v0.2.54 - Parallel Work with Employees & Playstyle Setup

[p]Hello, ranchers! 🧑🏻‍🌾[/p][p][/p][p]We’re back with a new update that gives you more flexibility in how you manage your farm, store, and workers. These additions are all about letting you play your way, streamline your workflow, and fine-tune your experience. Thanks to your valuable feedback through the in-app system and Steam Discussion forums, we’ve been able to implement several improvements and adjustments in this patch. Before we dive into the details, a quick reminder: our 20% launch discount is still active as part of the Steam Summer Sale, so grab it fast before the launch discount ended.[/p][p][/p][p]Now, let’s take a look at what’s new:[/p][p][/p][h3]1. Parallel Work with Employees[/h3][p]You can now work side-by-side with your employees. Whether you’re harvesting crops from planter boxes, restocking shelves, or taking care of animal pens, your staff can assist without interrupting your actions. This makes multitasking smoother and improves overall productivity on your farm.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]2. “Only Player Can Access” Option on Commodity Shelves[/h3][p]Need full control over specific shelves? You can now mark any commodity shelf as “Only Player Can Access”, which prevents employees from interacting with them. This is perfect for shelves that require special attention or limited-edition items you don’t want restocked automatically.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][h3]3. Playstyle Setup Introduced[/h3][p]We’ve introduced a Playstyle Setup system that allows players to fine-tune various gameplay parameters to better match their personal preferences. You can now adjust how fast in-game days pass, how quickly crops and livestock grow, and how often wild animals appear on your farm.[/p][p]This feature was added in response to the wide range of player preferences we’ve observed. While some players enjoy a faster-paced experience, others prefer a more realistic, slower rhythm that mimics real-life farming. With this system, you’re free to tailor the game to suit the pace and style you enjoy most.[/p][p]Please note: the Wild Animal Frequency setting has been moved from the general settings into this new Playstyle Setup. If you’ve previously customized this setting, your preferences will be automatically transferred, so you don’t need to reconfigure anything.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]As always, if you enjoy the game we’d be grateful if you leaving a review, and don’t hesitate to leave your thoughts or suggestions in the Discussions section. [/p][p][/p][p]Happy playing! 🐄🐓[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p][p][/p]
