So I discovered that there was a trojan file that appeared recently. I wasn't notified about it when I first bought and downloaded the game, but now the game is inoperable because of a file that is named as follows.

Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml

Now this file is preventing the game from starting. Steam won't allow it to run in fact, and the file itself has been quarantined. I'm not exactly sure what to do since this might be a game file issue, but the game is unplayable atm and I really wanna get back to buildin my trains haha.

Hahaha help xD

@amber mist @wanton compass Defender does some goofy things. It's a known false positive, you can safely reinstate the file without issue

As I said

#

You have to unblock that file

#

Within your antivirus

#

If you don't know how to do that I suggest a Google search

I mean if you elected to read you'd know that. Yes lmao

As I said it's a false positive those can occur whenever your AV updates their virus dictionaries
