Gases... makes sense. Definately eliminate the headlift on those, it makes no sense for it to be there. A simple flag to toggle if the stuff is liquid or gas to enable the headlift checks should work wonders.

Wonder if you guys will going to be using Steam, makes sense as an energy transfer mechanism. Looking forward to my bazillion-refinery-factory breaking and having to reconstruct all of the "pure caterium, pure copper" etc infrastructure. That'll be fun!

Looking forward to even more oil popping out of the ground. That 4-to-1 oil to circuits recipe is begging for a big refinery complex somewhere...

Update still scheduled for March? Not being demanding, take the valve-time to make sure it's fun and not too buggy.

yep, end of feb/beginning of march is the goal

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT. Hold on.

Nitrogen gas, cool, great, love it...but water and oil...

We already have extractors for water and oil. Are the current water and oil extractors getting replaced, or are we just getting multiple versions of extractors that do the same thing?

Or is the steam and the aerosolized oil separate from pump oil and extractor water? Do we need a boiler to heat liquids into the gaseous state? So many questions

multiple methods of extraction. as i said at 1:30-ish, the wells will provide a higher output than "traditional" methods.

So many teasers and updates about update 4. I wonder though if it would be better to release smaller sets of functionality.

everything ties into each other, so releasing bit by bit is not possible.
