Fixed a bug where the game might crash if a player tried to join a game just moments before the host started that game. Added new connect message alerting the player if they try to join a game that has already been started.ĥ. Fixed some cases where a player’s game could crash if the host kicked that player out.Ĥ. Fixed a bug where the game would crash if the chat window was opened when another event window would appear.ģ. Fixed some general Out-of-synch issues that, in the older version, decreased stability and caused other oddness (track not being in the same place on all player’s PCs)Ģ. The 1.02 patch greatly improves multiplayer stability and reduces out-of-synch issues, so we strongly encourage all multiplayer gamers to use this patch.ġ. Note: Players with the 1.02 patch CAN NOT play Multiplayer games against players with 1.00 or 1.01 versions of the game.

General: The 1.02 patch resolves a number of issues, especially in multi-player (some out-of-synch and crashing issues), as well as assorted single player issues (especially a crash-on-launch issue on certain Win 98 machines, and a stability issue seen on a small minority of computers – issues 1 and 2 in the Single Player/General section detailed below). But by all means have a go.Get the Railroad Tycoon 3 v1.02 patch off Worthplaying (1.5mb) As Australian maps are often like this, the AI doesn't work as well as in some Nth American & European scenarios. The other thing is that AI players don't cope well in maps with well-spaced, mostly smaller towns - they can't make enough to keep going (let's face it, they're not that bright!). This works better in some maps than others - scenarios take a lot of tweaking to get them playing well and if they're not desgned for AI players they may not work well. Save the game (maybe under a new name to preserve the original) and it will be in the maps list for you to play.

If you want AI players to be competitive then I suggest you also go into the Computer AI window and set aggressiveness to high. Here you can set the number of human and AI players. Click the last icon in the row down the left side of the screen (Control Panel), then choose Players. Sure is - but you have to change for each scenario, in the editor (main menu - extras - editor - load the scenario).
