- Cruise Ship Manager patch - fix for the missing crew bug connected to elevators - 28 June 2023
Ahoy, shipowners! A bit of time has passed since the last patch. With the last few patches we have fixed most of the issues as reported by our community - thank you all for your help! However, we had some outstanding bugs - some very pesky and returning even with previous fixes in place - which needed to be sorted out. Today we are providing solutions for them. Cruise Ship Manager patch - fixes for crew member issues The outstanding major issue resolved by this patch is the cases of missing crew members you have reported to us often. It seemed to be connected to elevators, as their removal has been fixing the issue for the players. We had spent a long time trying to reproduce this issue - it was very hard to recreate in testing envinroment. Needless to say, after much testing we managed to locate the issue and find a solution. We are introducing it to the game in today's update. The sec…
- Cruise Ship Manager patch - fixes for crew member issues - 9 June 2023
Ahoy, shipowners! Another update for Cruise Ship Manager has arrived at the port. In this update, once again working with the help of your priceless feedback, we have removed several bugs related to the crew that you have reported. Cruise Ship Manager patch - fixes for crew member issues The other much-requested change is the ability to skip the cruise statistics calculations which were loading slowly at the end of every cruise.

- Cruise Ship Manager patch - fixes for known issues and anti-freeze solution - 1 June 2023
Hi shipowners, Recently we have seen many reports of sudden freezing of the game. We are of course working to locate every possible reason for this issue showing up - although this type of problem is often tricky to replicate. During our investigation of freezes, we have found a solution that should help you in many cases. Cruise Ship Manager update - fixes for known issues and anti-freeze solution We have determined that the most likely source of freezes is an autosaving function, as it is very resource-consuming. That's why we enabled toggling autosave on and off in this hotfix. If you experience freezes, it's advised to turn autosave off. In many cases, it should be enough to solve the issue. You can access toggle autosave during gameplay by pausing the game, clicking on the Options button, and then on General Settings. If you still experience freezes, feel free to contact us by usua…
- Cruise Ship Manager update - fuel calculation issues fix - 29 May 2023
Hi shipowners, The topic of fuel was hotly debated over the weekend, but we have pinned down the reason for excess fuel usage during cruises, even on the same route and with the same ship configuration. Thank you all for your calculations and reporting, you helped us immensely with creating today's patch. Cruise Ship Manager update - fuel calculation issues fix As we talk fuel, we have also introduced a real-time length of the cruise display in the cruise panel, so you can easily calculate the fuel consumption ratio. We are wondering which solutions are the best, so please feel free to share feedback. We have also modified crew behavior to address their seemingly idle behavior. Now your crew members will react to urgent situations faster than ever. The hotfix introduces the following changes: Adjustments and fixes to fuel usage to eliminate hidden fuel consumption issue Cruise info pane…
- Cruise Ship Manager update - quality-of-life fixes and translations revisions - 26 May 2023
Ahoy, shipowners! Cruise Ship Manager gears up for the weekend with the new update. Thanks to your feedback, we could locate some additional issues, as well as propose quality-of-life fixes to make your experience with the game consistent and clear. Cruise Ship Manager update - quality-of-life fixes and translations revisions Additionally, we have located a translation issue that was present in some tutorials regarding shipbuilding and room placement. Suggestions that all rooms must be linked and that you should place corridors between them are leftovers from the demo. In the full game, corridors exist behind all rooms and link them automatically. You can leave open spaces between rooms and it will cause no issues and will allow you to sail out without any problems. The only things that should be connected are all decks on the ship - This allows for vertical movement of passengers and c…
- Cruise Ship Manager update - changes to automated cleaning/fixing availability - 25 May 2023
Ahoy, shipowners! Cruise Ship Manager is up and running, and we are taking note of every piece of feedback you provide - thank you for sharing your opinions! The most prevalent suggestion of changes from you is in the fixing/cleaning element of the game. We hear your opinions and we have decided to introduce a major change to mitigate some of the micromanagement that may come with assigning crew to fixing/cleaning tasks. That's why we decided to make an automated patroling option available right from the start of the game. The Storage room will also be possible to buy at any port. As a reminder, the Storage room allows you to assign a crewman to the role of Janitor and then set a patrol route of 10 rooms for single Storage room. Setting the patrol route is very simple - just enter the Storage room menu by clicking the red gear icon, and then clicking Assign Rooms to Patrol button on the…
