📢 Dear Executives!

We hope you’ve been enjoying the new features we rolled out over the weekend.

Some of you reported a bug affecting film revenue calculations, introduced in the latest patch. This is a minor update, focused on addressing that issue as quickly as possible.

• Movie Financials Bug: When playing with an uncapped framerate and a fast computer, film financials could behave incorrectly if the framerate was too high. While we couldn’t precisely pinpoint the root cause, the issue appears to stem from the in-game time management system, which struggles with certain calculations when frame durations are too short. As a quick fix, we’ve decided to remove the uncapped FPS option.

Our sincere apologies if you were impacted by this bug!

📢 Dear Executives!

Thank you for your ongoing support, feedback, and brilliant suggestions. Patch 1.3.0 brings three of the most requested features from our Discord community — plus a round of key fixes and improvements.

• 🔍 Insights MetasaveYour discovered insights are now saved in a metasave. When starting a new game, you can choose whether to carry over knowledge unlocked from previous playthroughs — or go in blind.

• 💰Sell Your IPsNeed a cash injection? You can now sell intellectual properties you’ve created or acquired, opening up fresh strategies for making money.

• 🥇 Box Office RankingsTo boost immersion and the competitive spirit, we’ve added a new screen where you can compare your movie’s box office against others released the same month.
  ➡ Note: This feature is partially backwards compatible. Older movies will show a regenerated competitor list since we weren’t previously saving that data. Rankings for these films may not reflect their original competitive landscape.

• Premium Feature Score: The bonus was correctly affecting box office numbers, but the letter grade in the performance screen was stuck on ‘C’. It now properly reflects your actual performance.

• Framerate Time Bug: On uncapped framerates, time could behave erratically or even freeze. This has been fixed — time now ticks forward as it should.

• Box Office Spoiler Fix: Previously, you could see final box office numbers too early via the My Movies section. That loophole is now closed.

• Localization & UI: Minor localization updates and UI tweaks for a smoother experience.

To our incredible modding community:
Thank you for the real logos, real talent names, real IPs, real posters (yes, even all 7,000 of them), new themes, genres, balancing tweaks, and more.🥳

You're absolute legends👏 We can't wait to see what you build next!

🎥 See you on the red carpet!
