NEW METROSTROI UPDATE IS AVAILABLE ON STEAM WORKSHOP!!!
As you may see, on our servers and in Discord sometimes was a message from Metrostroi Special Delivery Bot. On the gold.metrostroi.net we made a player list, enshrines a significant contribution to the development, support, and creation of the Metrostroi mod and a dedication to its community. People in this honor list will stay there forever. To each of its participants except usual reverser wrench in game available The golden reverser wrench with unique appearance and number. This is our thanks to the people who help us all the time developing the mod, donated, and to those who made something their, unique, developing and supporting mod.
Check your subscription to the main addon and content. If you already subscribed to them - just restart the game, content will update automatically. (Recommendation just in case - delete all incompatible addons with other trains and "downloads", "download", "cache" folders from Garry's Mod folder.)
For any information, help and advice join our Discord server. There you can get all help or info, ask a question to developers or report some bug in special channel. Among other things in additional news you can find change list, we recommend to read it!

CHANGE LIST: https://wiki.metrostroi.net/wiki/TheBigOne
Over the past weeks, we have continued to work on the update and have done a lot of work. An important feature concerns a solution to make the installation and playing of the mod easier for the user, along with the user being able to manually control mod performance. Here are a few important changes:
- New controlling systems, high and low voltage electric circuits, equipment systems of type «D», «E», «Ezh», «Ema-502», 81-717, 81-718.0. Changed logic for 334 and 013 brake valves as well as pneumatic brake effort. Electric circuits of the types «Ema-502», «E», and «Ezh» use new rheostatic braking systems. The new systems use the PT1 and PT2 electric circuits with 36 single rotating positions without the thyristor regulator.
- Wagons type «D» (81-702) head and intermediate with a few skins. Electric circuits of type «D» fully similar to the real unit from Moscow Metro underground lines.
- Wagons type «Em-501» (intermediate) and «Ema-502» (head) with dark-blue St. Petersburg skin. These wagons have options for changing the cabin and control methods. 2 variants of these models have been derived from the first (KVL) and third (NVL) St. Petersburg lines. Electric circuits are similar to the real unit.
- New wagons type 81-717 and 81-714 and relevant modifications from various factories for Moscow and St. Petersburg. Model made in a few modifications and skin variations.
- Wagons type 81-718.0 and 81-719.0 have a thyristor drive system, modified in Kharkiv.
- New systems: ARS-D, ARS-MP, BARS for 81-717, KSAUP for «Ema-502», PA-M, PUAV.
Fixed ALS frequency and block signalling mistakes.
New headlight system that glows and adds a halo effect.
New skins system (each skin doesn’t have identical shaders).
New sounds of motors, movement noise, pneumatic valves, BPSN and undercar equipment.
Simulation of voltage dips of low voltage circuits and interior lights.
Emergency and normal lighting of cabin and gauges for all «E» and «D» types.
Radio relay announcer with voice.
Line schemes, wagon number signs, destination signs, and route number signs.
New body and cabin model.
New switches and buttons.
New old type ARS panel (arrow).
Changed dashboard textures.
New appearance of interior with skin support.
Changed drive characteristics.
Improved the high voltage circuits.
ARS-Dnepr relay-type system.
Corrected 334 and 013 brake valves to simulate real life, relay delay, relay and contactor sounds.
Control circuits correspond to 81-717.5 with ARS-D system.
New body and cabin model.
New wagon version 81-717 KVR from St. Petersburg (after repair).
Added BARS, PUAV, PA-M systems.
Added new switches and lamps.
Corrected 334 and 013 brake valves to simulate real life, relay delay, relay and contactor sounds.
Changed drive characteristics and electric circuits.
New body model, unified with other type «E» trains.
Skin selection can now be for all «E» types concurrently.
New dashboard variant of the old train with arrow speedometer.
New interior skins.
Selection between two modifications of the «Ezh» dashboard (old arrow speedometer or new digital).
Changed skins and their saturation.
Drive and brake characteristics are changed according to electric circuit. (36 positions of RK for brake, implemented PT1 and PT2).
ARS-MP system for head wagons with working in-cab signalling.
("A" indicator near windshield).
Working “autoblocking” switches to allow movement with no ARS frequency. This may be done by pressing the driver’s and the driver’s helper buttons.
Changed positions and colors of switches.
Added switch stickers with information for more interactive gameplay.
Working switch to emergency control KRU, KRR.
Type «Em508» unified with «Ezh». Old «Em508» model will permanently removed.
New body model, unified with other type «E» trains.
New switches in the cabin.
New cabin and interior textures.
Electric circuits of the first type «E» wagons, with old emergency controls circuits.
Fixed ARS system bugs.
Materials and textures improved.
New cabin skins type.
Removed RP lamp on intermediate wagons 81-724.
Changed drive characteristics.
Changed some textures.
Changed intermediate wagon 81-721.
Changed sounds of wagons.
Some changes are not finished yet. This changelog will update once those changes have been added and an update is pushed.
Detailed changelog is bigger but doesn't need a description here.
There is an interesting feature is used in the new system of simulation of electrical circuits: in the control circuits there are Voltage dips, which can be observed from the varying brightness of the indication lamps.
Hi! For a new model of 81-717 metrocar we've created the new system of enabling/disabling interior lights. Now you can see the difference between the color of lamps (cold/warm color variation for each lamp)
