Re: Version 0.12.30
Stop asking for stable release. A stable release wont make .13 show up any faster. It just stops fixes/updates that are done while working on .13 from being backported. So please keep up with the updates on .12 devs. There is no advantage in delaying them. Also it seems to me the hash check on mods...

One question: Is it currently saved as a bitmap then? If this is a yes I might have an idea on paper in front of me I drew up in a few minutes. Edit: Is similar to ratchetfreak's idea http://i.imgur.com/zNqZFbP.jpg?1 Sorry for the weird format, the other side is a receipt for my pizza order :lol:

Re: [MOD 0.12.20+] Misanthrope 0.3.1 -- Better Biter Mechanics
After I upgrade to 0.3.1, the FPS/UPS goes down a bit(3 to 15 UPS/FPS lower) for a while every 5-10 seconds. It seems the scriptupdate for Misanthrope uses a lot of time every time this happens. Not sure if this will stabilize because it needs to update all biters first or that the script for 0.3.1 ...

Re: [MOD 0.12.x] Menu++ 0.1.0
Looks like some good improvements. However the download comes out as Menu%2B%2B_0.1.0.zip and the game expects it to be Menu++_0.1.0.zip. It only requires a rename of the file, but it would be nice if you could fix that

Re: Friday Facts #128 - Back down to earth
Lubricant sounds good! As well as that it can't be places perpendicular to the belt direction, and possibly only from chest to belt and belt to chest. With that, I can see it be a valuable addition.

There's practical limits on the game map. But can be considered infinite for the human experience. Because no way are you ever getting there while playing the game normally.
