Update 1.0.5 is here

The Project Highrise team have been busy working on brand new improvements and bug fixes, and now Update 1.0.5 has been released with several new features such as new graphics options for heatmap colours, a fast camera pan mode (handy) and retuned NPCs/stores to be better. They've also fixed some nasty bugs such as the arrow keys being more like the WASD setup so now you're not forced into playing it with those keys and many other fixes.

Improvements

• Added a new graphics option to customize heatmap colors, for players with color blindness
• Added a hint mouseover that displays what a tenant is going to need after they moved in, but before they start demanding it (see an icon "i", next to tenant's satisfaction smiley)
• Added a fast camera pan mode: CTRL + mouse wheel now pans the camera up and down
• Retuned worker and resident NPCs to patronize retail stores much more than they used to
• Retuned retail store revenues and limits, to account for the change in customer base
• Retuned restaurants and retail to be more sensitive to not generating enough profit

Bug fixes

• Fixed arrow keys so that they behave exactly like WASD, +/- behave like Q/E
