A number of big improvements have come to the Godot Beta of uFactory today! The third version of the new uFactory (v2.1.5.0) is now available via an opt-in Steam Beta. To play the new version, right-click the game in your Steam Library and choose Properties. From the Betas tab, choose the Godot Public Beta option. Steam will then start downloading the beta version.

What's included?

• Fuel system! Now you're not just limited to coal anymore. If you have a process that needs to burn fuel for heat, it can use any type of commodity that burns: solid, liquid, or gas. Want to smelt some ore with propane?
• Assembly Groups. No more putting the goose before the gander, now you have to assemble complex items in logical order!
• Assembly-customized tokens, to allow commodities to look like their proper stage of assembly at all times on the belts.
• Optional objectives, to give you something extra to strive for and score some extra points
• Two new belt types: The branch left and the branch right
• Four new levels: Desalination, Eraser Making, Pencil Making, Back to School

• Mod Tools have been upgraded and improved, most notably by adding tons of validation tools (Windows x64 only)
• Process diagrams have been adjusted to a more uniform (and more readable) horizontal layout
• Many, many bugs fixed.
