Fast-forward: run time in fast-forward from the Organizer up to the next month or the next important event. The simulation keeps running at speed — development, deadlines and events all still happen, nothing is skipped — and it stops the moment something needs your attention.
Improvements
Employee training is significantly faster.
Own products are now worth building and simulate real market behaviour — sales scale with your company, and updates boost them.
Freelancers are now worth it as a short-term stand-in or extra pair of hands, without the oversized price tag.
Higher payouts for maintenance contracts.
Fairer early economy: more starting capital, a cheaper first hire, and a milder reputation hit when a project fails.
Promotions now noticeably speed up an employee's work.
The settings now explain what events and coding events do.
Bug Fixes
Maintenance contracts no longer penalise you for "no work done" in a month where nothing was actually due.
