Fatman Update

31 GEN, ORE 16:46 - DOPPELKEKS

Dear players,

with the Fatman update, we bring back an old acquaintance from Pizza Connection 2. A pizza eating maniac who relentlessly feasts on your pizzas, as long as they meet his exquisite taste. In addition, you can now research restaurant managers to automate some tasks. Besides that, we fixed some errors with loading and saving games and we prevented stalling AI behavior. We also made changes to the priority chain when baking pizza, so delivery should work better.

Have fun and great pizza!
