NewCity March 4, 2021 Update - v0.0.58.5 Patch Notes

Welcome to March, Mayors!

Take a look at our recent beta branch update for some new tourism features. Building capacities have been rebalanced. And of course, bug fixes!

These are the patch notes:

Version 0.0.58.5 ALPHA

• Features

• Added ability for amenities to provide positive cash flow.

• Added two positive cash flow amenities: the Casino and the Toxic Waste Plant.

• Added floor, industrial, pillar, park, residential, sign, and structure decorations; including decor specific to the Casino, Toxic Waste Plant, Zoo, and Museum.

• Added a new cost widget in the Building Designer configuration panel.

  Improvements

• Major balancing was done for designs across the board, which will have a significant impact on gameplay. Be prepared to start a new save.

  Performance Improvements

• Made changes to the compiler flags used for Windows-based builds, which may marginally improve performance.

  Changes

• Changed the budget line item for police income to amenity income.

• Changed Test Mode/Building Designer to prevent city growth.

  Bugfixes

• Fixed the autosave infinite loop bug.

• Fixed an issue that caused amenity maintenance costs to be four times higher than they should have been.
