Patch v0.9.006a - This update features the following changes:

  • Added two new graphs to the power study tool. A graph of the power generation vs power demand and a graph of the percentage of power coming from renewables
  • Community Satisfaction now has colors to match some of the background code works, encouraging the behaviour to progress the game. <50% is red which greatly affects city growth rate. >= 99% is green which greatly increases city growth rate
  • Modifications to how window lighting works to improve performance. Added an intermediate lights changing (eg start or ending night) visual of building-at-a-time instead of building window-at-a-time switching, meaning less steps to transition lights. Ultra graphics setting is the only level now showing window-at-a-time switching
  • Default FPS is now 60 rather than Unlimited to reduce producing more frames than needed (eg excess computer heat, particularly in menus)
