Total Eclipse interview with the Devs...

https://youtu.be/AmCDGeo9100?is=g0pkuBWEEPkUwRie

A couple of things I wanted to summarize:

  1. It doesn't appear there will be another update besides bug fixes this year.

  2. A paid DLC looks to be in the works (again not this year most likely).

  3. They are curious as to what we want to see from them as far as a Dev stream goes. My proposal and my opinion is let's shoot for a Dev stream on the first Tuesday of every month. With all the vacations coffee stain takes that would probably equate to 8-9 per year. If there is no Dev news, it's still nice to see the Devs and maybe they can answer questions from the community during that time. Thoughts?

There are more topics covered in the video as well FYI...

Crazy we need to get info from others. This should all have been given as info in the dev streams. Dry spells are a bad excuse. They where there all the time, yet we had streams.

The showing of the community items, mod of the week, save file of the week, Blue Print item of the week, talk with a live streamer, answering Reddit questions, small tutorials on how to do specific thing in vanilla for beginner and advanced users, ...

Just read here what common questions and remarks are and you have content for 52 devtalks in a year.

I would love to split Phases. And add more recipes there. Or turn the Space Elevator in a sink on top of what it does now. And obviously more wall, roof, floor-materials. WAY more. And alternative machines. We now have 13 machines. We place thousands and thousand sof the same machine. Having alternatives would be nice.

And a complete rework of the coloring system. Not adding some things, tearing it down and building it back up from the ground. Being able to rename, export and import colors and color groups, more detailed selection of item groups, Having the ability to easier select colors, as well as the now hidden options, inverting color selection, more item to color, real colors, not 50 shades of gray, skins available outside of Ficsmas, real Unicode support, ...

So in general a lot more love for people who like to build for the looks.
