We have been silent for a long time. Now it's time to speak up. We have worked a lot during this time. By no means we are done with Forklift Simulator. Things just need extra time sometimes.

- EA 0.1.7 - 5 October 2024
BUGFIX: When user returned back to main menu, then loaded back the game, internal state wasn't recognizing. REBALANCE: When there was no listing present, putting a product to sale would cause it to have zero value, because technically it is the whole market. Now lowest limit is 25% of it's base value. REBALANCE: Increased user selling chance by 10%. REBALANCE: When publishing a listing, the value could only be increased/decreased by F$0.1, making it nearly impossible to set your own price.
