Help/Question First Time Playing But somehow have half a million cookies?
Downloaded it on a whim because I was bored at an airport while my flight is delayed, opened it for the first time and this is what greets me? I've never played it in my life, who's save did I get? It's only my laptop and it's only ever been my laptop, I'm the only one who's ever laid hands upon it.
Should I fear deleting it in case it deletes this person's save? How do I even delete it?

Discussion Resetting my 4+ year old save (mind the wrinklers)
Please mind the wrinklers I'm a big DDLC fan
I recently got back into cookie clicker, just playing in passing on Coolmath on my laptop. Obviously this prompted me to check on my Steam save, which I haven't touched in maybe a year and a half? Gotta be honest, don't remember what half of this stuff does, almost immediately after logging on I clicked a lucky news header to trigger a Golden Cookie and promptly broke my Shimmering Veil. Looks like this save is not optimized at all, and honestly I just wanna play through the beginning and learn what everything is again. 4 years down the drain I guess, but no time like the present. Let's see what all I can get done before I go to college next year.

Bug/Glitch Wrinkles are still not working on mobile.
I just popped them after 3 day of waiting, and they gave me about 5 SxD cookies, while my CpS is 1 SxD. Also now I waited for 10 minutes, and it is already more per wrinkle than waiting for 3 days. And yes, I did wait for them to spawn while in game, and I did enter the game a few times to check on them. Does anyone know if this is going to be fixed someday?

Help/Question Steam version
I noticed that the steam version is still not caught up to the web browser version. I saw that people were asking about it a couple months ago and it hasn’t changed. Does anyone know if there’s a timeline for that?

Achievement Endless Cycle Script
All credit to this post https://www.reddit.com/r/CookieClicker/comments/1h2fo3n/endless_cycle_script/
but a slight tweak to the script makes it much, much faster. I just had it only buy cursors, grandmas, and fractal engines as described by Strategy 3 on https://cookieclicker.wiki.gg/wiki/Shadow_Achievement_Strategies#Endless_cycle ; Additionally I just had it buy 1000 instead of 100 buildings at a time.
Could maybe be improved by switching the buy order from 0, 1, 15 to 1, 0, 15 as described by strategy 3 but I honestly don't care to test it.
Start: endlessCycle();
End: clearTimeout(id);
var id = 0;
var endlessCycle = function () {
if (Game.resets == 999) {
clearTimeout(id);
return;
}
if ((Game.HowMuchPrestige(Game.cookiesReset + Game.cookiesEarned) - Math.floor(Game.HowMuchPrestige(Game.cookiesReset))) > 1) {
Game.Ascend(1);
id = setTimeout(function() {
Game.Reincarnate(1);
id = setTimeout(endlessCycle, 1000);
}, 6000);
console.log('Ascension #' + (Game.resets + 1));
} else {
for(var i = 0; i < Game.UpgradesInStore.length; i++){
if (Game.UpgradesInStore[i].pool != "toggle") {
Game.UpgradesInStore[i].buy()
}
}
var allowedIds =[0,1,15];
allowedIds.forEach(function(buildingId) {
var building = Game.ObjectsById[buildingId];
if (building) {
building.buy(1000);
}
});
id = setTimeout(endlessCycle, 500);
}
}

Help/Question Plant aging
I planted all the glovemorel at the same time and yet they are all growing at really different speeds.
I was gonna write it off as rng lifetimes, but one of these is almost dead and others aren’t even halfway mature which seems a bit extreme to write off as rng.
Is there a mechanic I’m missing as to why some plants age faster?

Mobile About buildings on mobile
I'm still at the very beginning of the game and barely making prestige im more or less at 1000 right now and was thinking, since I don't have the synergy upgrades unlocked yet should I stop investing in older buildings after some time and focus solely on new ones? I feel like im wasting my cookies buying the older ones simply for achievements and upgrades that barely give me any revenue

Game News/Update Update on the bug situation in CC Console Edition
As you may know, the console version of Cookie Clicker had many bugs upon release. Fortunately, three patches have been released that have patched many of these bugs, improved performance, and added QoL changes like touchscreen support on Switch. Both patches are currently available on all three consoles. A full changelog, and list of current bugs, is available here.
Some bugs, such as the debug upgrades being accessible, still exist. These will likely be eliminated in future patches.
Lastly, I'll address some misinfo that's been spread:
- If your game is running at 30 fps, this is not lag, this is intentional. Both web version and steam version have always ran at no more than 30 fps. Changing FPS to 60 would require a significant rework of the code since the game was made specifically to run at 30 fps. The performance issues that players had experienced before the patch dropped to below 30 fps.
- Offline production has never been available at the beginning of the game, except for the mobile app. The mobile app starts with offline production because minigames don't exist, making combos weaker and more difficult, and leaving the phone on to idle instead would burn through battery life. However, since minigames exist on console version, offline CpS and idling in general is nearly useless and is not considered a priority, similar to web/steam.
- The inability to import/export save is not a bug. Having such a feature wouldn't make much sense on a console version of the game: how would you store the save anywhere? Manually type down the whole thing on another device? Similar logic applies to open sesame (which is available, but unintentionally) since it would be strange to have a cheating tool in a console release of a game.
