*** CUSTOMER REVIEWS ***

* Reviews can be checked on the store computer.

* Thornuts starts with an Overall Store Rating of 5 Stars.

* Customers begin to arrive after 4 o'clock.

* Each customer comes in the door with 3 Stars.

* Each of the following will subtract a star:

  - Turning off the lights.

  - Taking the customer's order. (Necessary once per order!)

  - Talking to the customer with your hands full.

  - Checking the wrong display case for the customer's donut.

  - Restocking workstations.

  - Clock movement.

  - Baking.

  - Each messy table.

* Each of the following will add a star:

  - Brewing. (Customers love fresh coffee!)

  - Taking the correct donut from the correct display case.

  - Placing the correct donut on the tray.

  - Placing the correct drink on the tray.

  - Completing an order with a Holiday Donut.

  - Completing an order with a Holiday Drink.

* Ideally, you should take their order at the register (-1), find the right case for their donut(+1), make their drink properly(+1), put everything on a tray(+1), and they are on their way!

* When a customer picks up their order, their review (0-5 depending on their customer experience) is added to the Overall Store Rating, and the sum is divided by two, for the new Overall Store Rating.

* All customer reviews after 8 o'clock count double, for overtime hours.

* This means that any 0 will cut the Overall Store Rating in half! Keep those customers happy!

* Each shift finished with an Overall Store Rating of 5 Stars will reward you with a random Incentive Card, which can be used before the beginning of any shift!

*** PHONE ORDERS ***

* Phone orders now come in once per day, between 1 o'clock and 3 o'clock.

* You will have to make two random kinds of donuts - or two batches of the same random kind!

* You cannot take from the display case!

* Box your donuts at the phone counter!

* The customer will arrive between 9 o'clock and 11 o'clock.

* You must have the boxed donuts on the counter next to the righthand register by the time the customer comes to collect!

  - Failing will result in an automatic loss of a star, from the overall store reviews!

  - Succeeding will result in an automatic gain of a star, for the overall store reviews!

* This is how you can get back up to five stars, if you get a few bad reviews!



*** SEASONAL PROMOTIONS ***

* Each month, there will be a seven-day Seasonal Promotion, centered on a Holiday.

* At the start of your shift, on each of these days, you will receive a Seasonal Box through the Loading Dock, which is used to stock the Rainbow Counter.

* Stocking the Rainbow Counter will also apply seasonal decorations to the store, and provide you with a fashionable seasonal uniform!

* During each Seasonal Promotion, Thornuts will offer a Holiay Donut and Holiday Drink, which the customers may order. They are made at the Rainbow Counter.

* Each Seasonal Drink and Donut on an order adds an extra Star to the Customer Review - this makes Holidays a little more happy for everybody!

*** CHANGELOG VERSION H ***

* Changed graphics for Display Donuts, to show rows of donuts.

* Changed "Take Baker's Box", "Bake All", "Cool All", "Glaze all", and all three "Order All" options on the computer, to "Gold Options". These require at least a 4 star overall store rating, to use.

* Changed "Supply Orders" to "Orders", on the computer.

* Added Holiday uniforms.

* Added "Bake All" option to Sheet Counter.

* Added "Cool All" option to Cooling Rack.

* Added "Glaze All" option to Glazing Station.

* Added "Order All" option to Frozen Donut orders.

* Added random messes left on tables, and random stock missing, if the overall store rating drops to 2, or lower.

* Added Game Over condition if the overall store rating drops to 0.

* Fixed bug that was making false customer appear at 4am, and stand in the doorway, only to be overwritten by the actual customer when they randomly arrive; this bug has persisted since before I thought it was fixed on version F.

* Fixed seasonal decorations, so they do not have to be put back up during consecutive seasonal promotion days.
