Last night Zwift pushed out update 1.0.10145 to its users. While this update does not include the much-anticipated Watopia mountain route or group ride features (which we’ve been assured are coming soon!) it does include some notable changes including:
- Pause screen no longer pops up to take the full screen every time you stop. Excellent! This was an annoyance when pulling to the start line before a race.
- TT bike drafting has been turned off. There is some debate on Facebook about whether or not this is a good thing, but I support this move because it makes the TT bike behave in the way Zwift HQ has said it should behave.
- The ability to change bikes while in motion has been removed. KISS race organizers aren’t very happy about this, since quick bike switches have become a part of the racing strategy. But I support this change as well, since it makes equipment changes more realistic.
- Chat censoring enabled in game, as well as flagging fliers via the mobile app. Hopefully this will clean up the chat (which is pretty tame as it is) and help keep fliers off the course as well.
There are lots of other changes in this update–see all the details of the version 1.0.10145 update here >
