New
More Medal Shop upgrades - 30+ new items to spend your Medals on, with a few existing upgrades tuned to make room for them, so the shop lasts much longer instead of maxing out early (requested by players)
Buy All button for Upgrades - buy every tier at once with one click, just like the buildings Buy All (requested by multiple players)
Unlocks as a Rebirth tree upgrade
More Excavation levels - the level cap goes from 14 to 24, so you keep leveling up your mine deep into the late game instead of hitting the ceiling mid-run (requested by multiple players)
Each new level keeps boosting your Fossil income and your chance at rainbow rewards
Changed
Clarified the "Crewmate Offer Boost" upgrades - your current crew also get the higher bonus at your next rebirth, so there's no need to dismiss and rehire them (as requested)
Lowered the cost of the later levels of "Crewmate Offer Boost 1" so you can max it out by the end game, instead of its top levels getting out of reach
Already bought some levels? They're doubled (up to the max of 70) to make up for the old, higher price
Ascension tree "Buy Path" now also grabs the cheap leftover upgrades along the way, so the small side upgrades don't get left behind - no more going back to buy them one by one after each rebirth
Rebirth statistics now track both Unique rebirth products purchased and Total rebirth products purchased so buying extra upgrade levels is tracked properly (as requested)
Clarified that the rebirth "start with X unlocked" upgrades don't reduce your total Amber - it moves to your other Ascension Tree unlocks instead
Removed the Unlimited and 240 Maximum FPS options - they made the game use a lot more CPU (and spin up your fans) with no visible gain in an idle game. If you had one of them picked, you're now on 144
"Save and Quit" now asks you to confirm first, so a misclick doesn't close the game
Improved the contrast of the Holiday Tasks time left text so it's easier to see against light backgrounds
Rebalanced Silver and Gold prices across the game - some costs may look higher or lower than before, but over a full run the pace to progress stays the same
Rebalanced the Catch Rarer Fish upgrade so your rarer-fish odds ramp up more smoothly as you level it, instead of spiking from the very first levels
Rebalanced the Trader so the deals you can buy each week grow steadily as you rebirth and stay balanced, instead of getting out of hand in the late game
Fixed
Fixed Away Income (Silver and Gold) being much lower than it should be - your Pet bonuses weren't counted when you came back to the game, so the more your Pets boosted you, the more you missed out on (reported by players)
Fixed hiring and rehiring crewmates being blocked after a rebirth
Crewmates still waiting to be rehired no longer take up a boat seat, so you can hire and rehire as long as you have a free spot (before, you had to dismiss even the locked ones)
Crew counts now show your active crew out of your seats everywhere - the crew menu and the squads menu (they could read wrong, like 14/1 or a too-high squad count, when you had locked crew)
Moving crew between squads follows the same rule now - allowed as long as the target squad has a free seat, instead of being blocked by locked crew
Newly hired crewmates now show in the right spot on the boat and sit with your active crew in the list
Fixed getting stuck on a zone you no longer had unlocked after the 3.0 reset - you now start back in the right zone
Daily quests to catch fish in a zone weren't counting until you switched zones yourself
Fixed the 3.0 reset not giving back the Amber spent on the infinite Rebirth upgrades - if you're at Rebirth 5, you get 20M Amber to make up for it (reported by players)
Fixed buying Pet Food with Amber giving only 10 instead of 1,000
Fixed the Earned Amber stat showing a wrong, inflated number for players from before the balance update - it now resets and tracks your real earnings
Fixed crewmates on the boat still showing their old stats on hover after being promoted
Fixed the star icon overlapping the crewmate level in the squads menu
Fixed the "Auto-Reposition Camera on New Boat" setting not being translated in other languages
Fixed building purchases breaking at extreme late-game Silver amounts
Fixed the Excavation level and XP text shrinking too small to read at high levels or in some languages
Fixed large upgrade multipliers showing as a full string of digits instead of a short, clean number
