You can now give money to the beggar outside your restaurant. And if business goes really badly... you can even hit the streets and beg for some cash yourself.
You can now leave a tip for the street musician.
Added a complete French Fries tutorial for new players. Once fries are added to your menu, the game will guide you through the entire process: getting the potato sack and serving containers, cutting and storing the potatoes, filling and starting the fryer, and finally serving the cooked fries.
Added four more tutorials:
Serving Trays when a staff member is assigned as a Waiter.
Breading when Onion Rings are added to the menu.
Calling Extra Customers by Phone after completing the Calendar tutorial.
Wine Service when wine is unlocked, including stocking bottles and pouring glasses.
Added a Claim All button to the Quests screen. All completed quest rewards can now be collected one after another with a single click.
Quest rewards now play a sound when claimed.
Customers waiting at the register while all tables are occupied will now speak and let you know they're waiting for a table.
Staff members were asking for raises and talking far too frequently. Their dialogue now triggers much less often.
The placement preview no longer appears while holding a fryer basket.
Quest reward popups now progress automatically instead of waiting for another button press.
When claiming multiple rewards in a row, the reward screen now stays open and smoothly switches between rewards instead of repeatedly closing and reopening.
The Recent Quests list now keeps a stable order, with unclaimed rewards shown at the top.
Darkened the tutorial panel background to improve text readability.
Improved overall game performance and optimization in several areas.
Improved performance while Porters are stocking ingredients, reducing stutters during restocking.
Trash bags used by cleaning staff now cost $2 per bag instead of being free.
Fixed quest entries in the End of Day Report always using the same background. They now use their correct category backgrounds.
Fixed the wrong icon appearing next to money rewards.
Fixed an issue where serving trays could sometimes not be marked as Ready to Serve if the receipt was slightly out of position.
Fixed cups placed at the back of the fryer cup shelf becoming unreachable. Cups are now stocked from the accessible side and automatically move forward as others are taken.
Machines that cannot currently be repaired will now explain why instead of silently rejecting the interaction.
Fixed incorrect action descriptions appearing in the bottom-right control list while looking at the fryer.
Fixed the star column on the leaderboard displaying the player's own star count instead of the reward earned for that ranking.
Fixed several leaderboard texts overflowing their UI boxes in languages with longer translations.
Fixed a brief freeze when claiming quest rewards.
Fixed the fourth reward popup sometimes failing to appear when claiming more than three quest rewards consecutively.
Fixed empty entries occasionally appearing in the Recent Quests list.
Czech is now correctly available in the in-game language selection.
Fixed the Cutting Station and Cheese Grater images being swapped in the PC upgrade menu.
Fixed tutorial reward text overlapping the objective list.
Fixed the breading tray shelf sometimes disappearing from kitchens on certain saves, preventing Onion Rings from being prepared. Missing kitchen equipment will now be restored the next time the save is loaded.
Fixed pizza size labels such as Small / Medium / Large overflowing their UI box in some languages.
Fixed serving trays marked as Ready to Serve not turning green immediately for other players.
Fixed an issue where Onion Rings coated with flour in the Breading Tray could appear already cooked for other players.
Thanks for all the reports and feedback. We're continuing to work through the issues you've been sending us and improving the game with every patch. 🍕
