Open Beta Hotfix 1 is now LIVE! - Not for Problem Reports

Happy Wednesday Victorians!

We originally did not intend to have a hotfix for the Open Beta, but our fix for hiring that went out in yesterday's update did not totally resolve the issue. As such, we don’t want to leave you another week without this issue being resolved so we decided to go ahead with a hotfix! 

Bugfixes

  • Fixed an issue that occurred where buildings would lower their hiring rate despite the fact they can hire employees.
