Thanks for playing Little Big Workshop <3 [h1]The Evil DLC v.2.0.14042[/h1] [b]UI, text and Language[/b] [list][*] Added back and close buttons in the sabotage browser [*] Changed how opponent activity is visualized in the market graph [*] Fixed a couple of situations where two tooltips were overlapping [*] The cash reward for contracts from Bladh are now presented [*] We noticed that it was somewhat confusing how players only advance to the next tier if they have reached the goal at the point of each market update. We therefore added a clock, counting down to the next market update, which is shown next to the threshold bar in the opponent UI [*] A good amount of minor layout and visibility improvements and polish [*] A few translation fixes and malfunctioning strings [/list] [b]Gameplay/Gamedesign[/b] [list][*] Fixed wrong lock on Stool product [*] Updated a couple of help section articles with new images [*] Removed some redundant help-section articles that only apply to the base game and not when the dlc is played, and vice versa. [*] Bladh requests now reward player with the correct amount of experience [*] Opponents are now even more aggressive when it comes to the amount and types of products that they choose to compete for on the market [/list] [b]Art[/b] [list][*] Forbid a number of products from being placed on shelves [*] Added more types of heads for the “Evil” Hauler model [*] Fixed a faulty frame in one of Bladh’s video calls [*] Fixed an issue with the light bake in the base game main menu [*] Touched up Bladh's castle, seen in one of the videos [/list] [b]Technical[/b] [list][*] Changes to the triggers associated with the hints and phone calls during the start of the DLC [*] Fixed an issue causing Bladh introduction challenge not to save properly [*] Aligned market offer competition data points with other data points in the same graph [*] Made it so keybinds alter depending on running dlc or base, specifically binds for milestones / competitors / clients vs opponents. [*] Fixed loading issue while doing the sabotage step of the introduction [*] The monitor screen flicker has been improved and should be less intensive. The effect should also remain the same over time and not freak out as it did before [*] Fixed an issue with hints not being shown on load after the second trigger to unlock sabotage feature [*] Lowered Synth volumes [*] Improved how sabotage products that are left behind are handled [*] A bugfix relating to a falsely claimed product/carryable [*] Added a load recovery for machine queues where entries have mysteriously ended up with a negative amount value [*] Fixed an issue where opponents would take over the market immediately [*] Fixed shader issues with terrain foliage [*] Fixed issue where opponents with lower marketing and sales value would produce too much on the market [*] Fixed sabotage products that were not delivered as part of their intended sabotage showing up in the UI again [*] Machines now use dlc appropriate material for icons [*] Fixed a bug where factories created in the current play session would not count as evil [/list]
