Hello everyone,
A new Family Office Simulator update is now live. This update focuses heavily on long-running saves, succession continuity, financial progression, and safer save migration.
Key changes include:
• Older completed successions are now recognized correctly and remain stable across saving and reloading.
• Succession completion and Permanent Dynasty qualification are now treated separately. A completed succession will no longer incorrectly grant—or incorrectly serve as—Dynasty, Founder’s Charter, Board, or institutional-governance qualification.
• Net worth now consistently uses debt-adjusted values across the Dashboard, Balance Sheet, banking progression, legacy progression, and year-end calculations.
• Mortgage balances and outstanding lines of credit are properly deducted before Premier Banking, Single Family Office, and related progression checks occur.
• Historical Premier Banking or SFO messages created by older calculations may remain in a player’s history, but they will no longer incorrectly qualify the current game state.
• Cash and savings balances now preserve cents during legacy-save migration.
• Save loading is now transactional. A save must validate and migrate successfully before it can replace the active game state, providing stronger protection against malformed or incomplete saves.
• Additional safeguards were added to prevent duplicated succession letters, Chronicle entries, ceremonies, estate effects, unlocks, and reputation changes.
This update was tested against the actual saves provided by players who reported the succession and net-worth issues. Thank you to everyone who submitted saves, screenshots, and detailed reports. Those files made it possible to reproduce and correct the underlying problems without guessing.
As always, please continue reporting anything that does not behave as expected.
