Changelog

What's new in ENDGRAIN, newest first.

v1.5.2

A figured board no longer keeps the shop drawing at full speed after its shimmer has played.

The shop now asks for a rating at a good moment, at most three times a year, and the back office has a RATE THE SHOP row.

When a market is about to close unplayed, a last-call notice drops into the header so you can still play it.

The filled order no longer flashes across the top of the screen; it slides up into its own row and disappears there.

Ending an exhibition run now takes a second tap, and the last run you ended can be restored for 12 vouchers from the plaque book; the run card on THE WALL opens the plaque book.

HOW TO PLAY in the back office now explains the whole game — the shop, vouchers and coins, the market, the Business License, the coin exchange, and that nothing resets — with every number on it read live from the game.

The coin exchange now prices by the shop's year, half a percent of the coins on hand in Year One rising each year to 5% from Year Five on, so a shop in Year Five or later pays ten times what it paid before.

A licensed shop can now trade coins for vouchers from the voucher packs screen, 12 at a time, up to ten times a year, for half a percent of the coins on hand.

Markets pay more the longer you keep filling orders: every 3 orders past 9 earns another voucher reward, shown as +1, +2, +3 on the stall and the receipt, and market orders lean simpler from the first year.

The privacy page now lists everything the game sends, including the app version, the device model and error reports.

Finishing board 37 or later now shows the finished board on the ceremony screen.

The year card now shows your exact coin balance.
A record run that earns a fossil piece now shows the piece landing on its picture.

A barnwood strip you earned no longer takes the place of a strip you bought at the lumber yard.

ENDGRAIN now runs on iPad and on tablets, as a larger version of the iPhone game.

Every shop order opens one Order Details sheet: BUILD when a board fills it, SKIP when none does, and each wood in the board order is a chip you can tap to name it.
Tap anywhere on an order card in the shop to open its Order Details.
When a full lane would fill an order, that order lights up with a gold ring.
An order now counts only when the board's strips read in the order's own order: bottom to top in the lane is left to right on the card. Wild, rosewood and bog-oak strips still fill any slot.
The first mixed order's tip now says which way an order reads: left to right on the card, bottom up in the lane.
Tap the calendar on the sign to see how many builds are left before the next month.
Year One is re-paced: each month's moments arrive in their month, all six woods are in the shop by July, and the first lanes cost half as much.
A special order that comes due while another is on screen now waits its turn instead of being lost.
A special order's SKIP is now voucher blue, like every other voucher spend.

Each run milestone now hangs one plaque in COLLECTIONS, once: a run that breaks starts again from 0 on the rung you were climbing, the plaques you were owed hang at the current year, and the door shows your highest. A run of 2 now warns you before a plain board ends it.
