What changed in UrbanPact, newest first.

🧭 Finished research now tells you where to find it.
When your city completes a research, the notice says where its payoff lives — which panel and which button, like "/resources → ⏳ Runway" or "/city → 🏘 Districts → ⬆️ Raise all" — or that it works on its own and where you'll see it. It's in the hour report too, so cities without a group chat get it as well. Every finished row in /city → 🔬 Research carries the same pointer, so you can look it up later. (Thanks, Jörg!)

🏚 See where warehouse space is for lease without opening every city.
The 🛍 Shops tab in /tycoon and the 🛍 Supply Run list in /queue now mark each city with warehouse space on offer with 🏚, and the Shops tab names them under the list. (Thanks, Jörg!) -
🏚 You can now lease warehouse space in your own city — at half price once you've lived there 30 days.
If your city has researched Commerce Logistics 2, open /tycoon → 🛍 Shops and tap your own city: every shop you own there holds twice the stock, so you restock half as often. The whole fee goes to your city's treasury. Newer residents can lease too, at the full price, and the screen tells you how many days until the half price starts. Leasing in another city works as before. (Thanks, Jörg!)

💎 /market no longer gets stuck after you peek at a city.
Opening a deal and backing straight out used to block every other city's button; now only an offer you've actually started filling in is protected. (Thanks, ☃!) - 👻 /shoo is in the command menu for as long as there are ghosts to shoo this Halloween. (Thanks, ☃!)
-
💎 New: /market — who makes which luxury.
See every luxury good and the cities that make it. Mayors and Ministers of Trade can start a recurring deal or a one-time offer with any of them in one tap; everyone else sees who in their city to ask. Also on the /trade panel as 💎 Who makes luxuries?
October 12, 2026
- 🏘 District upgrades now show on your profile card. Raising your districts' density appears under ✨ Recently, with how many more families it made room for.
- 🍬 /crates now explains where Candy comes from: only crates you win during Halloween can hold it — crates you'd saved up from before don't.
-
👻 Clearer ghost instructions.
The ghost screen now says to tap a 👻 Shoo button to chase a ghost out, and your hour report says the same — opening /shoo on its own doesn't shoo anything. - 🎃 A Pumpkin Patch and a Jack-o'-Lantern Porch for your Estate. Two Halloween pieces join the plant and decor shops, on sale for gold until November 7 — yours to keep after that. (Thanks, Jörg!)
- 👻 Shooing a ghost now shows what it dropped right on the ghost screen, instead of only in a pop-up that vanished in a moment.
October 11, 2026
- 📜 Find out who's haunting you. Every ghost on the /shoo screen now has a Who was this? button with a short story of who they were in life.
- ↩️ On the website, a city page's back link now takes you back to the Cities list instead of the home page. (Thanks, ☃!)
-
🐈⬛ Already have a Cat? Make it a Black Cat.
While the Halloween pets are on sale, any Cat you own can become a Black Cat for the difference in price. It keeps its name, and it stays a Black Cat for good. Find it under 🐾 Pets in /estate. - 🎃 Halloween pets now stand out in the pet shop. They're marked with a pumpkin on the list and on their buttons, with a note saying how long they're on sale. (Thanks, ☃!)

🔮 Librarian's choice now trains your tanning rack too.
When it levels your tools, it was skipping leather because pelts always look scarce (they turn into leather as fast as they come in). Pelts only ever become leather, so they no longer hold the tanning rack back. -
↩️ The hunt queue and your action queue list every item on its own line again.
Grouping repeats there turned out more confusing than helpful, so it's gone: each hunt has its own line and its own 🚫, and /queue numbers every action again. The workbench keeps its grouped lines. -
🍬 Halloween Candy and pets.
From Sunday, some of the Prize Crates you win hold a piece of Candy — you'll see it when you open them. Spend it on six year-stamped Halloween keepsakes in /estate → 🎃 Keepsakes (93 Candy for the whole set), and keep any you don't spend for next year. Four Halloween pets — a Black Cat, Spider, Raven and Ghost — join the Estate pet shop until November 7. -
👻 Halloween begins Sunday, October 11: The Hauntening.
Until October 31, ghosts of history's most infamous villains will drift into your home now and then. Your hour report tells you when one moves in — tap /shoo to see who's rattling around and send them packing, one at a time or all at once. Each ghost you shoo drops 1,000–1,600 gold. Ghosts never wander off on their own, but a home holds at most five, so shoo them to make room. -
🚫 Remove just one from a grouped line.
On the workbench, a grouped line now has two buttons: one removes a single craft from the end of that run, the other removes the whole run. Thanks, Shane! -
🔢 Grouped queue lines now say how many.
On the workbench queue, a line for the same thing queued several times in a row now reads like "🔮 Librarian's choice — 15 more crafts, all done in 1h 15m", and its 🚫 says how many, instead of a small "×4" that was easy to miss. Thanks, David!

🔨 The workbench queue is shorter.
The craft being made right now keeps its own line and timer, and the same craft queued several times in a row now shows as one line, like "🔮 Librarian's choice ×15 — 1h 15m left", timed to when the last one finishes. That line has one 🚫 that cancels the whole run, instead of a button for every slot. -
🔮 Librarian's choice now levels your tools when your city is comfortable.
On the workbench, once every good you can craft has more than 3 days of stock to spare, the Librarian crafts with your lowest-level tool instead, picking whichever of that tool's goods your city will run out of soonest. Your city's build project still comes first.

😴 The game now tells you when a rested charge can't boost your research.
When your city's normal research already fills its 20-Page hourly limit, a rested charge can't add any more Pages, so it's kept for later. Your queue no longer puts 💤 on those research slots (and says why), and your hour report notes that the charge was saved. Thanks, Vik! -
🚚 The Supply Run list now shows which city you can restock without a queue slot.
Your own city (where your warehouses are) is marked 🚚 "no queue slot", and when your queue is full the warning now says that city still restocks right away, instead of just "clear a slot first", which made a restock that had worked look like it had failed. Thanks, Jörg!
