Hypermarket Simulator – v00.02.039.005

Performance

  • Improved performance in stores with very large numbers of products.

  • Optimized staff and customer systems to reduce lag.

Warehouse

  • Added the new Warehouse area and a New Warehouse Rack.

  • Added 6 unlockable Warehouse expansions.

  • Updated the visuals of expansion cards on the computer.

  • Fixed an issue where players could not properly pass through the Warehouse entrance.

Staff Improvements

  • Staff are now smarter when restocking shelves.

  • Staff will prioritize shelves with the most available space.

  • Improved decision-making when restocking from the floor or from storage.

  • Reduced situations where staff could become stuck.

  • When stocking with loose products, fresher items are now prioritized first.

  • Increased maximum staff capacity from 31 (24 permanent + 7 daily) to 36 (26 permanent + 10 daily).

Storage & Shelves

  • Added 4 new shelf types. (Inner and Outer Corner Racks)

  • Storage racks now correctly keep their frosty cooling-area appearance after briefly turning red while being moved near obstacles.

  • Display items can now be placed on the floor correctly.

Placement & Building

  • Increased the buildable area in front of the store by approximately 30%.

  • Objects that cannot be placed no longer get stuck in place; they now continue moving while showing the red invalid-placement state.

  • Fixed various placement restriction issues and incorrect placement warnings.

Clothing & Product Fixes

  • Fixed a rail-clothing edge case where quickly picking up an item during the placement animation could leave an unfolded clothing object stuck inside a box.

  • Attempted a fix for the POS terminal issue where product prices could occasionally fail to display.

Localization & UI

  • Fixed several untranslated texts found on expansion cards.

What's Next?

We're already working on the next update, which will introduce truck deliveries, pallets, and a brand-new stock cart to make warehouse and stock management even more immersive.
