OpenRCT2 v0.4.20 “Both peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro” released!
We’re back early! This month has seen a tremendous amount of bugfixes, many of them fixing little bugs in how roller coaster tracks are drawn. As such, we have decided to name this release of improved vision “Both peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro”! But it’s not just bugfixes, as this release also add diagonal sloped brakes and several QoL changes to the interface. We would like to thank @mix for sending in most these fixes, as well as @ZeeMaji for testing all of them.
