Hi, LMS2 Players!
First of all, we’d like to thank you all again for your support for LMS2 since launch!
The next patch for Lawn Mowing Simulator 2 will be released very soon! We’ve been keeping a close eye on the discussions surrounding the game since launch, and the team have been hard at work improving the gameplay experience and taking all your feedback into consideration!
The 2 most common requests were for the tarpaulin to appear more often and for players to have the ability to see where equipment has been assigned. Initially, it was designed so that the tarp would only appear for debris disposal contracts, but we have listened to the feedback and the tarp will now also be offered for clearance contracts. This will be optional to use but for those who want your yard to be leaf free, then the tarp will be there for you to use!
Therefore, the upcoming update will include:
- The tarpaulin will now be available on the back of the truck at clearance contracts if you want to use it
- The contract assignment screen has been reworked, so it is easier to see what is assigned where, as well as the addition of a key to explain the icons
- Lionbridge Lane – The kerbs and low walls have been updated for better collisions
- Removal of collision on some bushes and plants, which will make these location borders and flowerbeds easier to navigate
- Updated contract generation system, which will allow more variety of locations
- More optimisation work done has been completed to improve performance
- Loading screen behaviour updated so you don’t have to press a button multiple times to get into a contract (which was a common feedback request)
- Removed camera bounce on mowers for a smoother mowing experience
- A fix has been implemented at the beginning of the game where a contract loop could occur
- Some hidden achievements that were not unlocking in certain circumstances have been fixed, so this should no longer be an issue
- Improved respawning for when a player falls out of the world, and we have updated the respawn option on the pause menu to work when on a mower
There’s still plenty more we’re working on behind the scenes, and we’ll still be keeping ourselves up-to-date on your feedback! There will be more updates and improvements to come which we will share in due course.
In the meantime, this update will go live on Steam first this week, and consoles will follow as soon as we are able.
