This update is intended to go live shortly but will be tested in preview first.

Brief Rundown

This update adds a new Production Prestige system for late-game progression across production lines.

Players can now prestige eligible productions once they:

• own all required workstations for that line, and
• have completed the leadership course "How to Rule the World: A Guide to Leadership".

Each prestige:

• resets owned workstations + assigned narcos for that production line,
• increases one selected upgrade track by 1 (max 5 per track), and
• increases Street Crimes assignment capacity globally by +200 narcos per prestige action.

Detailed Prestige Impact

1) Prestige Availability and Gating

A player can prestige a production when all are true:

• production type supports prestige,
• player owns at least that line’s nominal cap (owned >= totalCountCap),
• at least one track on that line is below max,
• required course completed

2) Tracks by Production Type

• Alcohol Still (1): Production Boost, Efficiency, Premium Production
• Weed Field (2): Production Boost, Efficiency, Premium Production
• Cocaine Factory (3): Production Boost, Efficiency, Premium Production
• Doctors Office (5): Production Boost, Premium Production (no Efficiency track)
• Street Crimes (6): no prestige tracks

3) Track Effects on Output

Applied during production cron:

• Production Boost (+20% per level, up to +100%)

  • multiplies cash profit output,
  • multiplies item-output volume scale.

• Efficiency (-10% supply requirement per level, up to -50% at level 5)

  • lowers required supply consumed each cycle,
  • improves production reliability when supply is tight.

4) Rep Scaling After Prestige

Workstation rebuy gating scales with prestige depth on that production line:

effectiveRepPerWorkstation = repRequirement * (totalPrestiges + 1)

5) Street Crimes Capacity (Anti-Idle Narcos)

To minimize idle narcos after repeated prestige resets:

• every prestige action on any line adds +200 Street Crimes assignment capacity,
• bonus scales from total prestige count across all production lines,
• intended outcome: fully-prestiged players can keep narcos allocated.

6) UI/UX Changes

Production cards now display:

• prestige level and per-track levels,
• prestige eligibility / unmet requirements,
• course-gate messaging when locked,
• supply requirement display reflecting efficiency impact,
• dynamic effective narco capacity per line.

what about the premium production?

This is a good chance

@Shippuden

vaelinn: Premium production increases the drop rate of the rarer drops, in the case of the coke factory it allows you to control more of how much coke vs tainted coke you get using a slider that gives more control the more levels of the prestige you have up to 100%

The cost to unlock workstations does not get more expensive, but the reputation required to unlock the next workstation does get more expensive.

Alcohol Still — reputation to own all 12 workstations

Prestige | Rep per workstation step | Total rep for all 12
---------|--------------------------|----------------------
    0    |        +80,000           |       960,000
    1    |       +160,000           |     1,920,000
    2    |       +240,000           |     2,880,000
    3    |       +320,000           |     3,840,000
    4    |       +400,000           |     4,800,000
    5    |       +480,000           |     5,760,000

Does the uni course for 20% extra now not apply?

Are the business courses needed in order to be eligible for prestige?
