Excellent idea (like anything including more bottleneck-mod‘ish features in Vanilla) both the proposed tooltip and the visual representation in alt mode.

... Factory damaging acid rain and darker/greyer daytime colors in areas with a lot of pollution in the air (also impacting solar panel output and player health?), or ground tiles shifting their color palette into the grey once polluted - like the trees dieing - would support that narrative better....

Hey guys, looks like a lot of work went into this The new day time colours are a lot clearer and easier for my tired eyes, especially the map. However, I find the blue nighttime is making it way harder to see. Even before this update you couldn’t see anything at nighttimes, at least in plain Vanill...

I do like the new colors, making the game more vibrant and pleasing to the eye, without loosing the pollution aspect. The bluish glow in the night is magnificant. I wonder how that’s going to interact with the glowing pipes. The only complaint, at least judging from the juxtaposed images, some items...

I am very much in favor of this proposition, modifying blueprints currently is highly annoying, because the necessity of manually having to change the name an icons. A update feature is needed, the obvious side effect is the ability to create blueprints in the editor from the ground up. Implementing...

Automation seems to be still locked at 86%, the new designs are certainly a nice addition.

I do very much like the new style and the cleaned up informations, looking forward how they do fit in the overall game. Maybe by linking related tooltips (e.g. roboport and powerarmor) we can establish some kind of in game factoriopedia for uninterrupted factory growth.

Following the recent notable increase in consumption of walls and laser turrets, the biters seems to stress my defenses adaequatly more. I guess I'll have to play without biters starting from now, or at least to tune them significantly down - and hurry to get the achievements I lack before I upgrad...

+1 blueprints are such an important gameplay element and at least for me replacing single entity placement to a high degree. The possibility of a simple programmable deconstruction/ bp-chain could put much more emphasis on design in outposting, rather than more or less manually repeating the process...

Who else thought of biters when reading "the great bug war"?

My artillery is a little bit to far reaching to be considered with pesky annoyances like that
A Vacation well deserved, I would say.

Congratulations, reading about the major (not to mention the countless not explicitly described) changes again, just shows, how much work and effort you guys put into .17. The result is worth it, great work!

„Professional game journalism“ a contradiction in term.

it's not only feasible but already possible.

...and different from the concept presented in the fff. Dose newly laid landfill look the same on this map?
Since landfill is and definitely was classified as just normal Terrain in previous versions, the minimap seems to behave nominally.

One step closer to stable, well done
Rich text for save games, is a great QoL improvement.

Excellent idea, there is the gap of potentially using night vision on modular armor but having not researched batteries yet. For consistency reasons multi tired nv could be a thing. Mk I with generous internal buffer and the old greenish optic. Mk II as it is now.

Most of the suggested difficult options would be quite incompatible with the lower tiers and therefore make multiplayer matchmaking harder and more exclusive. I even think, that newer players would be more hinderd by such changes, too get in touch or learn from more expirienced players. Although hav...
