Airport CEO Alpha 33.7-4 Released

Good morning airport CEO!

It's time for yet another default update. Alpha 33.7-4 brings a lot of improvements including early access testing of several new languages, a new path finding worker thread solution, new a check-in desk allocation system and loads of other fixes.

This update especially targets you who've had issues with stalled passengers and employees in a late-stage airport with around 2k+ passengers or more. This is by far the bulk of our current bug report backlog and to solve it we've overhauled a large part of how the simulation engine distributes and calculates paths across multiple requests. We'll dive deeper into this in today's dev blog!

Here are the full patch notes for this update:
