I'd like to thank everyone for still sticking it out. Development has had some setbacks the last year or so. However with a new job which enables me more time to work on CF I hope to introduce quests and subterranean maps, along with the all new power mechanics soon.
There is also alot of work to be done regarding multiplayer and this may be broken on some maps.

I'm posting daily updates on the rework for the vanilla mode for a more comprehensive experience such as:
New conveyors:
New machines:
Updated creative mode:
Multiplayer and More
I'm just going to slide this in here...
After months of development I'm happy to bring you co-op Multiplayer (only 2 players at the moment) and the start of an additional factory.
Please note that previous saved games will not work with this update.
Physics Update
Christmas brings many presents and this update brings physics, storage control and sound effects.
Using physics we can now launch items over conveyors and buildings or up mountains, drop items onto conveyors below, stack the conveyors with ridiculous amounts of items etc.
Storages can now be set to release items and to which directions.
And the first sound effects for buildings when they are active have been implemented.
Transportation Upgrade Update
Hi cubics,
This first official update brings better looking conveyors and lifts:
Lifts can also now stack:
The old elevators will still load for existing save games however they are not buildable anymore.
Also new, the distributor to split or merge lanes and the filter conveyor, use these together to filter a mixed conveyor lane:
For now these are available without research.
Just some basic keyboard commands:
WASD - Move camera
E - Copy building at mouse cursor OR Clear building for construction
C - Clear item from conveyor
DEL - Destroy building
CTRL /ALT - Show building/conveyor overlays
Still working on the UI so you will see alot of continuing changes there.
Please note that this is still Early Access which means there will be updates, new features and improvements as well as bugs and rebalancing.
