WORLD OF PARANOIA News

- This is a small patch to make a minor correction to the music in the game.

This update focuses on the rebranding of some icons and some slight improvements to the game.

Changelog v1.55:

IMPROVEMENTS

- The fonts used by the game are now included in the compilation in case a player does not have those fonts installed on their computer (although they are common fonts).

- Now when a citizen is assigned a job, he or she moves immediately to his or her place of work.
- Added new button in the Custom Game Settings to return to the main game panel.
- When the cursor is placed over the accuracy icon when a citizen is being watched, it now directly indicates the text message that the citizen is a traitor if he or she has been spotted.

CHANGES
- Changed the colour of the 'Quit Game' button in the options, so that it stands out more and there is no confusion.
- Changed the look of the 'Load' button in options.
- Changed the appearance of the Delete File or Delete List button.
- Changed the image of the Weapons button.
- Changed the image of the Build Mining Robots button.
- Changed the image of the Build Combat Robots button.
- Changed the image of the Build Science Robots button.

- Changed the image of the Soma Pills button.

FIXED
- A flicker in the end-of-turn event text is now avoided.
- Correctly aligned an icon in the war result panel.
- Fixed some texts.

This is possibly the best update the game has received to date.

Mother wants to make it easier for players to rule their Utopias, so It has provided the game with many new options to quickly find unhappy, unproductive or outright traitorous citizens (among other things), at the click of a button. Research turns have been reduced. This updare also offers more information to the player, and improved graphics.
All these changes have been focused on making the game even more fun.
