It’s been one week since release ..and we’re still alive! As with the release of LBW last year it’s been quite a ride for everyone at the studio, but we are thrilled to finally share The Evil DLC with you all! Since the release last week we have been hard at work fixing up bugs and polishing the game across the board, see patch notes below. As always - thanks to the community for tracking, reporting and sending in your feedback. We also expect to release another small patch some time next week to work out some of the final kinks and quirks. - Until then, take care, spread the word and embrace your inner evil! [h1]The Evil DLC v.2.0.13976[/h1] [b]UI, text and Language[/b] [list][*] Fixed a couple of cases where UIs were overlapping and multiple tooltips were shown simultaneously [*] Made the progress meter for selected sabotage amounts easier to read - different coloration and the min and max amount is written out [*] Fixed an issue when trying to open a UI from the basegame while playing the DLC. [*] Fixed an issue causing old saved plans attributes to hide behind the worksheet in planning mode [*] Re-sorted the appearance of competitors skills - they should always appear in the same order now. [*] Fixed an issue with the sold sign not showing correctly on an object being sold [*] Fixed an indicator from showing general research points earned, when you actually earned evil points [*] Made the button background for Evil Workforce dark red - some players did not think it was active due to the greyish color before [*] Increased the contrast on buttons that were in a toggled state [*] Fixed a good amount of texts, translation and string issues.
