Leaderboard called "100 days performance score". Score depend on items sold and its difficulty in the last 100 days. The more items sold and the more they are difficult the more score you will get. Detailed in game report will be added soon about this score performance. Note: 100 days performance is not saved,every time you load a saved game the score will reset and will be calculated starting form the loaded game state. this mean to get the max score you need to run your current game for 100 days.leaderboaard score will be updated only if you get higher score than the previuosly uploaded one.

After listening to players suggustions,i decided to change the research system With older research system,players found it very time consuming and difficult to maintain steady flow of research points, because they need to change thier production lines a lot, and they have to wait for hours to collect research points. New research system will be as follows - Items will have a fixed research value during the game "no more research points decay" - Item research value will directky depend on item complexity,more complex means more reward. The older research system could be added later as a seperate mode for the players who like to grind and spend time collecting hard earned research points. This update is compatible with older saved game,you dont have to start new game to try it. Thanks for everyone who gives a feedbak to make the game more fun :)

Research system update Now every item has a minimum research value,instead of 1. this upadte will make collecting research points a lot more easier
