Hello, sysadmins!
For this update, I focused on tutorials, interface usability, and localization. An evening cleaner has joined the office, while expanded learning materials, a knowledge base, and an IP calculator should make networking easier to understand.
Tutorials and Useful Tools
Expanded and reworked tutorials covering IPv4 and subnets, switches, routers, VLANs, static routing, network printing, and cable tracing.
Added an F1 knowledge base with searchable articles you can consult during gameplay.
Added an IP calculator to the in-game browser for subnet calculations, address ranges, and checking whether addresses belong to the same subnet. It also works without an internet connection.
Updated Interface
Redesigned the main menu, settings, pause menu, tutorial catalog, loading screen, and daily report.
Improved the readability of objectives and subtasks.
Fixed overlapping elements, clipped text, and button interaction issues. Improved notifications and visual progress feedback.
A Livelier Office
Added an evening cleaner to Career mode. She cleans the office, collects items left behind, and places them on a shelf.
You can talk to her and retrieve the item she is carrying.
Added smooth animations for picking up, switching, and placing items.
Networks and Hardware
Fixed issues involving VLANs, DNS, SSH, and accessing websites by IP address.
Resolved several problems with replacing drives and operating systems and restoring computers to working order.
Improved network printing, printer queues, CPU cooling, and uninterruptible power supplies.
Localization Across All Supported Languages
Updated and expanded translations across all supported languages, including the interface, tutorials, knowledge base, objectives, employee emails, and dialogue.
Fixed missing translations, inaccurate wording, and inconsistent terminology.
Improved font and character rendering. Tutorials and the knowledge base now follow the selected game language more reliably.
Objectives and Saves
Improved objective completion checks and Career progression after loading a save.
Revised employee emails and objective descriptions.
Improved save and load reliability, along with compatibility with older saves.
Thank you for your feedback and bug reports - they help me keep improving the game.
See you at the office!
