This week, we have continued working on the addition of pipelines and pumps. The idea behind the pipelines is to connect the water pump to the wash plant and/or froth floater to increase their yield, giving you more ore. Similarly, connecting the oil pump to the asphalt plant will yield more asphalt.
We are also working on adding automatic smelting and other manual tasks to the conveyors so that, in the end, you can automate everything if you want to. Additionally, larger electrical components are coming to beta quite soon.
There is also a lot of vehicle reworks being done, but that will be shown in a later Friday news!

Friday News!
Hello!
This week, we have continued the work on expanding and improving the game, and in this Friday's news, we have a few sneak peeks as well! ːsteamhappyː
We have also been working on saving issues regarding the company saves in beta, making them XML-based so they don't corrupt and are easier to edit for those who want that.
The upcoming pumps and pipelines are part of a bigger series of production units that are coming, which will allow more automation and more production.
I will also join a livestream this weekend to talk about upcoming features and answer questions. Links and more info are further below in this post. ːsteamhappyː

Beta Update!
Beta update! ːsteamhappyː
Today, the beta gets an update with some fixes to the dirt transfer between vehicles and hopper fixes to stop them from deleting material.
This version includes some optimization to MP loading, which should reduce load times by a lot.
There is also some rework being done to the Company saves to make them more reliable. It's not completely done as we can't replace it all at once for beta and default branch compatibility reasons.
1. Right-click on "Out of Ore" in your Steam library and select Properties. 2. In the Properties menu, click on Betas from the left sidebar. 3. Select "beta - Latest beta for players" from the dropdown list. 4. The beta should begin downloading automatically.

Friday News!
Hello!
This week, we have kept fixing and working on the conveyors, sorters, production units, UI, and power systems to make sure it all works as intended and just make sure it all makes sense.
Now the entire chain of production units makes sense, has a purpose, and can be used in combination to achieve different end results. The placeable lights now also require power to function, and we have added multiple pylon styles to fit different needs of powerline construction.
The to-do list is shrinking rapidly, and we have added way more than we thought we would to this update. We will keep testing during the weekend, but if everything goes to plan, we hope to bring this update to beta after that is done and we are happy with the state of everything. ːsteamhappyː
Wall mounted pylons
Powered lights!
Finally, we have the correct cabs for the big excavators.
