Build 103 Released

This is most likely the biggest update that will be coming before the release of 6.0. Notable features in this release include:



Liquid voids, which can be used in sandbox to reduce spills without using a powered incinerator, as well as underflow gates, which are inverted equivalents of overflow gates.



A new tech tree layout. This design reduces wasted space and prevents overlapping blocks appearing when mods are installed.



Font icons of most blocks and items. These can be used in names, the chat, or message blocks. To copy a character for a block or item to your clipboard, shift-click in the placement menu or database.


Full changelog:
  • Added new icons w/ smooth scaling
  • Added liquid void (Contributed by @TsjipTsjip)
  • Added bridge opacity slider (Contributed by @Quezler)
