Hello Car Dealers!


Today's update introduces a number of changes related to employees!

New Warehouse Employee Position


We've added a brand-new employee position to take some tasks off the receptionist's hands, including:

  • collecting packages from online stores
  • refilling and emptying the repair machine

Receptionist


The receptionist has received several new abilities:

  • They can now pay bills and the salaries of other employees.
  • They can sell Valuables from the warehouse.
    • Sales take place once every hour and include all items from the Common, Uncommon, and Rare tiers. The item-selling option is disabled by default to prevent the receptionist from selling items needed for Pawn Shop jobs. Be careful when using this option - make sure to move any items you want to keep to your personal inventory before enabling it.

  • The passive vehicle sales bonus remains unchanged.

Body Workshop Employees

  • We've added an option for replacing license plates.
    To allow an employee to replace old license plates with new ones, you need to keep a supply of new plates in the warehouse.

Additionally

  • We've added 4 new employees to the pool of available employees for hire.

Up 2 You DLC


If you own the Up 2 You DLC, you can now equip your employees with new headwear in the employee app, in the uniform customization section.

  • We've added 11 new variants.

Optimization

  • We found and fixed two memory leaks, which should improve performance and overall game stability, including on Steam Deck. Further optimization work is still ongoing.

Up 2 You DLC

  • Fixed an issue related to the start of the race at Winston Springs Junkyard.



We've created a new thread where you can share your feedback, thoughts, and ideas for future updates with us:
