    Interesting to see that they've avoided the route Space Exploration went down of needing to carefully manage signals, requesters and inserters to fill rockets.

    These recent FFF posts have reignited my interest in Factorio, and gotten me so excited for this expansion! Such a well-crafted game, a true engineering marvel in its own right.
