Nice work on the icons but the logistics chests aren't right. The passive and storage should be switched.

True, noticed that too. Could be confusing to new players...

It's not correct... The Passive Provider chest can't draw from the Active Provider chest.

That's what would be more closer to reality on how they work:

Are the molecules supposed to make sense? 2nd column 4th from top is clearly ethanol, and I don't remember that being part of the tech tree. Maybe that's a new feature coming in .13, party with the biters :mrgreen:

they were already told, and they made the change, they must have used the wrong rendering for the FFF's image

Im sorry for being picky about the molucles yet again :lol:

But Ethanol(?), atleast thats the molecule that could only be :)
Have one hydrogen(1 white ball) connected to the wrong carbon atom(black ball)
Basically 1 carbon may only create four connections, not any more, or any less. Keep in mind that when two or three lines goes between two atoms then that still means 2 lines = 2 bounds 3 lines = 3 bounds.

So for this molecule it is neccecary to move one hydrogen atom from the middle carbon, the one that already got 3 hydrogens. And then move it to the last carbon, because it only got two hydrogen atoms connected. Also to spice things up a little. Angle does matter if you want to make it correct
^_^
Also doesnt it look way cooler like this correct way :D?

Also i still get the correct coffenie molecule ready for use ;)!

Notice the extra bound.

Because il not stop until its correct :lol: !
Logo
Noticed the told change in FFF #111 so il continue to use my signature ^_^
Thanks for listening to our suggestions, devs :D!
I would jump of joy if we could specify which tiles spawned in a surfaces

Wow... I don't know that I can choose one favorite from all of those. :o They are very well done, can't wait until they are in the game!

Also the search feature in the crafting menu/item list is amazing. Definitely a good addition especially when using mods as mentioned. :)
Keep up the great work guys!
