Hi everyone,
I'm super excited to finally release this update to all of you. Since release the biggest complaint has been lag and performance issues when workstation count increases.
The solution was not easy and I'm not even done yet. I've been rewriting large parts of the code base to make rendering more efficient. This rewrite also allows me to improve performance further.
Hopefully this update will make the game playable for most players. I'm still targeting a lot of performance improvements in the future.
System requirements on the Store page have also been increased. I will reduce the requirements as more improvements are implemented.
Beta 12.6 changes (hotfix)
- Issue causing some users not being able to load savegames
Beta 12.7 changes
Features:
- Added Russian localization
- Added Turkish localization
- Disabled user loss for products until it's fully fixed (was causing players to lose all users overnight).
Fixes:
- Optimized the way workstation updates is rendered.
- Detached internal lifecycle from UI.
- Optimized amount of repaints to reduce CPU usage.
- Automatically disable Developer Mode after second launch (some players were not able to start game after enabling it).
- Optimized the way user growth was calculated (was exponentially increasing calculation time).
- Fixed bug where crashing mods could not be unsubscribed.
- Disable F5 and F12 shortcuts if Developer Mode is disabled.
- Increases amount of candidates generated.
- Fixed various translation issues.
- Show managers in HR Managers employee list.
Next up
Even though I would love to keep working on performance, I will now move my focus to fixing bugs. You have all been very active at reporting bugs, so I have plenty of work ahead of me :-)
Thank you for your attention, I hope you enjoy this update!
All the best,
Jonas
