Joining a crew did nothing. The cab was being built by a replicated entervehicle that the authority posted only when it had no cab of its own - which is exactly the case that never happens for the second person to board. The host claims a vehicle, the server builds a cab, and from then on every further claim finds one already standing over there, posts nothing, and the joining peer waits forever for a command that is not coming. A cab is not a shared object. Each participant has their own, with their own camera and their own view of it, and nothing about it needs to travel. So it is built locally by whoever needs one: the driver mode does it for the player when their claim is granted, and the authority does it for itself, because it needs a cab to address the AI handover commands to. That also stops a cab being created on every peer for every claimed vehicle, which is what the entervehicle broadcast was doing. Who runs a shared train is no longer decided by car numbering. It is whoever boarded first, and it stays with them: every crew member is stamped with a session-wide counter when they sit down, and the smallest stamp on the whole consist owns the physics. Coupling, uncoupling and renumbering do not move it, and neither does somebody else joining - each handover is a stutter in the ride of the person who has been driving, and they are the one who would notice it. The stamps travel with CREW_UPDATE and in the snapshot, because a client works out ownership for itself and has to arrive at the same answer. Chat: the key that opens it is now read before imgui gets a look at the input. Any window holding the keyboard - the lobby, most likely, which is precisely where a client sits - would swallow it, so on that side the panel could not be opened at all. The exception is text actually being typed, which is the chat box itself; escape closes that. A client also logs what it says, so if a line goes missing it is clear which half of the trip lost it. Protocol version 6, snapshot version 7.

Website · Report an issue · Community Discord · MaSzyna on Steam · MaSzyna on Epic Games Store
MaSzyna executable source code is licensed under the MPL 2.0 and comes with a large pack of free assets under a custom license.
Table of Contents
Getting Started
MaSzyna compiles and runs natively on Linux and Windows. Other platforms are not tested.
Heads-up
Our dev team is small; we keep improving the build process, but issues may still occur. If you get stuck, please ask on the official Discord server.
Prerequisites
For runtime requirements see Minimum Requirements.
1) Software (oldest tested in parentheses)
Note: MinGW is currently not supported.
2) Libraries (oldest tested in parentheses)
-
GLFW 3.x (3.2.1)
If a link error occurs, pass-DGLFW3_LIBRARIES="<path>"to CMake. -
GLM (0.9.9.0)
-
libserialport (0.1.1)
-
libsndfile (1.0.28)
-
LuaJIT (2.0.5)
-
GLEW (2.1.0)
-
libpng (1.6.34)
-
OpenAL (1.18.2)
-
pthread
-
Python 3.14 (64-bit; headers and import library required for embedding)
-
Asio (1.12)
3) Graphics API
- OpenGL 3.0 or newer
- DirectX 12 via NVRHI (optional, Windows only, for Better Renderer)
CMake flags
| Flag | Meaning |
|---|---|
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug |
Debug build |
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release |
Release build |
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo |
Release build with debug symbols |
-DWITH_BETTER_RENDERER=ON/OFF |
Enable/disable NVRHI-based renderer |
-DPython3_ROOT_DIR=<path> |
Root of the Python 3.14 install on Windows (python.exe, Lib, DLLs) for embed/copy steps; on Linux, optional if CMake picks the wrong interpreter |
Linux note:
WITH_BETTER_RENDERERuses DirectX 12 through NVRHI and is not supported on Linux.
Windows
Install Python 3.14 x64 from python.org and include the optional Python native development feature (headers and .lib for embedding). Pass -DPython3_ROOT_DIR="C:\Path\To\Python314" on the cmake line when you want the layout under that directory used for embedding and for copying Lib / DLLs next to the executable.
AppVeyor CI builds with the worker image’s preinstalled Python at C:/Python314-x64 (see appveyor.yml: -DPython3_ROOT_DIR=...).

Installing
There is no make install yet. Copy the built executable to your MaSzyna installation manually.
-
Output directory:
./bin -
File name format:
eu07_YYYY-MM-DD_<commit>[_d]-
YYYY-MM-DD– build date -
<commit>– short commit hash -
_d– present in Debug builds
-
If you already have the MaSzyna assets, copy the executable to the install dir. Assets can be downloaded from eu07.pl.
Rainsted on Linux
If Rainsted (a third‑party starter) fails to detect the executable under Linux, you can create a small wrapper script named eu07.exe:
#!/bin/sh
./eu07 "$1" "$2" "$3" "$4" "$5"
If detection still fails, padding the file (with comments) up to ~1 MB may help.
Known Issues
-
GLFW linking – On some systems you must provide the GLFW library path explicitly with
-DGLFW3_LIBRARIES. -
X11/Wayland linking order – Linking order of X11 and related libs can matter.
-
NVRHI on Linux – The NVRHI/"Better Renderer" path targets DirectX 12 and is currently unsupported on Linux.
