What about the Hyperspin Flat Ride not opening after testing it? Will that ever get fixed? I reported it as a bug.
 
Nope, i just checked and unfortunatly not. Hopefully it will be fixed in a next update.

They are aware of the issue right? They have to be right? Please let the delay on this be because they're moving into a new office and they just need to hook up their computers before they get back to work on fixing this stuff...

Thank you for the update and the listing of what's been fixed! Good work!

The white parts, I am sure they are aware of it. Maybe it is harder/more time consuming to fix.

Awesome. Those black shadows were creeping me out, I'm glad they're gone! That's a relief.

I hope the iron chimney and other few pieces that have turned white will get some attention next update.

And also no mention of the autosave problem either being fixed. So if your game crashes from the advanced move issue.. And the autosave didnt kick in for the last three hours you lose all your work. Its sad that ai have to make a timer on my tablet every 15mins to manually save just in case the game doesnt

Yep -- one of the two issue making the game outright unplayable for me since they were introduced in the 1.6.0 update has now been fixed, thanks Frontier. The other one hasn't, nor the ones making it unpleasant enough not to bother. [rolleyes]

They are aware, It has been acknowledged by Frontier in the bug forums [wink]
 
they've known about the same issue with other items in the game for over a year now and not bothered to fix those.. However thats two patches in about .. what.. 3-4 weeks.. so that's decent. better than 4 months. I can't help but notice all the patch notes seem to be things with Studio. Which makes me think that the DLC was rushed for sure. Not many mentions.. if any of issues fixed that have been in teh game for even longer. Like sound triggers, the auto save not working as it should, and of course the white colors on scenery.
