City Transport Simulator - Update v1.4.0 + Basel Style Cosmetic DLC

City Transport Simulator – Update v1.4.0 is out now!

With update v1.4.0, we’re expanding City Transport Simulator with Head & Eye Tracking, new collectibles, improved control options, extensive AI improvements, and a brand-new cosmetic DLC. This update focuses on immersion, improvements, and driving feel—whether you’re playing with a controller, steering wheel, or eye tracking.

✨ New Add-on: Cosmetic DLC – Basel Style

With the new Cosmetic DLC: Basel Style, a clean and fresh look comes to your city— inspired by the cityscape of Basel.

• Basel-inspired station styles
  
• Authentic station signs & shelters in various sizes
  
• Matching decorative elements
  
• Dynamic display of line and station names
  
• Classic green vehicle livery for all vehicles
  

🧠 New Technology – Head & Eye Tracking

With v1.4.0, all vehicles now support Head & Eye Tracking via TrackIR and Tobii Eye Tracker. Freely move your view around the cockpit and experience an even more immersive driving experience.

🚦 AI & Traffic – Noticeable Improvements in Everyday Gameplay

☕ The Mug Collection – Public Transport to Collect

With v1.4.0, we’re introducing a brand-new type of collectible: lovingly designed mugs! Each mug focuses on public transport in a specific city and captures its characteristic fleet and style.

Look forward to designs from Vienna, Berlin, Munich, Basel, and of course Tramau. Each mug is uniquely designed and comes with a short informational text about the history of public transport in that city.

Just like previous collectibles, you can find the mugs at the familiar vending machines spread throughout the city—usually near bus stops, transport hubs, or other high-traffic areas.

🚌 New Bus Keychains

The popular keychains are making a comeback—this time as bus variants! After the great response to the tram keychains during Early Access, we’re expanding the collection with six new bus keychains.

They are once again scattered all across Tramau, waiting to be discovered. And who knows—maybe they even hint at which bus model might be coming next to City Transport Simulator …

🎮 Controls & Driving Feel – More Control Than Ever

• 🕹️ Crank Controller for Trams
  A completely new way to control trams with a controller. The crank controller allows for more precise acceleration and smoother driving—especially for fans of classic vehicles.
  
• 🎮 Extended Controller Mapping
  Even more freely assignable controller functions, for example to bind the parking brake to a button of your choice.
  
• ⚙️ Force Feedback for Xbox Steering Wheels
  Realistic force feedback is now available on Xbox as well and can be fine-tuned—just like on PC and PlayStation—using sliders in the gameplay settings.
  

⚠️ Notice for Logitech G920 users on PC

We’d like to inform you that some players experienced crashes when using a Logitech G920 with City Transport Simulator on PC. After extensive testing, we were able to confirm that the issue was not caused by the game itself, but by a specific version of Logitech G Hub.

The affected version was G Hub 2025.9.807502, which prevented City Transport Simulator from launching correctly when a G920 was connected. We have been in contact with Logitech regarding this issue.

Good news: Logitech has since released an update for G Hub that fixes this crash in City Transport Simulator as well as in other games. Please update G Hub to the latest version or download it directly from Logitech’s official website:
