This version fixes a lot of bugs and introduces an all-new GUI level editor to create and edit .level files, thereby making it much easier to create both parts of new custom levels. Happy building!
- Added: The ability to control alien behaviour (sitting, knocking doors, only to be available through emergency or arrive like all other patients.)
- Added: The ability to have more than one nurse in the ward. Just add more desks, and you can have as many nurses you want. The patients get cured a little bit faster when there are more nurses present, but don't forget about the wage bill!
- Added: Winning fax opens automatically and pauses the game.
- Added: The Adviser offers a little more help than before and a few errors in what he tells you have been fixed.
- Added: Option to automatically accept wage increase requests when they "time out".
- Added: A new option allows for your average build content for each type of room to be remembered, so will be added for each new room built later.
- Change: Patients would previously queue outside toilets even though there were free loos since it was dependant on number of people in the room. Now, as soon as a loo becomes free another patient enters the room to use it (even if there is a long queue for the sink). If there is a queue for the sinks there is a chance the patient will leave without washing their hands - but will not be happy about doing this.
- Change: The vomiting of patients has been tweaked. More handymen are now needed to clean all the vomit.
- Fix: A problem where patients sometimes wouldn't die, and stayed in the room for ever.
- Fix: It was impossible to replace a surgeon when a patient was in the room and a similar bug for the research room.
- Fix: Researching improvements was not really possible on some custom levels i.e. if the map creator had made it so there were no machines at the start.
- Fix: A problem where the advisor would say that you don't have enough money to make a purchase when you press the minus button on an "item buy screen" without having added any items before.
- Fix: Dropping doctors to the GP could make their icons stay unchanged for the entire game.
- Fix: A bug from the original game meant that in level 8 it was possible to win even if the reputation win criteria was not met and marked with red.
-
Added: Confirm dialog to the quit/exit button on the main menu.
-
Change: Config options for several things are now in a customise menu. There are switches to add aliens, females with broken bones, building rooms with average contents (all new in version 0.30) and much more.
-
Change: Zoom and edge scroll speeds are increased by a factor of two. Zoom and edge scroll speed are also now configurable through the config file.
-
Change: Smoother zooming.
-
Change: Resolution restrictions are removed. You can now enter any resolution you want to so long as your computer can run it. Now there is only a warning shown if a resolution is above 3000x2000.
-
Change: Custom maps button is now a lot wider and the tooltip tells you which map you are using and the briefing.
-
Fix: Button misplacement on the New game menu.
-
Fix: Scrolling momentum did not work.
-
Removed: The settings menu from within the game.
- Fix: When winning the demo level CorsixTH looked for another level to load, showing the wrong fax options and eventually crashing.
- Fix: The shortcut enter was not working anymore.
- Some hotkeys are changed and added:
- Press Alt + A = Toggle Announcements
- Press Alt + M = Toggle Music
- Press Alt + S = Toggle Sound Effects
- Shift and + to zoom in five steps and Shift and - to zoom out five steps at a time.
- Added: Undo/Redo support.
- Added: Resizeble ribbon menu.
- Fix: Potential crash when exiting Map Editor.
- Added: Korean language.
- Fix: An error with dumping strings when the language name contains unicode characters.
- Fix: The Src directory was not removed on uninstall.
