Re: Friday Facts #375 - Quality

I have only two questions.

1) Since quality is supposed to be "expansion only" content, what stop someone from making a mod that enables/re-implements it in vanilla game?

API hooks into train pathfinding

TL;DR
Way for modders to inject their pieces of code into train pathfinder or into the way train pathfinder graph is being built.

[Request] Logistics Trains

Hello,

The idea is quite simple. Logistics-enabled train with cargo wagons as inventory. Functionality similar to personal roboport.
