Building axles
« on: May 11, 2009, 04:35:31 pm »
There are three types of axles, but there are only two build-axle commands.  The build horizontal axle command requires extra steps, and causes confusion:


I suggest splitting the build horizontal axle command into build E/W axle and build N/S axle.

And perhaps do the same fow waterwheels?

Waterwheels, bridges, pumps, and the like probably don't need to be seperated by orientation in the build menu.

Axles are a bit of an exception due to the confusion the vertical/horizontal wording can cause, so I support that half of the suggestion.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.
