Hi everyone, it's been a while since the last update and we hope this update will worth the waiting.
As you can see from the title, this is the biggest update Market Tycoon has every received and there is a lot of new features and bug fixes, so let's go into it.
First, what has been fixed:
• Fixed restock all showing the wrong price. (When hovering over the restock button it tells you how much restocking the shelf will cost, the value here was totally wrong and now has been fixed)
• Fixed item getting rotated in the wrong direction. (Sometimes when moving a shelf with items in it and rotating the shelf, the item stay in the same direction before rotating the shelf, this has been fixed with this version) It's worth mentioning that if you experienced this bug before, the affected items might not be fixed but this bug will not happen again.
• Fixed a bug where item popularity doesn't get loaded.
• Fixed a bug where the "?" sign not going away next to popularity when when "+" or "-" is added.

• Fixed a bug where people get stuck next to the door or cashier.
Next, Improvements:
• A small improvement in AI pathfinding.
• Optimized game performance especially when placing items.
• Small Graphics/Color changes. Here are the before and after images.
And there are many many more smaller bug fixes and improvements.
Now, the fun part. What's new:
• Many asked for this feature, Price Change. Yes, now you can increase or decrease prices. (Changed "Quick Stats & Discount" to "Quick Stats and Price Change")

Now we need a favour from you. We are planning on having a loading screen with market images, to do that, while in-game hold Ctrl and hit U the game will freeze for a few seconds or depending on your internet speed as a screenshot of your market is being uploaded and sent to us. If we liked your market, you might see it on a loading screen in a future update.
There are much more planned features to come in the future as we sail along in the development of Market Tycoon.
That's it for now and thank you for waiting for this update.
