- Onboarding · UX
Simple vs Advanced Interface Mode
Pick your interface density right at the start screen. Simple keeps the core tabs (Dashboard, Booking, Roster, Schedule, Finances) and trims dense panels — perfect for your first save. Advanced unlocks every tab, stat, ledger, and sandbox tool. Toggle any time from Options → Interface Mode. Existing saves stay on Advanced so nothing disappears mid-run.

Booking Labels & Card Status Bar
The Booking panel is now scannable at a glance. Color-coded chips on every wrestler row (tier, alignment, CHAMP, ✦ FEUD, RIVAL, INJ, TIRED, BOOKED, OFF-DIV), summary + validation chips on every match (rematch, title mismatch, PPV-only stip warnings), and a new sticky Card Status bar showing card quality, feud coverage, and aggregated blockers/warnings across the whole show.

Gimmick Matches for PPV & Special Events
Stipulations finally matter. A full library — Steel Cage, Ladder, Tables, TLC, Hell in a Cell, I Quit, Last Man Standing, Iron Man, First Blood, No DQ, Falls Count Anywhere, Lumberjack — gated to the right show kinds, with real heat ceilings, injury risk, and storyline payoff multipliers. Try a blowoff gimmick on a Tuesday TV taping and the booker yells at you.

Custom-Only Rivals & The 1985 Territory Pack
Strict Custom Mode now actually stays strict — no procedural rival promotions sneak into your imported world. A new 'Generate Rival Promotion' button on the Rivals panel lets you spawn one on demand. Plus a hand-built 200-wrestler 1985 roster CSV (16 region-locked promotions, managers, commentators, future legends as free agents) and a 48-title championship CSV with accurate July '85 champions.

Guest Mode, Gendered Names & Free Agent Filters
Skip the email signup with a one-click Continue as Guest button (with a clear warning that clearing browser data wipes your save). Auto-generated names are now gender-aware — no more 'Tina The Million Dollar Man'. Free agents show MEN/WOMEN badges and there's a new Division filter for scouting the market.

Roster Import, Era-Aware Names & Faster Calendar
Roster imports preserve your real promotion name, gender, and stats — no more random workers padding your locker room. Pick which company to start as when your file has multiple. Auto-generated talent now sounds like the era (Magnificent Murphy in 1985, indie names in 2024). Calendar gets year/month dropdowns so mobile users stop scrolling forty years.

Promotion Tiers & The Climb
The biggest progression update yet. Climb from Indie → Regional → National → Global across ~100 shows. Tier-up cinematics, reputation decay, roster caps, scaled free agents, gated sponsors & networks, smarter rivals, and an endgame Legacy dashboard with a Hall of Fame.

Long-Term Storyline Planner
Plot a feud across 4–12 weeks, pin it to a milestone show, and let the planner auto-fill the build. Choose Loose for soft guidance or Locked-In for real stakes — bigger payoffs, real penalties for missed beats.

Persistent Wrestler Arcs
Roster members now live multi-week character arcs — heel turns, redemptions, vendettas, comebacks, veteran swansongs. Ten arc types, three escalating beats each, real face/heel flips and stat payoffs when they land.

Seasonal & Calendar Rhythm
Nine in-game seasons now shape attendance (±22%), heat stickiness, and ambient buzz. Awards Season makes Year-End MOTY a real conversation. A new Season Badge in the header tells you exactly what's active.

Persistent World Threads
Multi-week background storylines now unfold across the territory — mystery investors, brewing scandals, hot rookie buzz, retirement tours, territory wars. Slow-burn payoffs that span weeks, not single news blips.

A Living World
Background events drop into your news feed every week — wrestlers spotted at dinner, hostile rival shoot interviews, paper rankings, backstage friction. Plus a new 'Around the Territory' widget on World showing what every rival is doing right now.

The Daily Briefing
Mobile users now open to a swipeable Daily Briefing — Top Story, Locker Mood, Money Watch, Tonight's Card — instead of a wall of KPIs. Built for one-handed thumb scrolling.

Mobile Nav & Haptics
A new 'More' drawer in the mobile bottom bar opens a grouped grid of all 25 tabs — one tap to jump anywhere. Plus haptic pulses on title changes, ★80+ matches, and bankruptcy warnings.

Sponsors & Media Pressure
Sponsorships are now active deals with brand clauses (Family-Friendly, Edgy, Main-Event Driven, Ratings Bonus) you can violate. TV networks finally enforce their rating demands and drop you after three warnings.

Mobile, Search & Shortcuts
Card-style mobile layouts for Booking and Roster, a global ⌘K search across every wrestler, storyline, and show, J/K row navigation in tables, and undo for accidental cuts and retirements.

Contracts, Reimagined
The one-click renewal is gone. Negotiate trait-driven demands, pick from three contract types, watch rival bids roll in during the renewal window, and pay the price when you violate a no-job clause. Tuned with a 30-year headless sim.
