Select used mods on game creation.

Rather than having to manually change the mods loaded when switching between two different maps which genned with different mods, how about moving mods to the create game menu, and refactor the Mods menu into displaying the currently available mods, opening the folder in which they should be added, ...

Auto-move the avatar when trying to build out of range.

It's a simple enough suggestion, it could even be a togglable option. If you click on a valid build spot, but you're out of range, instead of simply buzzing an error, the avatar should path to the nearest spot in range of the desired build spot. it would be much more convienient than clicking, heari...

Re: GIF Mini Tutorials!

One confusing bit is how the center placements favoring left is a relative left, but you used it differently earlier. Explicitly say north and west when you're using absolute directions, not up and left. Ideas for more gifs: Inserters prefer to pull from the far lane. Long-armed inserters pull and p...
