About the Game

CAR MANUFACTURE
Car Manufacture is a game about building and managing a car factory in the early 20th century. With nothing but a few thousand dollars, you will have the opportunity to build and develop your own factory, designing every aspect of its operation. Start by constructing buildings and organizing the first production line. Hire employees and train them to ensure their skill levels are high. Plan the optimal production process and start making money. You will need it to develop technology and research each of the sixty car models available in the game. Carefully build your brand’s reputation and become a master of promotion and sales, where popularity plays a key role. Always stay one step ahead of the competition.Features
- Create a unique car factory in seven different cities.
- Build and optimize assembly lines for effective production.
- Manage and train several types of stats-driven employees.
- Promote products and set prices strategically.
- Improve your factory by unlocking new objects and machines.
- Explore innovative technologies and research new car models.
- Increase your factory’s popularity to draw more clients.
- Take part in the challenges to test your knowledge and practical skills.

The beginning of the 20th century brought new opportunities. Demonstrate the qualities of an excellent leader as you become the head of the car factory. Choose one of the seven available cities. The future of the automotive industry is in your hands.
Discover the capabilities of the production line that revolutionized automotive history by reducing production costs and speeding up car assembly. Start with individual stations, then group them together and divide tasks accordingly. Learn how to optimize the entire process and ensure a regular supply of parts. And yes, there are robots available. Who knows, maybe in the future you will become a completely independent plant that produces even the smallest screw.
The Research department is essential in the factory for discovering new car projects. Currently, the game features nearly 60 different vehicles. Discovering each new project will require increasing amounts of experience and time. Acquire new technologies to build advanced devices that support and accelerate the work of scientists.

Behind every car you create are people, with varying levels of experience. It is your responsibility to ensure the factory operates at full capacity. Manage and train your employees, assigning tasks according to their skills. Keep them satisfied and well-rested to ensure efficient work. However, remember that well-trained employees demand higher wages.
Each vehicle has its life cycle, during which popularity rises and customers are willing to spend more. Learn when to run promotions, lower the price, or discontinue the production of a particular model. Overall trends and the brand quality of the manufactured cars influence popularity. Take care of it, as it directly impacts sales and the success of the factory.

Experiment with game mechanics. Some of them require multiple attempts to work optimally. Your factory can be a highly complex system, but simply observing it can be a very relaxing experience. As you gain experience, you can take on various challenges and test your skills in short missions. Some are tricky and require creativity to earn a large number of stars.

Dear Manufacturers,
This patch fixed bugs related to buyers and drivers accepting car transport orders. Customers were sometimes handed over vehicles that had already been taken, causing issues with the factory's task system.

Dear Manufacturers,
In this version, I've fixed further bugs that appeared while factory workers were working. Scientists sometimes teleport strangely after leaving their desks, but this doesn't affect stability.
I've improved the error reporting system, which I hope will make it easier to pinpoint problems in the future.
If the update doesn’t appear immediately, please restart Steam.

Dear Manufacturers,
I've made changes to factory worker movement when the FPS is low (<15). The previous solution with substeps caused problems on maps with stairs. Workers should now be able to navigate vertical approaches correctly. Movement will be somewhat simplified at low FPS, but characters will always reach their intended destination. Occasionally, minor jumps will still be visible – I'm still working on this, but the most important aspect of this patch was ensuring that the characters reach their destinations during accelerated gameplay and high CPU usage.
Thanks to the community's help, we were able to locate two sources of null-exception errors that were appearing to many players after a few minutes of play. The errors were related to workers leaving their workspace and returning tools after assembling a car.
If the update doesn’t appear immediately, please restart Steam.

Dear Manufacturers,
I've implemented substep calculations for worker movement at low FPS. This corrected erratic worker movements and smoothed out their movement paths. Workers couldn't find the right spot on the map because they were running around chaotically. This should fix some bugs related to tasks being abandoned by such workers.
I've added mass salary changes to the worker list. Additionally, the \[+] and \[-] buttons now respond to pressing CTRL(x10) and SHIFT(x100).
I've increased the worker salary limit to 999.
I've added the ability to focus the camera on an employee by clicking on the worker list with the CTRL key.
