really interesting game. i like it but i do hope in next updates funnels would update so if you press the button like shift when placing it close to object it would stick to object automatically, because i am really tired from situations where i put it 1 pixel too far and it dont work anymore, same with belts, sometimes it just dont work with funnels and you need to try connect them again, and again, until they would perfectly match, pixel to pixel. that is tiresome. also, i want to ask for some ingame help about logic gates. maybe some screenshots with examples of their work step by step or something like this. I dont know if other people had problem with them but it was really not easy for me to understand what they are doing after i read their description in the manual and the goddess dont know anything about them, so i had to go and read the forum to understand a little. Thanks for the game, i enjoyed it and i am gonna play again

Hi, thank you for playing. When it comes to automatic aligning of structures, you can hold space while placing to place a structure next to another structure if your mouse is over the other structure's hitbox. I hope to make this more robust in the future, but even in its current state, it should be of help.
When it comes to item descriptions, I get that it isn't always the most clear how things work. I should probably rework a few of the descriptions to make the mechanics easier to learn.
I've been considering electric furnaces, but it would have to be late game stuff, probably the last machine you make, but I still haven't decided on the specifics, or if I'll actually add them. I have been worried that they would be too overpowered or that they would make the regular ovens fully obsolete.
i can also suggest upgrade version of logic gates, because even if i indersood how they work and finally set everything up, they can still let go 2 items from conveyer belts somehow if it on normal speed. I think everything could be much easier if there would combination like shift+right mouse at set gate that set it to let go only 1/2/3/how conveyer goes items per opening so it would be much easier to set automation. It is really extremely needful item imho because it is extremely not intuitive process to set it with just logic gates even if you read description. forum and saw some pictures of preset factory
Have you had 2 items go through the gate on a normal speed conveyor? If so, that is something that I'll have to fix. I think the logic gate itself works fine, but it is the case that some setups are pretty difficult to figure out (especially for the oven where fuel is an ingredient). I'll see what I can do to make automation easier to understand in the future.
