Hey dieselminers!

Update 1.1.1 took longer than I anticipated, but it's finally here. It includes a lot of changes (mostly to the interface), bug fixes and adds the Claustrophobia safe mode.

Claustrophobia safe mode

The Claustrophobia Safe Mode is designed for people who experience fear or discomfort due to limited visibility. This mode makes the dark space around the screen almost invisible. Additionally, it changes how darkness at level 4 works, so your visibility range is no longer limited by the surrounding darkness. However, to see ores and mines, you still need to use a direct scanner (flashlight).

User Interface Improvements

Added tooltips that display the name of items in the inventory menu. To view the tooltip, select an item or hover your mouse over it.

Fuel scale has been expanded. Now it will display how much light energy you are getting when you have a Light energy converter installed, and how many seeds are draining fuel from your mech. Relevant indicators will appear in the HUD when you install a light energy converter or get hit by a seed from a chemotrophic plant.

Added indicators for the availability of Automated emergency repair system, Automated refueller, and Automated thermal stabilizer in the inventory. These indicators will appear on the screen after you upgrade the Shop to the level where these items become available. These indicators will glow green if you have at least one of the relevant items in your inventory.

Added an indicator to the altimeter to show exactly at what depth you are currently located; The terrain depth monitor now shows the depth at which you will hit the ground, even if it's red line is outside the altimeter's range.

Bug fixes

Fixed an issue where messages about earning or spending money get stuck. Also fixed an issue where the current player's money was displayed incorrectly after buying something;
Fixed a bug where air flow around the falling mech stayed red even after the mech's speed had been decreased to a safe level. Now, the air flow only appears red when the fall damage at the current falling speed is fatal;
Fixed issues where S-tier upgrades couldn't sometimes be selected with a gamepad. Also fixed a bug that allowed S-tier upgrades to be bought with only 2 out of 3 required blueprints.
Navigation with a gamepad in the inventory menu now works correctly;
Fixed a problem where the cost of going to the surface using elevator platform sometimes would be shown with an incorrect discount;
Fixed an issue with ore and grass tiles on the first level not displaying correctly after returning to the surface with an evacuation beacon;
Fixed an issue with the Earthquake Precognition System displaying wrong time left until an earthquake after using explosives or a Seismic Charge;
Finally, all issues with simultaneous use of several items have been fixed. The system for their use has been reworked so you can now use several items simultaneously and there is no risk of using the wrong item or using one of them endlessly. WARNING: If you have assigned items to different buttons in the controls menu (e.g., "F" for the first item instead of "1"), those changes will be reset to the defaults.
An issue with mines on level 4 occasionally disappearing has also been fixed, although I was unable to reproduce this bug, so I am not entirely sure whether the changes really fixed it. Mines on old maps where the bug occurred won't appear again, unfortunately (or fortunately, for some players).

Other changes

Backup saves will now automatically appear under the save slot when the game in this slot is completed;
The effect of explosives on the time until the next earthquake has been reduced by 50%;
Added an option to quit the game without saving. To do so, you will need to toggle this option when quitting the game;
The graphics of Propeller 6 have been cleaned;
Increased the amount of fuel obtained from each glowing plant using the Light energy converter by 25%.
