This update focuses on quality-of-life improvements, better visual feedback for shipping routes, and fine-tuning ship controls and upgrade costs.
Gameplay
Ship Rotation: All ships now rotate faster. This effect is more pronounced on smaller vessels and less noticeable on larger ones.
Upgrade Costs Reduced: The prices for most ship upgrades have been reduced, ranging from 10% to 50%, making progression smoother and upgrades more accessible.
Route Drawing: Drawing straight lines by holding the Shift key has been improved for greater accuracy.
Visuals
Incoming Routes: Shipping routes for newly introduced ships are now drawn into the game progressively instead of abruptly appearing.
Route Length: Routes are now slightly shorter when a new ship is added to the game area.
Route Extension Arrow: The arrow used when extending existing routes has been improved. It now maintains the same size as the route line and is less intrusive on the screen.
Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where ships could drift off-screen if their route ended near the edge of the game area.
Significantly reduced the likelihood of ships crashing into each other when entering the game area on the same shipping lane.
The "Color Swap" upgrade can no longer be applied to ships that already have the "Prismatic Containers" upgrade.
Fixed a bug that caused ships to briefly move in the wrong direction immediately after loading a saved game.
Achievements
Three new progressive achievements have been added for players delivering cumulative amounts of containers to any harbor.
