Hi,

I've encountered another bug that's somewhat similar to this one. If you pick the Alternative campaign and turn the competitors off, the game merges both campaigns for some reason. The CPUs are from the Default campaign, but the companies are from the Alternative campaign (Inlet becomes Incel, Morotola becomes Okina, IAM becomes Twinkle etc.). However, because the Alternative campaign has less companies than the Default campaign, some companies (from what I know Element, Sekkusu and IMD) are in a weird state of somewhat existing. Their CPUs still show up in the news, but the company "releasing" them is called 0, in the Market tab they also show up, but their part of the pie chart is broken, but in the Companies tab they don't exist.

Here are some screenshots (please ignore my Sony-tier product naming):

Maybe it's because you don't have enough CPU xp? Make more CPUs and try again.

Okay, thanks!

That's good to know, however some milestones are extremely difficult to achieve, namely the 1GHz Mark in the 'Hardware Tycoon' campaign (I'm pretty sure the only way to achieve it is to spam out CPUs to get CPU level up). It would be great if it was made a little easier (maybe by delaying the release date of the Inlet Tetrum 7 by one month).

I was playing the game with competitors turned off, but out of nowhere I got an event about the Inlet 16i 1616. I then played for a little while longer and other processors also started getting released. It was like the campaign just started in 1982 and continued on normally. I did encounter this issue before, but I thought it was fixed (when I played on the same version in the same browser but with infinite money and me releasing only one CPU in 2009 no competitors appeared). I'm playing on Firefox (version 96.0.3) by the way.
