[h1]‘Tis the Season to be Jolly![/h1]Winter is here and all your factories have been properly decorated and filled with Holiday-themed details. Build your own little version of Santa’s workshop and try building some of the new seasonal products, including toys, sleds and snowmobiles!
Who knows, maybe even the white-bearded man himself may need some help...
[i]( Note that all seasonal content of this sort can be toggled on or off from the options menu )[/i]

[h1]Construction Tool Revamp[/h1]We have created and implemented “Version 2” of the construction tools. Players should now have an easier time creating and modifying rooms and areas within their factories.

[h1]Pause Button!![/h1]The community cried out, and we answered - you can now pause the game!
You’ll find this button next to the other speed controls in the bottom UI.
Beyond that, there's also a whole bunch of smaller tweaks and fixes, see list below.
[b] - We hope you'll like it and wish you all happy holidays![/b]
[b]Tweaks[/b]
[list][*]Added a floor mat to a couple of products so you can more easily see what area they occupy.
[*]Rats don't reproduce quite as aggressively as they used to.
[*]Specialised operators are now noticeable better at their jobs compared to regular operators.
[*]Changed ‘worker on break’ icon.
[*]Changed notifications using camera view to have an icon instead.
[*]Rewrote the game over message so it comes across as a bit nicer.
[*]Products are now centred on shelves so they can be seen from any perspective.
[*]Implemented a system to delay workers from taking on work that is far away. This should lead to less workers running across the entire factory if there’s another worker more suitable nearby.
[*]Players can now toggle overdrive on a project basis. The button can be reached by hovering over each project tracker on the right side of the screen.
[*]Implemented an optional “free camera” as a gameplay setting. This disables the forced 90 degree increments that our default camera has so you can rotate freely around the focus point.
[*]The filters in the worker UI have been switched to include rather than exclude. If no filters have been selected, all workers are listed.
[*]You can now see how close a worker is to reach their next rank - check the fill of each star in the worker UI.
[*]Longer Deadlines now affect ‘special’ challenge contracts as well.
[*]Improved our hint system so players don’t get informed about things that we probably can assume they already learned or know about.
[*]Reduced the clicking area on shelves to make it easier to use, especially with small zones below it.
[*]Further extended the time between each 'taunt' call from Nemesis Inc.
[*]Created a close button on the win-screen, instead of closing by clicking anywhere on the screen.
[*]Scrapping products now correctly chooses the closest scrap container.
[*]Various small improvements to art assets - a texture here, a model there, a little bit of housekeeping!
[*]Fixed and improved a good bunch of localisation and language issues.
( Big shout-out to our community on this one, especially ‘Thrifler’ and ‘Landwalker’, for your help with many of these! )[/list]
[b]Fixes[/b]
[list][*]Fixed some odd UI behaviour on super ultra wide screen.
[*]Fixed an issue where delivery trucks could leave even though a worker is en route for dropoff.
[*]Fixed a missing description to the Naval Cannon and the Standard Bicycle.
[*]Fixed issue where description remained of dead market offer.
[*]Fixed an incorrect icon and tool-tip for the Longer Deadline tech.
[*]Fixed an issue where a workstation would count as two workstations if it was planned to move.

[*]Fixed an issue making it impossible to change game speed when you had several callers in queue on the phone.
[*]Fixed an issue where an operation type was categorised incorrectly.
[*]Fixed an issue where billboard stats could be seen from the planning mode.
[*]Planned(but not yet built) rooms can no longer be infected by mold.
[*]Walls seen when using the construction tool now also respect the hide walls setting.
[*]Changed the input for plan name to allow for all languages to have a similar experience.
[*]Fixed an issue with floating products in loading bay, causing vehicles to get stuck.[/list]
