CapLab version 1.932 patch is now available

[David]

CapLab version 1.932 patch is now available. We have changed quite a bit of the code this time, so we are releasing it as a manual patch initially. Here is the direct download link:

(Saved games of the previous versions are not compatible with this new version.)

If it works well, we will release it as an auto patch subsequently.

New Features / Bug Fixes / Changes

Fixed the challenge game display bug

Fixed the help text typo.

Fixed the customer traffic index error on natural resource site.

Fixed the crash bug of j_pur2.cpp line 153.

Fixed this bug:
-When in R&D and selecting a new technology to research: if another store, etc. is underneath the OK button(on the map) and you click on the OK button, it'll switch to that building instead of selecting OK.

Improved Realism for Corporate Brand Strategy

Attempted to fix the Save Game Freeze problem.

Attempted to fix the problem of sometimes not being able to upload game scores to the server.

The news for Fire random events will show the exact retail store type.

Advertising budget limit will increase with inflation.

Added a button for enabling automatically adjusting advertising spendings based on the inflation. See this page for details:

Fixed a bug with the music.

Implemented: ALT + Arrow Keys - Scroll the city map

Fixed this bug:
I found a bug with the "New price" auto-updating in the product details list.
Although the price auto-updates when you scroll from product to product, or from city to city, it does not auto-update when you scroll from shop to shop (within the same product and in the same city)

Can savegames of the 1.930 version be used after applying this patch ?

Wouldnt want to start a bugreport of a known fact :p

So far so good.
No problems with the patching process and both scores for the challenge have been uploaded to the server (An extended recession is really hampering my efforts though!)

There is still a bug with the background music.

Hi David

Im impresed by some of the subtle changes you mustve done
Ive never seen the AI sell their products in more than one shop before. Its making me keep my margins down!
Its not happening all the time though and I think would be to the AI's benefit to do this more often

The dev team also didn't tell me about this change. I guess the change may be just too subtle for them to explain it to me.

Can you provide more info about the bug?
