AOE's are being revamped, which means the function of your aircon unit will change, so upon loading your save, your grills and higher-tier meth devices will blow up if you do not address them immediately.

The changes to the AOE Systems:

• The settings on AOE emitters now ranges from -100 to +100 depending on the emitter unit
  
• Higher tier AOEs now have stronger emission and wider range, giving you more of a reason to upgrade
  
• Hanging lights can now be placed above objects,
  
• Sprinklers now automatically water plants when placed near them.
  [
• }AOE values can be set with the slider or by inputting a number (within the min and max output levels)
  

Noteworthy information.

• Existing hanging lights you have placed will disappear.
  
• Exploding appliances will need to have their AOEs adjusted to prevent them from exploding when loading back into the game for the first time after the AOE changes.
  
• Money now includes pennies to allow for finer grain pricing.
  
• AOE costs have been reduced making production more economical.
  
• If a plant is within the range of a sprinkler, a small water icon will appear within the UI below the plant pot.
  

Bug Fixes:

• Fixes to employees not boxing up products reliably.
  
• Broken emitters start emitting again after saving and re-loading.
  
• Broken emitters still costing money to run.
  
• Emitters degrading in health even if the output was at 0.
  
• Emitters starting to emit again if their output value was changed despite being broken.
  
• Characters, products and walls spawning in a white material if a heatmap was active at the time.
  
• Emissions from residual sources costing the player money (e.g. from a chemical station).
  
• Translation error shown for Toxicity in the stats (plot expenses) breakdown menu.
