Kingpins - put down the clipboard and pick up your aviators, because the skies just opened for business! In our latest update, you can finally do what every enterprising factory tycoon dreams of: buy a sketchy plane and use it to fly your totally legitimate products far, far away!

- Patch #22: Just One More Patch – (Spoiler: It’s Never Just One) - 24 April 2025
Hello hello, we've got some fixes and qol changes here from a game that isn't taking legal action against anyone! Bug Fixes: Delivery vehicles sometimes driving past an open parking bay and instead circling the block. The Garage UI not updating properly after changes are made to the products delivered by that garage / vehicle. Products stuck on the ground will be despawned after 5 minutes. The time speed was not being taken into account during cleaning tasks, meaning cleaning up a product at x3 speed took the same amount of time as cleaning up a product at x1 speed. If a garage was deleted, the next garage would inherit the previously deleted garage’s sorting color and some other additional settings. Garages’ order (within the garage’s list to the left of the dispatch map) could change after saving and reloading the game. They are now ordered consistently. Removed a parking spot from Se…

- Patch #17: Made with more than 11 QoL's and Fixes! - 14 May 2024
We've got a healthy dose of your favorite fix, ones that you don't need to blag a prescription for! Here's what we've fixed! Workers placing incorrect items within the production line appliances (Such as placing a candy bar on a cannabis dryer). Putting commas are full stops in schedule/ garage names would cause the selected plot to change (This is because , and . are the keybindings to change plots) Tool tips getting stuck on the screen until the mouse was hovered over another tool tip trigger. Characters not animating when changing the view plot or hiring a new employee. The new room indicator getting stuck on screen when trying to build an un-affordable room. Playing incorrect sound effects when obtaining an object to place. If a garage was deleted, a new placed garage would retain the previous garage's name, instead of the default.

- Patch Notes #15 - 14 March 2024
More tweaks for you Tweakers! Following player feedback, the police bribe and raid system have been adjusted to be a little more gentle before shaking you down! Changes: Bribes are now every four days, instead of every two days. When you 'accept' the attack instead of the bribe, they are not as severe. Police will now ask for a maximum of 30% of your drug-related income every four days. Instead of the bribe being able to scale infinitely (Until you accept an attack). -Note, this is not a constant embellishment, but a payment of your drug-based income every four days. This will allow you to not go bankrupt, but also offer a means of defending yourself. Optimizations: Further optimization to large businesses with lots of products, appliances and employees Disabling overlay UIs (such as quality) will now yield higher fps Bug Fixes: A fix to employees getting stuck in an eating/cooking loop…

- Patch Notes #13: POLICE RAIDS - 20 December 2023
Woop-woop! That's the sound of the police! Because they're here. In Definitely Not Fried Chicken. To cause you mayhem! Police Raids & Bribery The Police have been added to the game. Once you are now making a little drug money, the Police Chief will come for his cut of the profits. If you do not pay him, the Police will raid your factory. However, each time you pay, the Chief will get a little greedier and ask for a higher proportion of your drug profits! If you reject his bribe (and take the raid) he will once again start asking for a smaller proportion of your drug profits. The more drug money you’re making, the more severe the raid will be, so be sure to get your traps down and your guards suited and booted! Christmas Decorations In December and January, you will be able to place some Christmas decorations (which can be found in the Landscaping build menu): Wreath Christmas Tree Wrapp…
- Patch Notes #12 - 7 December 2023
We've got fixes for the fixers! We've got some dope fixes for you addressing issues with the cleaners, room groups and patrols! Check them out here: Fixes: Characters believing they are stuck when they aren’t at the West Street business location. This was seen when building over the entire plot. Additionally, characters not leaving the West Street business location when there is a viable exit for them. Keybindings menu now works in the main gameplay scene (previously only worked on the main menu). Improved cleaner AI. Cleaners should now clean only within their assigned room groups (as well as outside). They should also clean their room group rooms more evenly instead of only cleaning in a localized area. Cleaners no longer get stuck in a loop of cleaning in a specific area if the dirty patch is inaccessible to them. They will now simply ignore inaccessible dirty areas. Employees will n…
- Patch Notes #11: Patrolling and catchin' you riding dirty - 23 November 2023
They see you rollin' (fat blunts). Hello, law-abiding CEOs this patch brings you the ability for your guards to patrol! This feature has been added ahead of the upcoming raid update that will be coming soon! We wanted to give CEOs a chance to set up patrols ahead of this update, in a timely manner before the scourge of the city starts trying to tear down your good, honest work. New Feature: Patrols have been introduced for guards! You can create patrol routes, either back and forth or in a loop layout then assign guards to patrol on them during work hours. During an attack or emergency, a guard may leave their patrol route to react to these situations. Patrols can be created by selecting a new button within the Employees configuration panel (to the right of the Rooms button), then following the on-screen instructions: Patrols can be assigned to guards by expanding the guard’s configurat…
