selected by the People — will be immortalized in these monthly bulletins. This is your voice. This is your spotlight. This is your moment of honor.


But that's not all...


Alongside the highlights, we’ll be preparing Community Research posts — deep dives into mechanics, strategies, and insights from both players and developers. Based on our November 2024 player poll, we know you want better understanding of how the game really works under the hood.


Stay tuned. That work is already underway.


🏆 COMMUNITY HIGHLIGHT AWARDS – APRIL 2025


✈️ MOD OF THE MONTH

"Airport Terminal with Underground Station" – by Aister . A visionary fusion of aviation and rail transport, this hybrid mod blends airport function with underground rail connectivity. Though fueling limitations exist, the design pushes the boundaries of what modding can offer. A salute to ingenuity, even in constrained conditions.🔗 [Steam Link]

GUIDE OF THE MONTH

"Ultimate Electric Guide" – by Silent_Shadow . Power struggles? Not anymore. This essential guide sheds light on the dark corners of power distribution — from pylons to transformers, this is your electrified manual for a smoother Republic. We’re considering a future Community Research deep dive into electricity. Until then: read, absorb, and connect.🔗 [Guide Link]


🚧 We're Just Getting Started

This is only the beginning. When we first launched Reports for the Community, no one imagined it would reach over 100 issues. Now we start this new series, and it’s not limited by development updates. If something new arises, we’ll include it here. But first, we must build the rhythm.


🗓️ The plan: One post each month

🗳️ The need: Your help — your votes, your recommendations

🚫 The rule: Use the Forum properly — no memes, no chatter, just worthy suggestions

🧭 Looking Ahead

If all goes well, this initiative may evolve:

  • Regular creator spotlights

  • Community events

  • Challenge posts

  • Steam or video showcases


For now as this post is published later than planned, we extend the May 2025 voting window into June. Expect the next Highlights issue by early July. Until then: Build boldly, think creatively, and don’t forget to enjoy the Republic.


With gratitude and dedication,

Quisera pedir que agregaran las Motocicletas en automático como los electrónicos o similares y seria bueno que pusieran el intercambio de prendas entre tiempos para la Ciudadania porque es muy aburrido ver a mis Ciudadanos siempre iguales jajaja....

Please implement quality of goods - we already have quality of water - this could go to the same thing as Food/Cloths etc. This would give more fun with buying vs crafting in the cities vs upgrading factories to higher western standards The quality would satisfy the % of the quality of the needs so it would be a fun system adding more realism. This could then also impact buildings - wear and tear

I propose to introduce repairs not only of buildings, but also of roads. And also, in this regard, to introduce different types of asphalt roads for different load capacities. For example, roads for cars up to 3.5 tons require a little gravel, a little asphalt and few workdays, while roads for 16+ tons (25+, 40+) require much more gravel, a little more asphalt and the mandatory availability of road equipment.


And wear and tear will have to affect the maximum speed of movement (as in snowfall), up to a dirt road of 35 km/h.


In this case, the weight restriction signs will be quite important, because the wear of the road will directly depend on the weight of the…

Please consider making a DLC, that combines all the best of the mods of these Highlights, giving a chance of the community to support these great modders and making their work an official addition to the game. There are quite a lot that could easily double or tripple the content of the base game.

Мда, как по мне приведите в порядок масштаб в игре, что бы все было одного масштаба, а то как-то все карикатурно, дороги автомобили, дорожки, они почти как дороги, и авто, особенно грузовики длинномеры двигающееся по дорожкам, ну такое себе. в чем проблема авто двигающееся по грунту, на котором нет дороги, это решение многих проблем. Да и введите масштаб и возможность управления масштабом в редактор, не уж-то применить scale такая проблема? И по редактору, приведите его в порядок, а то это назвать редактором, очень сложно, это скорее плохая поделка самоучки, хотя те могут куда получше И добавьте вы наконец уголь к паровозам в виде топлива, а то тошно смотреть как они заправляются бензином, и в чем проблема расширить виды топлива, керосин для…
