Hello! This update adds sub-genres and annual game awards, some nice CPU optimization, support for Ubuntu 18.04, and a couple of quality-of-life improvements. - the game now supports Ubuntu 18.04 - added sub-genres: * these become available when you have at least 6 genres researched * they match together with genres, and can either hurt or improve the game sales; discovery of subgenre matches is the same as it is with other match types in reviews * selecting a sub-genre will add 15% more work to the project - added annual game awards: * like the name suggests, this event occurs once per year * the player can choose to skip this event * if the player chooses to participate, they will need to select the game to nominate released in the year that the awards take place * the player will also need to write a celebratory speech in case they win the Game of the Year award * the winner can earn reputation - optimizations: * optimized the tilegrid visibility handler * further optimization and parallelization of the lighting compute * when coupled together these two optimizations bring a performance increase of up to 50% (your mileage may vary) in CPU-bottlenecked scenarios - added buttons for instantly accepting and refusing all job candidates - added target team selection for job candidates - review ratings now also show 1/10th of the score - added an option to disable the fly-in animation of popups - when selecting a related game in the new game menu features that were present in the related game will be marked with a different color - the date display remains visible in the upper left corner of the screen in any menu you open up, for quick reference of the current time - fixed a bug that allowed you to quit the construction menu during tutorials which would then mess up various game functionality if you proceeded to load a savefile - fixed an issue related to the selection bounding box of objects - platform popularity boost popup will now be shown only once per playthrough, rather than once per every platform - (MODDING) fixed a crash that occured when removing a downward or left-facing wall in the prefab editor As usual, if you find any bugs or crashes, make sure to report them in the Bug & Crash Reports thread. Thanks for reading!
