Idling Gears News

Hello everyone, this update adds afk progress for ascension points and chests.

Chests
Chests will have no limit and can be 100% opened while away, so once you return you can just claim its reward.

Ascension Points
For the ascension points this limit is tight with the ascension upgreades regarding afk time.

Welcome Back Screen
Also everytime you come back to the game a new screen will have a summary of what you've earned while away.

Other changes and additions
This update also adds:

• New advanced setting option to remove zoom on chain delete
  
• New advanced setting to change autosave frequency
  
• Minigame gears will not activate/work if they are disabled by a switch
  

Smaller bug fixes. That's all for now, hope you like this update!

This update should fix the game not appearing on the taskbar after launching and switching to another window/app.
Manufacturers will now not apply load once they are done crafting momma gears + some visual improvements to them.

Quick small update.

Next update will rework afk progress of the game...
The idea I have right now for this future update is that chests will still countdown when the game is closed, and you will also get 5% of your money and ascension production by default, which will be upgradeable with ascension points. These afk upgrades will also affect your ascension points. Hope this sounds good, open to suggestions, let me know what you think in the comments of this update!

After some beta testing, update 7 is back, here is the change list:

• Added stats window
  
• Added optimization/advanced settings menu (numbers for minigames now need to be activated in this menu)
  
• Fixed chest connection hitbox
  
• Fixed AFK giving less money than real values
  
• Fixed money generators torque ascension bug
  
• Improvements to the resolution selection tab
  

You can now tweak settings in the new "advanced settings" menu to make the game less taxing on your system, will probably add even more options in the future, as always let me know what you think!

That is all for now, I hope you like it!

I am seeing some instability in the latest update, I am reversing to the previous stable version, will fix it and reupdate the game, sorry for any inconvenience.
