Patch v0.11.173.r

[h3]Extra! Extra dear newsbearers![/h3]


New improvements and fixes in this patch!
Read the fresh patch notes below!



[h2]IMPROVEMENTS[/h2]

[h3]Comfort[/h3]
  • Soap bottle can now be placed on the washing station.
  • Small, medium and large plants can now be combined for greater effect.

[h3]Employees[/h3]
  • Adjusted XP rates for certain desk interactions: typesetters and assemblers now gain 25% less XP per task accomplished, whereas copy editors and lawyers now get 100% more XP per task.

[h3]Loading times[/h3]
  • The algorithm that takes place in the background during the recap that decides on next week’s content possibilities has been optimized a bit and runs faster (there could be a noticable lag on older machines between the recap and the area map).
  • The algorithm that takes place in the background during the recap’s memory allocations have been refactored such that hopefully it will mitigate the crash that happened for some people.

[h3]Miscellaneous[/h3]
  • Moving printer objects does NOT automatically place printer belt corners when you move a module away. This simplifies the behaviour for many people we think, as the chances of a belt being left behind are reduced.
  • Recap page now displays influence points gained by doubling in value when placed in above the fold slot.




[h2]FIXES[/h2]
  • Stash fix - Removing a printer module that was connected to another module with small plants on it would stash the plants and sell the module instead of stash it.
  • Stash fix - Unstashing a staircase door by dragging it on the entrance does not count towards an unstash of the door.
