Big Ambitions EA 0.6: Assemble the Line
Hi there!
The latest update for Big Ambitions is here! The team has been working tirelessly to bring you a bunch of new features and improvements to enhance your gameplay experience. We appreciate your patience through this longer-than-normal update! Dive in and start exploring the new improvements today!
Factories It is time to take your business to the next level. We’ve added factories that let you produce most of the products available from the wholesale importers. From simple hotdogs to flashy jewelry to high-tech smartwatches.
New Pier Area Your new factories need raw materials, so we added a whole new pier area! Here you can import the materials needed to get your factory production up and running.
The beautiful pier houses three new purchasing sites:
Lunar Tide Shipments at Pier 6 for food
Maritime Freight Line at Pier 7 for consumer goods
Aquatic Bay Cargo at Pier 8 for drinks
Or just take a stroll around the pier and enjoy the views!
Interior Design Get ready for a complete overhaul of our Interior Designer feature! We listened to your feedback and have streamlined the design process with an intuitive "mode" switch and a handy toolbar.
Finding the right tools are now easier than ever—right at your fingertips. Dive into a smoother, more enjoyable designing experience in our latest update!
From being able to easily copy and paste designs on all your furniture, to filling in an entire wall or floor with one click by holding “shift”, the entire process is much easier now!
Moving Service Outgrown your current space? No problem! Say goodbye to manually packing and moving items with hand trucks. The moving company fully automates the process, making your transition to a larger or different building seamless and hassle-free.
What are you waiting for? Come on down to Manhattan Movers!
Indoor Delivery Spots When you enter your apartment or business, you will now see that it has undergone renovation. All rentable spaces now have a designated delivery spot for you to receive any kind of wares directly into your home or business.
Overlay and UI Improvements We've streamlined our overlays and popups for a cleaner, less intrusive experience. Now, only the most essential information is displayed, including employee names right at their desks for easier management.
Plus, we've resolved the issues with popups triggered by keyboard commands or player proximity, ensuring a more cohesive and consistent UI as our game grows in complexity. Enjoy a more intuitive experience with these quality-of-life upgrades!
Visual Improvements We have been working on improving the visuals and performance of the game. This has resulted in some spectacular lighting improvements. Here is a highlight of the most noticeable changes:
Improved "time of the day" feeling with a rotating sun.
Moonlight shadows
Improved exterior and interior lighting
Each district has a different atmosphere with their own effects such as fog
Added more trash and dirt to the streets
Task Management Overhaul Previously, changing an employee's status or settings could erase their associated tasks and information. Now, we've tied tasks to the HQ, not individuals. Whether an employee leaves or changes roles, no data is lost—tasks automatically reassign or stay pending. Plus, you can now easily transfer task information when relocating, ensuring seamless operations.
