Thanks for adding a feature I didn't know I wanted for a very specific piece of hardware I didn't know I wanted either.

I didn't sleep until April again, did I?

Meh, I'm through with them.

Erm...

I really hope Factorio team got paid for this. So at least something good will come out of implementing this feature. Like, more money for developing the game.

This didn't change anything on my keyboard except change the color to orange while the map loaded, then went back to the rainbow scrolling effect. Is this supposed to do something in particular, IE highlight action keys in certain windows etc? (Yes i have a chroma)

sad that a game dev has to patch a game for Razer's garbage hardware.

It should not go back to your custom settings until you exit the game(or when you lock the screen).
So there is probably a bug. If you can test how the other animations work, please do and post a detailed bug report. Also be sure to update Razer Synapse.

If not every second even thinking about implementing stuff like that is a waste of resources.

Same here:

[Twinsen]

Yeah, we will make a new release soon.

[Dixi]

Could be nice to hear when we will see .16 release. At least a month. Or dev's thinks it's a bad idea to announce until it's 100% ready?

I don't think they will publish an estimated release date until it's very close, as there is too much room for error and potential for disappointment.

That said, my own guess is somewhere around end of January to middle of February 2018.

This patch added a feature pretty useless for most players and inrroduced a graphics bug. That is pretty strange for the factorio devs. Did you guys get recently bpught by EA? Will we have to buy crystals to unlock electric mining?

That's a little unfair towards them. I'm fairly certain that adding this gave them some publicity from Razer Chroma (and perhaps some money), which helps further development. The Windows release of 15.38 was corrupted and they're actively working to figure out what caused it and fix it. They're human too (probably) - they make mistakes occasionally.
