v0.6.1 is live now — your report is fixed.
What changed:
• 5 starter contracts at game start (all from Istanbul, so there's always something to do)
• Contract pool now refills correctly after each delivery
• Bedford TK 7.5t can no longer be the first truck (Ford Transit Mk2 recommended)
• Removed a tutorial flag that could permanently block contract generation
Refresh the game and try again — the empty pool shouldn't happen anymore.
And thank you for the detailed report. Playtesters like you who document bugs step-by-step are genuinely how this game gets better. If you keep finding things, please keep posting them here.
