Hi everyone,

I'm hard at work on the full game, but I'm still planning to do weekly updates for the demo up until next month. In this update, I've added a couple of new ways to interact with customers.

##### Desperate Customers

If a customer hasn't had a deal for a while, and they've built up a certain level of addiction, they'll come find you and ask for a deal on the spot. You can either agree to make a deal, ask them to follow you while you grab some product, or reject them. If you reject an addicted and violent customer, they might attack you!

##### Instant Offers

You can now approach any of your customers and ask them on the spot if they'd like to make a deal. If they haven't bought anything for a while, and you have a good enough relationship, they'll agree to make a deal. You can choose what to sell and set an asking price. Depending on the quality of the deal, they'll complete the deal or call it off.

**Additions**

- Added desperate customer requests.

- Added instant offers.

- Added message delete button. The conversation will be hidden until a new message is received.

**Tweaks/Improvements**

- Pot fill percentage is now shown while pouring soil.

- Replaced the 3D hazmat suit with a 2D avatar texture. It's pretty much visually identical but should be a bit more performant and will prevent clipping issues.

- Reduced NPC type label in the messages app.

- Added bed to Gas-Mart. This is to prevent soft-locking if you don't have a bed at night after the hardware store is closed.

- Modified in-game bug reporting tool to include previous session logs.

- Police will now let each other know if they spot the target.

**Bug fixes**

- Fixed Cash for Trash machines in co-op.

- Fixed counter-offer price selector sometimes not working properly.

- Fixed harvested weed buds reappearing after exiting and reloading.

- Fixed mixing station breaking when two stations complete the same new mix at the same time.

- Fixed non-host clients still having counter-offer message responses after rejection.

- Fixed non-client client inventories sometimes not loading correctly on rejoin.

- Fixed a rare issue where using a VPN would cause singleplayer not to load correctly.

- Fixed some police car chase AI bugs.

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned for another update next week - I'm planning to add an upgraded packaging station.
