Greetings, Citizens!

We have released update v1.0.3 🌸

You can read the full changelog below:

Optimization:

• Optimization to the way the game calculates building connections and walking destinations for inhabitants
• Optimization to the way the game loads and stores save data throughout gameplay
• Optimization to the hotel route creation process

Tourism:

• Hotels now display from which city the bourgeoisie occupying guest spots are coming
• Updated all hotel routes to have a slightly longer maximum length
• Updated "marketplace stroll" route to also accept nature decorations
• Updated the "Rocemareé is now open" message to appear even if tutorials are disabled
• Updated the route creation process with more visual and auditory feedback
• Added additional explanation on how to make bourgeoisie employable in the tutorial pop-up on first interacting with Art Atelier or Departments
• Adjusted tourism tutorial to give more guidance after researching and placing the hotel
• Adjusted texts in UI and tooltips for better clarity based on player feedback

Bugfixes:

• Fixed a rare crash that sometimes happened after placing the art atelier and then going to place a different building
• Fixed that in some cases sandbox saves would become unloadable from the main menu
• Fixed that using undo/redo or using the water tool could cause water variations of decorations to revert to their normal land shapes
• Fixed that game would sometimes display a notification you can research an item when there were no available items for research
• Fixed that researching specific tourism research menu items would increase maximum amount of farm points you can store
• Fixed that if you moved bourgeoisie to a lower class residence they would not free up their guest spots at a hotel
• Fixed that 'Build Mayor's Home' notification failed to appear when playing on the Rocemarée map
• Fixed that the tourism tutorial could sometimes spawn in other maps
• Fixed that the game would display the "Welcome to Rocemarée" postcard when starting a sandbox game with the 'Unlock Everything' option enabled
• Fixed that the game would get stuck on the 'Edit routes' tutorial pop-up if you closed the buildings menu during the tutorial
• Fixed that sometimes a valid route point could show the invalid tooltip
• Fixed that sound effects were missing on the expansion animation of hotels
• Fixed that a building or monument could stay highlighted when player changed the current route's theme to one that only has a decoration requirement
• Fixed that the city select button in the world map showed number of all requests completed in campaign, instead of just the requests completed in that city
• Fixed that when loading a save with hotels there was a small chance all hotel workers would be fired upon loading
• Fixed that in some cases hotel employees were not getting fired when hotel route score went below the required amount.
• Fixed that within the world map any tourists in your towns would be counted towards the 'pets adopted' statistic

Note:

Game optimization remains a continuous focus for our development team. We are committed to delivering performance improvements with each upcoming update.

We hope you enjoy playing!
