Car Dealer Simulator: Prologue - Early Days News

First Look at Office Customization

[h2]Hello Car Dealers![/h2]
In today’s devlog, we’re sharing more updates from the development of the Up 2 You DLC.
We’ve recently wrapped up the devlog series focused on vehicle customization. Now it’s time for office customization.

Today, we want to show you a few furniture sets that you’ll be able to swap inside your building.
The sets are divided into thematic styles. These are working names for now:

Texas
Steampunk
Cyberpunk
Modern

In the upcoming devlogs, we’ll reveal:

what you’ll be able to do with specific furniture pieces,
and what other elements you’ll be able to customize, to make your dealership fit your personal style even better.

PS. We encourage you to check out the full version of Car Dealer Simulator,

Upcoming Update Quality of Life

[h2]Hello Car Dealers![/h2]
You really enjoyed the last Quality of Life patch, so we prepared another one. It goes live tomorrow!

[h3]Upcoming changes to the full version of the game:[/h3]

Updated map and world markers
Refreshed markers and new icons improve readability and navigation.
Better color variety makes it easier to track your destination.
Map markers now also show whether the shop and the junkyard are currently open.
Additional price slider in negotiations
A new price slider added to negotiations, similar to the recent changes in the marketplace.
Non-negotiable price option
New vehicle listing option.
Vehicles can now be marked as non-negotiable.
This may increase the waiting time for a buyer, but once a customer is interested, they will buy the vehicle for the listed price without trying to lower it.
New vehicle listing distribution in the “Used Cars” website
Vehicles will now appear more evenly based on vehicle type.
This change will not be visible immediately, as existing listings have their own expiration dates.
Over time, the website will stabilize, and each vehicle type will be represented more evenly.
We also plan future improvements related to brands and specific models.
