uFactory DevLog: 19 January 2020
Hi everyone! Just a brief progress update for uFactory's next version: The focus is on improving usability and reducing the number of clicks necessary to build and revise your factory!
The first thing that needed overhauling was the build tool. So, a full refactor was performed, and now the code for building everything is completely centralized, which makes maintaining it much easier and removes any possible differences in the feel of placement between tools. In addition to the under-the-hood maintenance, we gave it a bit more power, with a few new abilities:
[h3]Added click-and-drag area placement for all machines:[/h3]
[h3]Added conveyor belt click-and-drag path placement:[/h3]
There's also work being done on a UI overhaul for the in-game tools, so hopefully everything should be much more accessible and easier to use with the next update!
Until next time,
