Hey factory workers,
This update is pretty standard stuff: polishing the game, improving the visuals, adding some features requested by you, the players! Business as usual, for a change.
However, we might have a Learning Factory-related surprise for you later this week! Stay tuned, stay alerted! Until then...
v0.26.169 Released!
- New upgrade: Priority Merger is an upgrade for the X-Switcher, and it only lets items from one of the two inputs to pass - unless it's empty, in which case items from another input are allowed (suggested by Lord Neodym)
- Re-rendered Rope Maker
- Re-rendered Dredge
- Animated Furnace

- Updated engine version (comes with slight performance improvement)
- Added contextual error messages for promotional buildings
- Added contextual error messages for Roadside Boutiques
- Upgrade for more spacey Storages now provides even more space
- Decreased Dormitory upgrade costs in the early stages of the game
- Grandma cats now appear a bit later in the game
- Hitting screenshot buttons no longer skips slides in the comics (suggested by S'Kleer)
- New cats are now registered at the Factory as soon as they arrive, and not when they reach the Stores (suggested by S'Kleer)
- Research projects slightly rebalanced
- Trading deals slightly rebalanced
- Added ChatGPT-made translation + community translation for the Estonian language
- Updated fonts for the Arabic, Hebrew and Thai languages
- Added alternate, ChatGPT-made translations for both Chinese languages
- UI/UX fixes
- Bug fixes (kudos to S'Kleer)

A friendly reminder: you can always chat with us directly on our
Discord server. We're using Discord for work, so you'll find many of us there most of the time, don't be a stranger!
An even friendlier reminder: don't forget about our
collection of items in Steam Points Shop! Sergei the artist makes wonderful factory art to be observed from above, but his works' magic really shows at close-up perspective:
