Update #42 Gas improvements
After lots of hotfixes following the launch of The Heat Is On, everything’s almost oilright now. We’re still working on some trickier issues, but we’ve also found time to improve the game in other areas than just fixing bugs. The most important one changes the way in which gas is received by Left and Right Inc. Oil prices will from now on react more directly to delivered gas, and it will now also make a difference if you upgrade the pipes that transport gas to Left and Right. We’ve also increased the arrival speed of wagons (which also caused some frustration sometimes). But the best solution to spillage is still to buy enough wagons and upgrade them! For Mac users it’s important to know that we’ve disabled the end-of-game screenshots, as that seemed to be the cause of the crashes that many players were experiencing. Note that this does not affect the flashing oil/gas wells bug.

Dear oil entrepreneurs,
After lots of hotfixes following the launch of The Heat Is On, everything’s almost oilright now. We’re still working on some trickier issues, but we’ve also found time to improve the game in other areas than just fixing bugs. The most important one changes the way in which gas is received by Left and Right Inc. Oil prices will from now on react more directly to delivered gas, and it will now also make a difference if you upgrade the pipes that transport gas to Left and Right. We’ve also increased the arrival speed of wagons (which also caused some frustration sometimes). But the best solution to spillage is still to buy enough wagons and upgrade them!

Note that this does not affect the flashing oil/gas wells bug.
Changelog for version 2.0.8
Balance
- Gas grown using magma heat will now fill up the existing well before increasing
- the size of the containing well.
- Removed limit on amount of gas sold per second. Connecting multiple pipes to Left or Right Inc. will now make the price go up faster.
- Decreased gas boosting efficiency every $0.50 step from $2.50 and up.
- Increased gas boosting price drop rate at every $1 step from $4 and up. This drop rate only applies when you are no longer boosting. The higher you boost, the quicker it will fall again giving you less time to sell.
- Increased speed of oil conversion
- Decreased heat cost of oil conversion
- Increased brake speed of wagons for all upgrade levels, causing them to arrive at their goal more quickly.
- Decreased decision making interval of wagons from 1.13 seconds to 0.93 seconds, making them respond to full silos and overflowing rigs more quickly.
- Disabled end of game screenshots for Mac OSX as it was causing segmentation and bus errors for a lot of Mac players. Fixed that the game could crash by clicking one of the buildings during a new area introduction.
- Fixed that the start button on the weekly poster would flicker endlessly in some cases of losing your internet connection.
- Fixed that some of the hotkeys would not work during the tutorial.
- Fixed that bank debt did not get saved in the campaign.
- Fixed that the text on the play button would wrap in some languages.
- Fixed that you could not get any land lease payback on a piece of land when loading a campaign with a finished land auction.
