Let's start the month with one more free update. This time we're introducing the Leaderboards!

Ever wanted to prove that you are the best chef around? Well, now you can! Pick an order and take it to the kitchen. No distractions, just one simple goal – serve the best dish you can, as fast as you can. Based on this performance, the game will calculate your score and place you on a leaderboard (each recipe has its own). Become an expert at one dish or master them all!

Give it a try and keep practicing. We might have a nice surprise for the best chefs!

There's a new patch available. Mostly fixes for bugs caused by the recent updates:

• Fixed collision detection for tables in the Classic Kitchen
  
• Modern Kitchen fryer knobs now turn properly
  
• Improved collision detection and placing items for Modern Kitchen
  
• Improved button performance for upgrading dishes
  
• Fixed bug related to carrying objects after placing containers on the microwave in Modern Kitchen
  
• Fixed bugs related to Chicken Wings
  
• From now on the metal crates in the Modern Kitchen's pantry won't burn
  
• Improved sponge performance
  
• New animations for Win and Defeat screens in the Cooking with Food Network DLC
  
• Achievements related to money can no longer be unlocked in Sandbox (I'll hand it on the wall, 100 bucks, 1000 bucks, 10 000 bucks, 25 000 bucks)

Hi Chefs!

The dev team is hard at work to constantly improve Cooking Simulator. Today we want to shed some light on things that we are up to and when to expect them.

This is why we're very excited to present to you the Cooking Simulator Roadmap. First in a series of announcements spotlighting features and content currently under development. It's also a way of letting you know when to expect new content and important messages.

THE ROADMAP

Today's spotlight is on two major content updates coming to the game for FREE in the next few weeks! But before you scroll down to learn the details, mark down 6th of December in your calendars. That's the date of our next big announcement!


















- What about features that aren't on the list? Does this mean you aren't working on anything else? - Rest assured, we're exploring all kinds of different topics - from bugfixing, through optimisation, new content, new game modes to entirely new ways to experience Cooking Simulator. What we decide to share through the roadmap are features that we can put a specific timeframe on. We don't want to tease you too much ;)

MODERN KITCHEN

Many of you have spent hours upon hours in Cooking Simulator's kitchen and you need a change - we hear you! Staying in one place for too long can have it's toll. So on 21st of November we'll introduce a new location to hang out and cook all that delicious food.



Tired of the same old brick walls and all the noise coming from the streets? Try the Modern Kitchen - a new fancy place located in a luxury skyscraper, detached from the racket of the city. Modern Kitchen will become available in career and sandbox modes (requires starting a new game) as a FREE update to the game.

LEADERBOARD CHALLENGE

Ever wanted to prove that you are the best chef around? Well, soon you will be able to! Pick an order from all the dishes available in the game and take to the kitchen. No distractions, just one simple goal - serve the best dish you can, the fastest you can.



Based on this performance, the game will calculate your score and place you on a leaderboard. Each recipe will have its own leaderboard. Become an expert in one or master them all. Rivalry begins on 4th of December with a FREE update to the game.

SECRET ANNOUNCEMENT

But that's not all! We have another very important announcement coming for you on December the 6th. Be sure to mark down that date and visit our community page on Steam. We won't tease what we have in store for you - don't want to spoil the surprise, you'll have to be patient. But feel free to speculate in comments, on the forums and on our Discord: https://discord.gg/cookingsimulator

Also be sure to let us know what you think about the upcoming features and this format of revealing them!

Hope you'll have a great time with the new content!

Bugfixes:

• Fixed bugs causing giant pieces of meat appearing upon loading older save files
  
• Fixed bugs causing halloween decorations not loading from save files
