i canot express, in any humanly available words, how much i have been anticipating this FFF post. thank you for finally giving up on the (badly) simulated realism of fluids. lets be real, conveyorbelts have never been realistic at all, carrying up to 8 buildings with a size of 3x3 on a 1x1 size tile...

thats an interesting take on the farming mechanic. i guess its better to have a harvester harvest plants in the "wild", compared to having a farm as a building, because the scale of the plants in the farm would not match their counterparts in the wild(unless the farmbuilding was huge). the...

wow i didnt know that i needed this feature, but now that i saw it.... how did i ever do it without it?!

bro i want that building-construction animation everywhere, not just on the platform! its so good looking, feels like im playing old time rts again!!

I am super excited about the quality mechanic and i am definitely going to rush +1 medium electric Poles asap for that sweet both sides of an assembler-reach hehe. it makes me think that maybe we will be getting "quality"-enemies aswell, depending on difficulty/evolution level etc. imagine...
