Hey everyone! This is a quick post to let you guys know that a new build is available on the 'develop' branch. The new features found in this build is the ability to adjust the amount of mass advertisement rounds (repetitions of the entire campaign), and the addition of a button which inherits the settings of the related game that you've picked. As always please keep in mind that content on the 'develop' branch is not guaranteed to be stable, so if you run into any bugs or crashes please report them here!
