Changelog — Flags & Fortunes

v1.5.1

Latest October 2026

Build the campus into a town of your own.

Choose the architecture for your whole racing campus: Modern, Classic, Luxury, Industrial or Futuristic. The first choice is free, and you can re-clad the site later for $100M.
The signature building now comes in eight designs and eight concepts. Knock it down and rebuild it as something new for $250M, and it keeps its level.
Fifteen monuments to raise on six sites around the campus, including a Drivers' Tower where your drivers live.
Monuments bring in tourism every week, and the takings rise with your popularity.
Each one arrives with a name of its own. Rename it, move it or tear it down.
Tourism has its own line in your weekly finances.

v1.5.0

October 2026

Race weekends run live, and every city, campus, car and circuit is rebuilt in 3D.

Race weekends are now run lap by lap. Cars launch from the grid, make their stops, lose time in traffic and retire mid-lap, and the finishing order is simply who crosses the line first. The result stays hidden until the chequered flag.
A live timing tower follows every pass, with gaps to the leader, places gained or lost, and cars in the pits.
All twelve circuits have their own setting, from snow at Northern Lights to the quays of Harbor City.
Watch at 1x, 2x or 4x.
All 27 cities have been rebuilt in 3D, each from its own architecture: brick terraces and chimney stacks in London, zinc mansards in Paris, stepped canal houses in Amsterdam, neon signs and air conditioners in Tokyo, domes and palms in Dubai.
Every crown landmark now stands on the map as its own building, all 99 of them, and its star sits on its roof.
New traffic in every city.
Your headquarters street view is built from the city it stands in, with your company's name along the roofline.
The racing campus is real buildings now, growing with every upgrade, set in open country with a test oval, a lake and a town on the horizon.
New showroom renders for all six road cars, and a new race car in the garage that keeps every livery, number, rim, halo and wing option.
Team emblems are struck like enamel badges.
Fixed missing landmark pins in London, Tokyo and Mexico City. Property pins now stay on the same roof between launches.

v1.4.1

September 2026

Fixed the Motorcar Division rows printing two figures on top of each other. Weekly demand and the built, sold and in-stock counts were sharing the same line and colliding once a career got big enough for the numbers to run long.
Large production runs read as 398K rather than 397,515 where the row is tight.

v1.4.0

September 2026

Your headquarters, at street level. Plus a deeper market and cities built from their own architecture.

A new VIEW HQ button on the headquarters page opens your office at street level. Traffic runs on both roads, staff walk the pavement and pass in and out of the lobby, and the building carries your livery along its cornice with your company name on the fascia. All six office types have their own architecture, so relocating your headquarters changes what you see.
Fourteen companies have listed since the last build, taking the market to 53 tickers. They cover battery technology, utilities, defence, water and precious metals, and several carry enough volatility to finish a season down.
Twenty new businesses to buy and thirteen new trophy assets, taking the ladder to sixty and the collection to seventy seven.
Cities are built from their own architecture now. New York wears brick and sandstone under water towers and deco crowns, Paris is limestone and mansard roofs, Amsterdam brick and pitched. Dubai is white render with domes and helipads; Singapore is full of roof gardens.
Your campus sits in a landscape. Ridgelines, a lake, a distant town and an outlying test oval with its grandstand lie beyond the fence, and the grounds gained a fountain, a tennis court, a gatehouse and a service yard.

v1.3.0

August 2026

We rebuilt how the game draws itself. Sharper everywhere, and the cities finally look like cities.

Everything on the world map is genuinely sharp now. The city was being drawn at half resolution and stretched to fit, which is what made it look soft and blocky. It renders at full resolution from here on.
City buildings got real facades. Every window is drawn, in proper floor-by-floor grids, instead of a few lit squares on a blank wall, and buildings are made of different materials now: sandstone, brick, verdigris, charcoal, white render, blue glass.
Skylines gained a roofline. Towers step inward as they rise, the tallest carry crowns, masts and beacons, mid-rise blocks have rooftop plant, and low-rise has proper pitched roofs in terracotta and copper-green.
Streets have lane markings and trees along the verge.
Your racing campus is no longer six matching blocks. The factory has a sawtooth roof, the design centre steps back as it rises, the wind tunnel is a barrel shell, and the commercial suite is crowned, all on plinths, with parapets and entrance canopies. Outside the fence there's now a treeline and an approach road.
The signature building gained three genuinely different silhouettes: a glazed drum with a sky-bridge, cascading planted terraces that grow a garden per level, or a tapering monolith that finishes in a lit gold point.
The race car is drawn properly now. Every edge on it used to be a staircase. Road cars and the race car are both lit from above, so they read as objects instead of stickers.
The window fits any monitor, including ultrawides where it could previously slide under the taskbar. It opens centred and re-fits if you drag it to a second screen.
Buttons respond the instant you press them, and a press can be taken back by sliding off the button before you let go.
The game is light-only for now while we settle the look.

v1.2.1

July 2026

The signature building on your campus now comes in three distinct designs you pick when you commission it: a glass tower, a terrace with a solar roof, or a dark monolith, each a proper detailed building that out-glows the rest of the campus, instead of a plain block.
Brightened the title-screen speed streaks so they show their colour in both light and dark mode.
Fixed the signature building's marquee so the name sits centred on the sign.

v1.2.0

July 2026

The big visual update. We went back through the whole game and made it look the way it always should have.

Race weekends rebuilt from the ground up: every venue is now its own hand-designed circuit with real hairpins, chicanes and straights instead of the old ovals, plus a live timing tower, a five-light start, and a proper celebration when you finish on the podium.
The world map is alive now: windows light up at dusk and traffic moves through the streets of every city.
Net-worth graphs across HQ, the Board Report and the Chairman's desk were redrawn as proper financial charts.
Your car now sits in a lit garage bay instead of floating on a plain card.
Team logos stay sharp and readable on every livery colour.
The app icon is fixed and centred, and it stays put in the Dock while you play.
Added a one-click "Check for Updates" right on the title screen.
A long list of smaller polish and fixes throughout.

v1.1.0

July 2026

Staff and executives now have morale. Cheap out on their pay and they can walk (you'll be warned first), and the C-suite screen spells out exactly what each hire does for you.
Driver stats now explain what PACE / CONS / CRAFT mean, and the Hall of Fame clarifies the † for retired drivers.
The Motorcar Division got a full economic rebalance. Prices and production track demand realistically, with three new heavy-industry factory tiers for serious scale.
Fixed a stray "?" career in the load screen, and dark mode now sticks between sessions.

v1.0.0

July 2026

The commercial debut.

Renamed to Flags & Fortunes for launch.
Real-world scenery across all 27 city markets.
The nameable Signature Building on your campus.
A full interface alignment pass and dark-mode menus.
The first Windows release.
