Restocking settings

Restocking settings look changed after loading a save

Update #4 · source checked October 10, 2026

The short answer

Update 4 documents a display issue: after loading a save, Venue Management Settings can appear changed while the saved venue parameters remain in effect. The developer says the issue was fixed for the next patch; that statement does not establish that the next patch is installed.

Do not assume a visual change alone means your budget or target was reset.

What the developer actually confirmed

The known issue concerns the settings UI when loading a save. The official notes distinguish the displayed values from the parameters stored for the venue, and say the stored parameters remain.

This is narrower than saying every restocking problem is cosmetic. Missing stock, money changes or a repeated zero-stock objective still require their own checks.

Compare observations before changing the configuration

  1. Record the game build and the affected venue.
  2. Keep a note of the target and daily budget you selected before loading.
  3. Compare the shopping list and actual stock behavior after loading.
  4. If you have a genuine shortage, inspect the ingredient, vendor availability, budget and deliveries.
  5. Keep a screenshot of the displayed mismatch for a reproducible report.

What this page does not establish

The patch does not provide a universal workaround sequence, a guaranteed way to read the hidden stored parameter, or permission to assume an arbitrary later build is fixed. The shopping list is a useful corroborating check, not proof that the settings screen cannot have another issue.

Avoid overwriting your only save to investigate a display mismatch. If you choose to set a new value, treat that as an intentional configuration change and record it, rather than repeatedly re-entering values and losing the comparison.

When to continue troubleshooting

If only the display differs and stock supports your menu, retain the versioned known-issue explanation. If ingredients still reach zero, continue with manager restocking diagnosis. A later patch’s fix must be checked against its own notes before this Update 4 boundary changes.
