New Farm Equipment Feature in Capitalism Lab v12.0.55

2026-04-24T12:38:48Z

Capitalism Lab post-release beta version 12.0.55 now available

New Feature: Farm Equipment in Experimental DLC

Farm Equipment is a new gameplay feature introduced in the Experimental DLC, adding greater depth and strategic decision‑making to agricultural operations.

A New Layer of Farming Strategy

In the base game, the quality of agricultural products is determined entirely by training and leveling up farming units. While effective, some players found this system too straightforward, as it allowed high‑quality output without requiring additional investment or planning. The Farm Equipment system changes this dynamic. When enabled, the productivity and quality bonuses gained from training and leveling up farming units are reduced. To achieve higher product quality, players must now also invest in farm equipment for their farming units. This creates a more realistic and strategically engaging farming experience, where equipment quality and quantity play a meaningful role in overall output.

Manufacturing Farm Equipment

Farm equipment isn’t just a cost—it’s also a business opportunity. Players can establish factories to manufacture farm equipment and profit from the B2B demand generated by farms across the map. For companies with large farming operations, producing farm equipment in‑house offers a significant strategic advantage. Instead of purchasing equipment from external suppliers, you can supply your own farms directly, effectively keeping the profits within your own corporate ecosystem. This vertical integration can improve margins, stabilize supply, and strengthen your competitive position.

Farm equipment is categorized under the Automobile product class. You can manufacture it by setting up a factory, just as you would when producing any other type of product.

How to Purchase Farm Equipment for Your Farm

To purchase farm equipment for your farm, click the Farm Equipment icon to access to Farm Equipment Purchase menu.

In the Farm Equipment Purchase menu, click the Add Supplier button. Select a farm equipment supplier to purchase from.

After selecting a supplier, set the monthly purchase budget. The farm will then automatically buy new farm equipment each month until no more equipment is needed. Note that the quality rating of the farm equipment is important, as it directly affects how much productivity and quality your farm products will gain.

How the Quality of Farm Products is Determined

When the Farm Equipment feature is enabled, farm product quality is determined by the sum of three components, as explained below: 10 (constant Base Quality) + the Unit's Experience Level (max 45) + Farming Equipment (max 45).

New Cities Feature in Capitalism Lab Version 12.0.23

2026-03-13T06:09:19Z

Capitalism Lab post-release beta version 12.0.23 now available

We’re pleased to announce that Capitalism Lab post-release beta version 12.0.23 is now available for download.

Download Capitalism Lab post-release beta version 12.0.23

Highlighted New Features

Capitalism Lab version 12.0 introduces a host of new features, and this newsletter spotlights a selection of them.

New Feature: AI May Establish New Cities

Experience an even more dynamic and competitive world in the City Economic Simulation DLC with the new game option “AI May Establish New Cities“. When enabled, your AI rivals can now found entirely new cities in undeveloped regions — just like you — using the Build New City feature.

AI competitors will:
• Select promising undeveloped areas on the map
• Invest substantial funds to establish city treasuries
• Appoint their own mayors

This gives them exclusive 30-year control over the new city’s development. New cities appear organically over time, driven by AI strategy and available capital, adding realism and surprise as the game world evolves beyond your direct influence.

Digital Age DLC Visual Upgrade

Version 12.0 introduces new building graphics for the Digital Age DLC, giving your tech empire a sharper, more immersive look.

Software Company: Now features a clean, modern design that reflects its innovation-driven role.

Internet Company: Redesigned with bold lines and digital-era styling to stand out in your cityscape.

Telecom: Updated with a solid, contemporary look that reinforces its role as a core infrastructure provider.

“New Cities Will Emerge” Option in Experimental DLC

The Experimental DLC adds a major world‑building upgrade that changes how long games unfold: the “New Cities Will Emerge” option. This feature introduces long‑term dynamism by allowing entirely new cities to appear over time, reshaping regional competition, market demand, and strategic planning.

Unlike the “AI May Establish New Cities” option described above—where AI‑founded settlements begin empty and grow from scratch—these newly emerging cities arrive with established populations, making them active markets from the moment they appear. Another key difference is that these cities arise on their own within the world, rather than being created by AI companies.

New Game Rules in Experimental DLC

A new [New Game Rules] tab is available under the Experimental DLC page in the New Game Settings menu, offering the following options:

Industry Expertise Only

When this is enabled, persons will no longer possess general skills such as retailing or manufacturing. Instead, they will specialize in a specific product class. Their industry-specific expertise will enhance not only the R&D units dedicated to their particular product class but also the manufacturing, purchasing, and sales units focused on that same product class.

For firms managed by a person with industry expertise:

1) Each expertise point the person has in a product class increases the R&D performance of that class by 1%.

2) When upgrading a manufacturing unit in that product class to a higher-level technology, the unit’s level will remain unchanged.

3) Manufacturing, purchasing, and sales units focused on that product class will operate at higher unit levels.

Example:
If a person has industry expertise in the Computer product class, all manufacturing, purchasing, and sales units related to Computer products will receive increased unit levels. This grants the character a strong competitive edge in both producing and selling computers.

High‑priced Products

Normally, a manufacturing unit does not spend more than one day producing a product. When this option is enabled, products with a base price of $20,000 or higher in the game dataset or in mods, such as electric cars, will require a manufacturing unit to spend more than one day producing a single unit.

When a high‑priced product requires multiple in‑game days to manufacture a single unit, the manufacturing unit will now show a progress bar within the 3×3 area to indicate production progress.

The Corporate Details – Rankings Report Improvements

New financial metrics have been added:

Debt to Equity Ratio - a financial leverage metric that compares a company’s total debt to its shareholders’ equity. It shows how much the company relies on borrowed funds versus owner‑provided capital. In simple terms, it answers: “For every dollar of equity, how many dollars of debt does the company have?”

Interest Coverage Ratio - a financial metric that measures how easily a company can pay the interest on its outstanding debt. In simple terms, it shows how many times a company’s earnings can cover its interest expenses.

In addition, the Corporate Details – Rankings report now shows the leader’s name for each ranking.

Added portraits and bios of influential people in the Influential 100 Chart for the City Economic Simulation DLC

The Influential 100 Chart now features vivid portraits and brief biographies, transforming each entry from a mere name into a memorable personality. This upgrade adds richer depth and a more immersive feel to your gameplay.

Redesigned Built-in Advertising System in Experimental DLC

The new built-in advertising system allows you to advertise across multiple media firms simultaneously.

You can now link several media firms to a single built-in advertising unit. After connecting them, simply select any product in your company and use the slider to set its monthly advertising budget.

For instance, imagine your built‑in advertising system is connected to three media firms, each allocating $100,000 per month, giving you a combined monthly pool of $300,000. Setting a product’s advertising budget to 20% would assign it $60,000 of that total.

This update provides a more versatile and powerful advertising system, allowing you to promote your products more effectively.

Visually Improved New Game Settings Menu

This version features a redesigned New Game Settings menu that gives the game a more modern look.

Performance Boost – New "Skip Frames When Mouse is Idle" Feature.

This version introduces the "Skip Frames When the Mouse is Idle", a smart new option that dramatically speeds up simulation runs at maximum game speed.

Here’s how it works:
When you’re running the game at full speed and your mouse is idle (no panning or clicking), the game no longer renders every single frame. Instead, it periodically renders just one frame while skipping several in between. This cuts down the video processing workload and lets the simulation fly through in-game years much quicker.

We ran tests with a demanding setup: 50 companies, 7 cities, 2 in-game years at max speed. The results speak for themselves:

Expanded Persons – Wealth Report

The Persons – Wealth Report has been expanded with new tabs that display each individual’s assets on separate pages, including Bank Deposits, Stocks, Bonds, and Properties.

Capitalism Lab Script Generator

2025-09-23T07:22:53Z

Introducing the Capitalism Lab Script Generator

We are excited to announce the official launch of the Capitalism Lab Script Generator – your new tool for creating custom game scripts with ease and flexibility!

Gone are the days of manually writing and editing script files. With our web-based Script Generator, you can now design your own Capitalism Lab scenarios using an intuitive user interface. Choose from a wide range of advanced configuration options, including:

🌍 Environment Settings: Unlock advanced options beyond the standard in-game UI, including the ability to expand the game to feature up to 15 cities using a script, and customize both your start-up capital and personal cash amounts.

🏢 Competitor Controls: Adjust AI behavior, expertise levels, company focus, and private company features.

⚓ Product and Seaport Management: Manage import quality, product categories, and seaport goods.

🏙️ Custom Cities: Define city locations, populations, and economic parameters.

Access the Script Generator on the Capitalism Lab website

Why Use the Script Generator? Advantages Over Normal Game Settings

While the in-game New Game Settings menu provides a solid foundation for starting a game, it has limitations. The Script Generator breaks these barriers, offering features that enhance realism, challenge, and personalization. Here's why it's superior:

1. Access to "Special Rules" Not Available in Normal Settings

One of the standout benefits is the ability to incorporate "Special Rules" that aren't possible through the standard menu. This section of the generator lets you tweak game mechanics in profound ways:

Game Speed & AI Settings: Set a constant game speed, give AI competitors years of advanced start, limit AI firm creation, or control stock purchases during AI initialization.
Economic Modifiers for Salaries and Costs: Adjust salaries for key executives (CEO, COO, CTO, CMO), modify tech costs, training effects, and retail costs.
Economic Modifiers for Capacities: Adjust the capacities of factories, warehouses, and natural resources to enable them to process and produce goods based on the modified capacity values.
Brand & Natural Resources: Fix a brand strategy (e.g., Corporate, Range, or Unique), set corporate brand awareness and loyalty levels, enable unlimited or fewer natural resources, or disable price premiums for them.
Auto Save Settings: Customize auto-save intervals in days or real minutes, and enable multiple auto-saves over years.

These options allow for scenarios like hyper-realistic economies with volatile boom-bust cycles or resource-scarce worlds that force strategic innovation—settings that simply aren't adjustable in the base game.

2. Fine-Tuned Player Expertise Customization

Another key advantage is the dedicated "Player Expertise" page, where you can precisely set your character's skills. In the normal game, expertise levels are somewhat randomized or limited, but here you can dial them in from 0-100 across categories like:

General Expertise in Retailing, Farming, Manufacturing, Research & Development, Raw Material Production, Marketing, and Training.
Product Class Expertise: Add specific expertise for various product classes (e.g., Apparel, Automobiles, Electronics).
Digital Age DLC Expertise: Customize skills in Software and Internet sectors.

This means you can start as a retail genius with maxed-out marketing skills or a tech novice relying on raw ambition. It's perfect for role-playing or testing specific strategies without relying on in-game progression.

3. Precise Control Over Starting Capital and Cash

The generator lets you customize elements that are fixed or coarsely adjustable in the normal menu:

Your Start-up Capital: Choose from presets (Very Low to Very High) or specify an exact amount in millions—something impossible in the base settings.
Your Initial Personal Cash: Set a specific amount to kick off your personal finances, giving you the freedom to simulate bootstrapped startups or well-funded ventures.

4. Beyond the Basics: Extreme Customizations

The tool shines in enabling setups that defy standard limits:

More Cities: Expand the game to feature up to 15 cities.
Custom Cities: One of the most exciting features is the ability to add custom cities directly via the Script Generator. You can define their exact locations, populations, and economic parameters.
Products and Seaports: Randomly disable product classes, set import qualities, or specify exact seaport products (e.g., Jeans, Mobile Phones, Steel).
DLC-Specific Tweaks: Fine-tune settings for expansions like City Economic Simulation, Digital Age, Banking and Finance, Service Industry, and Experimental DLCs. Disable features, adjust AI behaviors, or modify economic indices for a bespoke experience.

5. Complex Goal Settings

Take your game's objectives to the next level with intricate goal configurations. Define a main goal, then add multiple subgoals—each of which can include multiple objectives for layered challenges. For instance, a subgoal might require achieving market dominance in two product classes while maintaining a certain profit margin. You can also define rewards for achieving a goal (such as knowledge points, monetary bonuses, or expertise boosts) and penalties for failing one.

New Features in Service Industry DLC:

Shopping Mall: Construct and manage bustling shopping malls, each a bustling hub of commerce housing many retail outlets under one roof. From chic boutiques to electronics stores, you'll curate the ultimate shopping experience for your virtual consumers.

Drive customer traffic to your mall with a dynamic mix of stores that appeal to a broad audience. This exciting feature utilizes a smart algorithm, factoring in the type and mix of stores, to determine and boost the customer traffic in your mall. Not just one, but all stores benefit from this increased traffic, demonstrating the attractive principle of collective growth within capitalism.

Service Firms: Diversify your business empire by opening fast food joints, pizzerias, cake shops, and coffee shops. Experience a unique blend of production and sales in a streamlined 3×3 layout, where ingredients are prepared and sold in one fluid operation. This exciting new feature combines the best of manufacturing and retail, offering a fresh and dynamic way to engage with the game's market ecosystem.

Import Company: The Import Company expands your supply chain options by enabling direct purchases of goods from overseas markets. This facility proves especially valuable in early gameplay, providing flexible access to resources before establishing full production capabilities.

Export Company: Maximize your profits with the Export Company! When local markets reach saturation, don’t let your products sit idle. Ship your surplus goods, raw materials, and semi-finished products internationally to tap into global demand. It’s particularly useful in Survival mode, offering a strategic path to expansion.

Logistics Company: It offers a simple and straightforward revenue stream that complements a company’s overall strategy. As your business grows, the Logistics Company scales with it, boosting freight capacity and profitability. When combined with Digital Age DLC, your logistics company can also generate additional revenue from e-commerce deliveries.

Integrated Retail Spaces in Apartment and Commercial Buildings: Now you can set up retail or service firms directly on the ground floor of your apartments and commercial buildings, unlocking new strategic opportunities for your empire.

New Apartment and Commercial Buildings: These new buildings are available in both 2×2 and 3×3 base structures. When the “Apartment and Commercial Buildings Have Retail Space” option is enabled, the new 3×3 buildings can accommodate large retail stores, like department stores, adding even more depth to your city's economy and design.

Cash-strapped Startup Mode: Experience the ultimate entrepreneurial challenge with Capitalism Lab's“Cash-strapped Startup”mode. Start your business journey with just $1 million and prove your business acumen by building a retail empire from scratch. Instead of buying property outright, you'll need to lease retail spaces in shopping malls – just like real-world startups. This realistic approach forces you to make strategic decisions and carefully manage your limited resources.
