Hello everyone,
We hope you are having a great time! We are here again with another update for the Preview branch (at the bottom the instructions on how to access it if you want). And yes the update on the default branch is still planned for the end of the month
We have to start with the usual warning about this update: the new and cool features in the preview branch can be a bit buggy and not balanced perfectly. Also, they are not translated in all languages as we can only do big patches of translation at a time. We are sorry for this but we hope you can understand. You are truly helping us out by giving us feedback on these new features in preview mode and we are ever so grateful for that.
But lets get straight to the heart of this update!
PRODUCERS NOW CAN BE PRIORITIZED

Now, from the warehouse panel, you can view all of your producers, what they're producing, and prioritize them so that your workers focus more on those. You can even filter by plant type and prioritize all of them at once! This is a highly requested feature to give you more control over your priorities. Let us know if it meets your needs.
BALANCING
With the January update we made playing Roboplant pretty hard, we started balancing this off and this is what we did:
- Reduced the amount of time workers spent managing the production
- Reduced the time needed by workers to refill their needs
- Increased refill per minute of relax machines
- Decreased performance of vertical seeder
This should help you produce more with less time and therefore help you make more money. Come and complain if its still too unbalanced
NEW TUTORIAL AND ADDITIONAL SUPPORT PANEL

We are working on a new and more comprehensive tutorial, both for those that are starting from scratch and those that need additional tips.
Now the first time you open a panel Beebop will tell you a bit more about it, and if in case later on you need a reminder you can always click on the question mark in the top right corner.
Please let us know what you think and if you think something should be added.
