Quality of Life Improvements

This update features the following changes:

  • The game speed text will say "Paused" when the game is paused, such as in menus
  • The "Shift" key has been added as an alternative to the mouse scroll wheel for users without a scrolling mouse (eg touchpad). This will be removed in the future when controls remapping is finalised.
  • Added a tutorial popup (forced) if the player hasn't used for [mouse scroll] button or [shift] but has been playing around 2 days, so they know they can rotate/change camera angle more freely. This is trigger by them using [Q] or [E] rotation, which is the more basic camera rotation control binding. Another tutorial popup for using the shortcut [Ctrl] button is now also forced (will show regardless of if said you didn't want to see tutorials, although it's rare to ever trigger these two tutorials without looking like you would greatly benefit from them).
  • Added "View Previous" button to the interactive tutorial. This will show you the text from the previous instruction if you missed it.
  • Tweaks to how the game determines if the screen is 16:9 or 16:10 to shape UI appropriately.
  • Energy Hub Substations graph can now show the Renewables Percentage (eg what percentage is power on the network comes from renewables as a percentage of all power generation).
  • Grid battery now shows on a new line for the info for the Energy Hub Substation, stopping the window width changing regularly
  • Default UI window scaling is now 125% for steamdeck instead of its previous 150%
  • Other minor tweaks and fixes

In Power Network Tycoon, you embark on a journey to establish and manage the power network for a thriving new island community. With an ever-growing demand for electricity, you must strategically plan and construct an efficient and robust power grid to meet the needs of community residents and businesses.



Power management is not just about keeping the lights on; it's about delivering a smooth and stable electricity supply. In Power Network Tycoon, you'll need to monitor and optimize various aspects of power quality, such as power factor and balancing loads between phases. Addressing these factors will improve the reliability of your network and keep your customers satisfied.

As you navigate the intricate world of power system analysis and industry engineering standards, you'll experience the most realistic power network simulation on the market. The game employs advanced physics-based calculations found in industrial electrical design software and challenges you to make decisions that reflect industry best practices.



Mother Nature can throw unexpected challenges your way, but as a resilient Power Network Tycoon, you're always prepared. Devastating storms, heatwaves, and other extreme weather events will put your skills to the test. Reinforce your infrastructure, strengthen power lines, use the weather forecasting systems to mitigate the impact of these natural disasters. Balancing resilience and cost-effectiveness becomes crucial as you strive to keep the lights on during even the harshest conditions.



As the island community flourishes, your expertise as a Power Network Tycoon will be put to the test. You'll have the opportunity to upgrade and expand your network by building new power generators, power lines, substations and capacitor banks.



Ensuring the safety of the community is paramount. As the Power Network Tycoon, you'll be responsible for preventing electrical accidents and protecting your island's residents. Assess earth potential rise under fault conditions, measure electromagnetic field strengths, and upgrade equipment to minimize the risk of electrical overloading. Failure to prioritize safety could lead to unhappy customers, outages, and even death!

With its immersive gameplay and realistic simulations, Power Network Tycoon allows you to harness your engineering skills, showcase your strategic thinking, and prove yourself as the ultimate Power Network Tycoon, shaping the electricity landscape of a vibrant new island community.
