I wasn't expecting it to actually work in a game. :P

It was just relevant to the APNGs.

Ah hehe ;) just wanted to make sure nobody got misunderstandings ,)

 I really wish a game like Factorio would exist, except in 3D like KSP. I want to build my factories piece by piece, etc.... heck, KFP (Kerbal Factory Program) would be awesome.... and it'd be 100% moddable. Everyone can script with a simple language and logical production steps would result in actual objects. Simulating welding and screws and everything ;P


You should try real life building. That's what you're describing.

Wha... no it's not ;) In real life you need materials, tools and a clue what you are doing....

I want a GAME about that ;p Like what KSP is to space-flight.

I got this game last weekend, and I have done little else since.  My RSS feed has been neglected.  Emails are piling up.  The grass is past a much needed mowing.  This game is seriously addicting.  There is a very good sense of satisfaction from improving the output of one component or another, or getting train routing up and running, or better optimizing the logistical robot network.  It also has some pretty in-depth mod support, of which there are many.  The crazy thing is, this is still beta.  There are several things on the roadmap including multiplayer.  This has been a seriously good purchase that I would recommend to anyone.
