[h3]The demo has been updated to version 0.0.0.17, which contains:[/h3]

• [p]Reworked the Rolling Conveyors.[/p]
  • [p]They're much faster, slightly more expensive, and now locked by default. They get unlocked with the Rolling Mill.[/p]
• [p]Added the first Work in progress version of Saving/Loading[/p][p][/p]

[h3]Saving / Loading:[/h3][p]I just finished the first WIP version of saving/loading. Because this is the first version, I expect there to be some bugs/issues. Note: [/p]

• [p]The progress on your active quests don't save yet. So, if you had (3/10) diamonds collected, it'll reset to (0/10) when loading the save.[/p]
• [p]The physical ore pieces don't get saved yet. This includes ore pieces inside sorting machines.[/p]
• [p]Some other things like the minecart and dynamite will get reset when loading a save[/p]
• [p]I assume current save files will become incompatible with future game versions. So please don't get to attached to your save :)[/p]

[p]I plan to continue updating this over the next few days/weeks.[/p][p][/p][p]Saving/Loading is not not integrated into the main menu yet. If you want to load a save file, you need to press "New Game" first, then load it from the pause menu.
