Cute. The first Staff reply is only to the poster who is actually praising this change and not one of the complainers.

I've read this before, and i'm not sure how you people do it. But this is exactly how the game already behaves. The "can't put this item here" messages only pops up if the item you're holding is not assigned to any filter slots.

*fiddle* *fiddle*

Well, in the quickbar anyway, for filtered main ...

Allow for Tree/Stone Hand mining when holding a blueprint/blueprint book in your hands. Too many times there was this one tree that I wanted to get rid off and I forgot to deselect the blueprint in my hand. Why is it actually forbidden to use the mine function when holding a blueprint?

This is the problem that I could see could be easily solved:

Okay. So early to mid game, you middle-mouse click dedicate a slot in your toolbelt to specific items. Making it impossible that another item jumps in. That slot is now Reserved to that time. You lock it down with the sky-blue box.

So ...

YAY!!!
They will be adding Angel's/Bob's Infinite Ores setting option!

Progress on engine modernisation (Posila)
The rewrite of the rendering framework goes well. We are at the point where the game looks exactly the same (with minor fixes to line rendering) as our main 0.17 branch, and the only major thing that is ...

ugh... Fluid optimalisation last on the list for 0.17+ ? Really?
So Nuclear is useless as before? Thanks devs! *half-joking*

It's not useless on smaller late-game bases, but it's still way too easy.
I wouldn't mind it being harder to build. Like for example making the 'concrete' in the Reactors ...

Angel?
I think it should be possible to re-melt plates back into ingots.

Yes, also rewind wires back into coils
with the coils, you are cutting them apart.
No. Make it possible to melt ANY metal/material/plate back into its pure (aka: Periodic Table Element) base ingots. Wires, plates, coils ...

Angel?
I think it should be possible to re-melt plates back into ingots.

If you want people to not refund the game within 30 minutes because of boredom and confusion, why not start them out with a tiny well-built base? Have some missing things like a row of 3 missing belt pieces, a few missing electricity poles and a few missing inserters.
That way, they see how ...

I had to roll back some sprite changes i've been working on, they aren't ready yet. Some cool animated buildings YuokiTani

Will we soon see the new sprites?! YAY!

I have a solution for part of the list.

Fist . Have there be the space ship wrecks you landed in strewn close to you on the map. Based on pre-start settings you can set a variety of resources to be present in the wrecks.
These ship derelicts can be ...

Just don't manage to lose important things and hardware while moving to the new office and be careful.

What if you could modify WHERE exactly a train would stop at a Train Stop? One wagon after it or two wagons before it or something else?

Did you know that in Real Life later steam locomotives and modern engines can drive in reverse as fast as forwards (minus aerodynamic drag)?

This would allow Two-Headed trains be as fast as One-Headed ...

The choice to go a darker gray is what really draws me to yours, since items stand out a lot more than their vanilla counterpart. Belts are now less of an eyesore and I can see items more clearly, so thank you for that.

My pleasure.

Something is very wonky. My Angel/Bob game Violet and Green ...

Also, allow Belt Loaders for the game.

Something is very wonky. My Angel/Bob game Violet and Green belts do not fit the color scheme of the corresponding Beltbox. Green to Violet. Violet to Green. What is going on?

Will you please also consider adding a bit more lane management in the game? Splitting two lanes of 1 belt onto two belts with splitter options (instead of slow inserters), and maybe a way to swap two lanes of 1 belt.

they have given us the tools. ;)

Nope ...
