Main menu
  • Goodwill shop - a new Shop tab in the top bar. Unlock titles with your goodwill, wear what you own, see which keepsakes you can still earn and where your goodwill came from. It is built so that later items get their own card

Interface
  • Wiki in game - H, window Help buttons and Advisor links open the English Wiki inside the game, with the relevant article and a Back to map button

  • Practical guides - new English articles cover property and renting, cities and licences, trading, logistics, finance, auctions and shares, the shared world, controls and a glossary

  • Mentoring tab - Company has a Mentoring tab now. It explains the three steps for newcomers and for mentors, shows what each step pays and how far along you are, and has a Profile button next to every company

  • Drafts - a message you start but do not send waits under Drafts until you send or discard it, also after you close the game

  • Select several - tick entries in your Inbox to mark them read or unread, delete messages, restore them or decline several offers at once

  • Forward - send a message on to someone else, and mark one unread to find it again

  • Deleted folder - a deleted message waits there until you restore it, delete it for good or it expires. Mail between players expires 30 days after it was written

  • Stars - star a message to keep it in sight. The Starred folder lists them, and Clear read leaves them alone

  • Recipients - the To field suggests your contacts and the players you wrote with before

  • Inbox keys - the up and down arrows move through the list, Delete moves the open message to Deleted

  • Message formatting - messages can have bold and green, red or gold text and tables, for a shareholder report or a price list. The Write window has buttons for them and a Preview that shows the message the way the reader will see it

Logistics
  • Transit groups - gather everything on the way by destination, goods or route, one line each with its loads, amount, freight and next arrival. Click a line to open it. Long lists start grouped by destination

  • Transit filters - the Filters button narrows Transit by type, goods or carrier and can list held deliveries on their own. The type buttons replace Deliveries

  • Carrier and freight - every load in Transit shows who carries it, truck, rail, ship, air or your own vehicle, and what its freight cost

Improved

15 changes
Interface
  • Advisor hints - no longer vanish while the chat is open

  • Community contract - it is the first row of the Contracts list now, with distance, stock and pay per unit like every other contract. Send goods opens the send window with it already set

  • World events - they show as a band above the Contracts list while one is running or announced, with the time left and the goodwill it pays

  • Contracts list - Running, Offers and Settled are sections now, building projects start folded, and the filters split state from kind (One off, Series, Project, Sourcing) and add Goods in stock

  • Open books - the switch moved to the Identity card on the Company overview

  • Inbox - laid out like a mailbox now: folders on the left, the list in the middle, the open offer or message on the right. Offers, deals and messages share one list, and an open offer shows what you pay or receive, what it is worth and how long it stands before you answer

  • Inbox search - finds words inside your messages, not only the subject and the sender

  • Read messages - what you have read now belongs to your account, so a second computer shows the same

  • Freight terms on offers - an offer for goods now says who collects or delivers. When you collect, it says the goods stay where they are and what bringing them to your depot would cost, instead of only the freight to your depot

  • Write field - a long line wraps at the width of the field instead of running out of the window to the right

Logistics
  • Route button in Transit - deliveries sent by a route now have it too, not only tour legs

Chat
  • Chat window - opens every time you enter the world. Until you move it, it sits at the bottom right, clear of your alerts

Economy
  • Mentor requests - a request nobody answers runs out after three days and you are told, so you can ask someone else instead of waiting

  • Mentor list - a mentor who has not played for a week drops out of it until they are back, so a request does not land on someone who is away

Performance
  • Main menu - fetches only the totals of your properties, not the whole list. With many properties your company shows up there much faster

Fixed

5 changes
Main menu
  • Company page - showed no properties and no debt while your company was still loading. It shows -- until the numbers are in

Interface
  • Company overview and Bank - showed your cash with no property and No loans while your company was still loading. They say Loading now

  • Wiki links - moving onto a link and clicking it no longer sends the first press to the browser's previous mouse position

  • Wiki navigation - opening an article no longer lets a UI refresh send the browser back to the previous page

  • Write field - a click below a line with a double dash or letters like fi and ff put the cursor on the wrong line. The field uses a plainer font now

Removed

Interface
  • Standing tab - Company no longer has it. The community contract and world events are in Contracts, mentoring has its own tab, titles, collection and goodwill history are in the new Shop, and open books is in the Identity card

  • Inbox sorting - the list is ordered by what needs you first and then newest first, so the column headers you could sort by are gone
