Re: Display the max distance that an underground belts and pipes can go before placement
Seems like a toggle that could be put in the box next to the quickbar, along with the exoskeleton and personal roboport toggles. Definitely should be an option for people who want it (probably by default, I say as someone who wants it) with an option to turn it off. I bet seeing a max length preview...

In particular, they allow you to transport fluids in the car. This ...

Re: A Deeper Look into Combat Robotics
I think a couple relatively minor changes would put the Personal Laser Defenses in a much better place. Treat lasers as fire type for purposes of damage resistance Split the dps into a lot more, smaller shots. Maybe 4x? It doesn't really make sense for a personal defense system to be a top-tier offe...
