OK, ... The only upgrade that I felt really warranted knowing the machine count is the process cost, so that's the one it's attached to. I hope that makes sense and you agree with my reasoning. Well, I could see some value in know thing # of machines that are NOT process cost (like some of the upgr...

The Release Notes at the top of this forum are usually updated when a new release comes out... but not this time for some reason.

I can see the machine counts (in both the upgrade hover and the right panel) for all machines on windows platform, with the exception of the 4 makers. I don't see counters for them.

I've seen others ask for similar and while I haven't heard anything about that being implemented, you can accomplish something (sort of) similar with the new (directional) "Fixed" belts, by being careful with the spacing/timing. I've colored the 4 fixed belts in the 2 loops in this example...

Directional Belts (announced in last week's vlog) should allow you to do just this.

Directional Belts are coming!!! Tim's latest Vlog (VLOG #25) discusses the next patch having a new "machine" under auxiliary that will allow us to modify a placed belt so that they are "directional" (as opposed to the default "deterministic".) at the 4:20 mark, 'fixed b...

Maybe the Tutorials don't actually show removing side effects, but they do show the hover-over fro upgrading cures (which is similar).

Tutorial #3 appears to be broken for me (doesn't advance when I purchase factory plot).

Hovering over a side effect will show the concentration range and machine needed to remove it. Much in the same way that hovering over a cure will show the conditions for upgrading it. Note that not all side effects can be removed. If it can not, the hover-over will say "cannot be removed"...

I guess I only needed to move the /MyGames/BigPharma folder back to get everything restored.

Would still like to know where the game stores current version.

Close enough, in my book.

side effects can be removed in some cases.

"Causes fatigue" is removed when passed into agglomerator when concentration is between 0 and 5.
You had concentration=5 - it was removed.

I was able to get v1.02.00 to successfully run by reinstalling from a "BigPharma_Installer" I had downloaded previously. (23 Aug date) - I should've just gone to HumbleBumble for latest. Unfortunately that made me go through several download and update steps, rather than just go directly t...

putting a back up copy of scenarios.data in place fixed the problem, but I think that means I don't have the new re-balance on several challenges.

output_log.txt has:
IsolatedStorageException: Could not find file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Big Pharma\Big Pharma_Data\GameData\scenarios.data".

I'm assuming that's not good. No clue as to why I don't have that file.

just downloaded v1.02.00 (PC-WIN) and it freezes when loading (about 50% mark - I think that is where it normally would punt if a MOD was involved).

I can't recall if I had a MOD used last time I ran it, but will probably just clear everything out and try again.
