I just LOVE the look of the 0.1 pipes, much better than the current ones

This should also be a feature with LAN games. Instead of telling the players that their game version is different, it just shows nothing, leaving the players wondering.

The part that turns kinetic energy into electricity stays roughly the same, but now you have to mount in on top of a very tall structure that has to withstand extreme weather, and capture a large amount of energy from wind without breaking. As it's a beginner power production, it doesn't have to be...

Wouldn't wind turbine make more sense? In real-life it should be easier to build a turbine than a heat-powered generator. But it isn't. The part that turns kinetic energy into electricity stays roughly the same, but now you have to mount in on top of a very tall structure that has to withstand extr...

Range circles would be really neat

To notice the effect try to build a really big storage facility (50 tank for example, don't ask me why - it's another subject to discuss and really have many applications, i.e. hot water accumulator) To mangle with words: Because everything in the game has to scale. If it's "ok" with [1-2...

At least Refineries, Trains and Radars also have names. I think there was something more, but I don't remember.

Looking forward to a release of this mod, I'd like to give it a try!

In the current system, it's extremely slow to fill in the last ~400 units or drain the last ~400 units from a tank. There is no pressure to work with or against. A high tank would allow for quick drain, or to fill a pipe to full capacity without the tank having to be full. If you want to quickly em...

You need to research Steel before you can smelt iron into steel.

when there's 1000-5000 that's unacceptable. Does that mean it will be possible to dispatch robots at a higer rate per tick than the current limit? If not, why worry about it? You can have alerts for multiple things going off at once. Missing robots, missing materials, multiple players and so on. Th...

How could drawing a few alerts ever use enough processing time to worry about it? They're usually not present, usually done within a couple minutes, and don't need to be updated every tick.

One option would be to not draw overlapping triangles, and instead draw a counter on them that counts the amount of triangles not drawn +1.

The first release in months, and it fixes what, 3 of the dozens of reported bugs? Lots of bug were fixed but only in 0.15 (no ETA yet) ( see here for list of resolved bug ), this release exist only to address critical bug From my (a consumer/customer's) point of view, they are not fixed until a fix...

What does that mean for AMD users?

Autosave in general should not disturb the game-play at all. :) What really bugs me about the pause is, that the game ignores clicks that happens during the pause. Usually, that means having to interrupt and fix the missing clicks. An example would be if you place inserters, and you miss one becaus...

I'd like to hi-jack and ask if we will get crisp pictures at higher zoom levels in the future? That would make it so much easier to recognize/see things at lower zoom levels, as you get more visual detail to distinguish things. Currently playing the game with high levels of SSAA for some smoothness,...
