Changes this round

  • LTL/FTL transport modes. Now you can choose whether your vehicles will accept shipments that are smaller than the minimum you set for each vehicle. For example, if your vehicle is set to a minimum of 40 goods, and is in FTL (Full Truck Load) mode, you won't get stuck with a 5 unit load. Those 5 units may go to another player's LTL (Less-Than-Load) mode vehicle later in the queue. You will need to decide the best strategy for your transports. If you have a Gold Membership, you can set LTL/FTL mode individually for each vehicle, or set all vehicles to the same mode with one click. Players without GM can only choose one mode for their entire fleet.
  • New vehicle pricing. Base prices for vehicles have dropped by half, but the price multiplier for additional vehicles of the same type is now 2x instead of 1.5x. This should allow more players to get into transports earlier in the round. It will also reduce the total number of vehicles later in the round, keeping city transport queues shorter.
  • Fuel efficiency. Vehicles now vary in their fuel efficiency. High fuel efficiency vehicles will cost you less in gasoline than low efficiency vehicles. Here are the MPG ratings for all types of vehicles: Cars 300 mpg, Trucks 250 mpg, Trailers 150 mpg, Trains 500 mpg, Airplanes 200 mpg.
  • Changed voting rewards. Now you only need to vote at 5 voting sites per day to get the maximum reward. Plus, the reward amounts will increase as the round goes on. We strongly encourage all players to vote for Tycoon Online at the voting sites. This is one of the best ways for us to attract new players. New players make the game more fun and also help cover the cost of running the game.
