Hi everyone! Progress continues on the new Godot version of uFactory! Coming up in the next version is one of the biggest features of the original, the liquid and gas systems! In the new version, these systems are looking better than ever, with new UI to help you identify their contents and diagnose problems with your layout.

As you can see, the new version is much cleaner and easier to read than the old one. In the gas view, you can see the chimney connections to the machines below. (The liquid pipe system will also have a similar feature for easily identifying machines above, but it just wasn't ready at time of posting.) A mouseover of any pipe or vent will reveal its contents. If there's a mixture, you'll get a pie chart to show what's mixed in:
Getting these systems running smoothly and efficiently and cleanly has taken up most of the month, but they're all about 90% done now, so I can wrap them up and start moving on to the other major tasks for this next version, namely Process Diagrams, new levels, and some quality of life improvements and bug fixes. The hope is still to have the latest update out around the end of February. The extra day this year helps! As always, thanks for supporting uFactory!
