Yep, this would be very good to have.

Right now, according to Therenas, there is not much more useful information provided by this error, so on his suggestion i'm requesting a change to the error to be a bit more verbose.

I'd have preferred a number of pipe+tank entities instead of an area (or maybe I missed something crucial).

this is a very good post

This Is going to make huge defense walls with flamethrower turrets much more expensive to run and set up.



Good. Flamethrowers have been extremely OP for years so I think making them more difficult is nothing but a good thing.


That's a good and valid sentiment, but making them more ...

Honestly the extents thing sounds like it will be really annoying for bigger bases.

It may be a change aimed at long distance pipes and trains, but when building a base in a mod with a lot of different fluids and big bases, it means that low-throughput utility fluids suddenly need double-pump ...

demolishers on death just poofing out of existence feels very disappointing. would be much more interesting if they left wreckage behind or could be partially destroyed to slow them down or weaken their healing

those enemy designs might trigger trypophobia for some people. hope y'all double-check that instead of just make an area that's unplayable for some people

the player list and "view player remotely" might also use a "view player's remote view remotely" function

Since they have been releasing some bugfixes for 1.1 during the last year, I can only assume that they have good reason to not do all the bug fixes reported in FFFs. So what "sounds" like it should be easy to apply to 1.1 proboly isn't actually that easy... Would be my guess any way.

if it isn't ...

my complaint isn't even remotely about that though

including backward compatibility could lead towards game size bloat understandable concern, but in this case simply not applicable, since it would require no code additions as you described whatsoever

don't complain so your prescription is indeed "shut the fuck up", and i'd invite you to do some ...

This really isn't Wube's problem. There's a difference between supporting mods and supporting -a- mod. You're asking them to support a mod, really, not modding in general. Individual mods are to be maintained by their maintainer, not Wube. There is no expectation for improvements to be backported ...

v2 is free right? It's only the expansion that will cost money, so everyone should get these improvements, if I understood correctly.

the problem is that a lot of ...

I must switch back and forth between mod groups a lot because i work on YARM and it is extremely frustrating that everytime i do, my shortcut bar is just trashd and randomized.

I was using this to combine bioindustries with pymods.

It would've been nice to have some kind of big fat warning on the mod update page that that was just completely ripped out and dead for the moment, and a note as to which version of the mod was the last one which supported what.

maybe make it an option before the next major version?
