Yea, that doesn't really help either. I am still T3. Oh well, back to the steam engine for most things for a while. Thanks for the replies.

Game discussion / Refinery changes
February 02, 2020, 11:56:10 AM
Aside from my 'sand from stone' sadness, I also feel that we have been pushed back into a world relying on more wood and coal, since the new requirement to pull both gasoline and mineral oil out of the refinery at the same rate.

From a practical standpoint, I lived in a chemical plant town and my dad work for a refinery. Not every plant refined things in the same way and there was certainly waste if there was not a market for a product, so I think the old way of being able to just refine gasoline from a plant made sense. This forced change makes utilizing the more modern engine MUCH less efficient and more work/grind.

Game discussion / Sand from Stone
February 02, 2020, 11:38:24 AM
I am very sad that what once was a T3(?) ability is now a T4 one (and I am not T4 yet). My easy sand from stone was ripped away from me, in lieu of making more sense in a higher tiered skill. I will cry now and head back to the sand dunes by the sea. <sniff>

It would have been nice (to me - yes, I am being selfish, as I need to grind more in this wonderfully grind-filled game) to have IMPROVED it with the T4 change, but still allowed us to use our abundance of stone for sand (which I always need) at the workbench. Even a pestle and mortar would have been preferred over removing the function. <cry>
