Fifth Minor Update

This one is very small:
  • Fixed money characters not displaying in certain languages
  • Fixed money prediction for upgrades (Thanks to everyone on the discord server for helping me fix it!)

Fourth Minor Update

Changes:
  • Added chain delete, you can now delete a row of gears
  • Added tooltip info over all structures
  • Changed AP/s to adapt in minutes and hours
  • Fixed chest reward being too low in some cases
  • Improved Chest sawn areas (should no longer spawn on the bottom of the map and not be able to connect to them)
  • Fixed "Industrial Revolution" and "Over 9000" achievements reliability, they should now unlock without any issue


Next patch:
  • Minigames will have numbers to aid colorblind players
  • More QoL improvements
  • More bug fixes


That is all for now.

Next patch will probably come out this week!

Third Minor Update

Bug Fixes:
  • Structures will no longer turn for a couple frames before stucking the network if the torque required is higher than the torque generated.
  • Chests can now be deleted by holding right click
  • Chest spawns are now limited to 15
  • Chest will now show "??" instead of a computed "ideal" time
  • Music will now play at the same speed after restarting the game
  • Lubbing gears are way easier to delete at high speeds
  • Fixed manufacturer hokey icon iterate over all numbers


That is all for now.

Next patch will focus on QoL improvements.

Thanks for all the feedback and Ideas, I really appreciate it!

Second Minor Update

As was needed, I have reworked the tutorial for the game. Hopefully this way the mechanics of it will be learned much easier. Let me know what do you think about it!

Corrected a bug with manufacturers that would make them ignore speed reductions on the connected gear.

First Minor Update

Added hotkeys (from 1 to 0) for all the gears.
Lubing gears notification is now red and much more visible, so you can instantly get to where the stucked gear is

Bug fixes:
Structures will no longer turn by clicking the golden gear if your network is at 0 production due to the load being too high
Manufacturers will now update the network load when placed
Fixed a crash when ascending and the game language was set to Japanese
Fixed chests spawning on top of the ascension gear
Fixed chests spawning over gears and automatically connecting to them

Next steps, fix more bugs and improve the tutorial/learning of the game.
