v4.0 - The Next Generation

This new update adds 6 brand new software types, rebrands the mod, brings a bunch of reworks and tweaks, and more!

New Software and Hardware Types:
  • Game Engine
  • Artificial Intelligence Software
  • Quantum Computer
  • Audio Accessory
  • Drone
  • Trading Platform

Reworks:
  • Computer Peripheral - Renamed "Peripheral System" to "Computer Peripheral", removed Headset (Headphones are now a Audio Accessory category). Improved manufacturing process.
  • Game - Now relies on Game Engine as a dependency for all spec features. Slightly reduced DevTime.
  • Mapping App - Added new feature, added Watch OS as possible OS.
  • Development Environment - Changed name. Now a dependency for System spec on some software types.
  • Office Software - Added new 3 star feature.

Contract Work:
  • Custom Robot: Combined "Custom Robot" and "Robot Program" into one "Custom Robot" contract work.

Tweaks and Small Improvements:
  • Merged some Company Types to reduce overall number of companies and probably improve performance a bit.
  • Improved some name generators.
  • Changed Video spec unlock from 1985 to 1980.
  • A few smaller balancing tweaks and improvements.

Removed Software Types:
  • Security Camera Software, Health Application, PDF Tool and Email Client have been removed from the mod. I feel these software types were not unique enough, and bloated the game more than they added to it.

Please start a new game if you want to use the new update.
