MineMogul changes
The Cased & Coiled Update is out now!
This update includes 2 new main processing machines, elevators, unpackager, improvements to boxes, and translations to 10 languages.
Casing Press
Scrap accumulates as casings are created. When the machine is full, it will eject a Scrap Cube, which can be sold directly or recycled in a furnace.
Wire Coiler
Stretches out Rods and links them together to make a Wire Coil. Unlike the Threading Lathe, this machine is quite fast.
Elevators
We added two new elevators! These were pretty tricky to design because we want to keep everything in the game using real physics.
The first is the Screw Conveyor. It uses an Archimedes' screw to bring ore up at a much steeper angle.
Roller Elevator
We originally designed it for raising boxes, but you might find it works well for other things too :)
Steam post imageIt's a little weird to build it currently. After placing it down, you need to press "F" to interact with it to raise or lower the height. This is something I want to improve in the future when updating the general building systems.
Unpackager & Box Improvements
You can now unpackage boxes made in the (newly improved) Packager!
Boxes can now be used for transporting objects longer distances to help reduce total object count.
Steam post imageThere's also been an number of improvements to the physics of the boxes. They've also been made slightly smaller. In general, they should work much more reliably now.
Other Stuff
We added some other stuff too! Like the Polished Sorter, Roller Merger, Fence Walls, etc.
The Packager is also now out of "Dev Test", and has received some improvements!
Localization
MineMogul is now available in the following languages:
简体中文 (Simplified Chinese)
Français (French)
Deutsch (German)
한국어 (Korean)
Português - Brasil (Portuguese - Brazil)
Русский (Russian)
Español - España (Spanish - Spain)

The translations are mostly finished, but there's a few minor UI issues in some languages that we'll be fixing these over the next couple weeks. If you notice any other issues, please let us know!
Version 0.3.0.8 released:
Added translations to 10 languages
Added new Wire Coiler Machine

Updated the "Select Ore" menu to be taller and fit more things in it
Updated the final quests to require the new resources
Updated Packager & Unpackager to have their own research instead of being unlocked with the test items
Updated package box collider to use beveled edges - should help reduce it getting stuck on things (thanks to wub for the idea!)
Updated Blast Furnace to be able to create Steel Ingots if you put Steel into it (However, you still need the casting furnace to make Steel from Iron)
Reduced price of Packager from $12,000 to $8,000
Reduced physics sleep threshold - should help prevent things getting stuck in the Ore Crusher or on Hoppers
Reduced maximum randomized size of Crushed Ore slightly to prevent them from getting stuck in the Ore Crusher sometimes
Improved package boxes physics on roller conveyors
Improved physics of Roller Corners
Fixed randomly not being able to press F on things (caused by your held physics object getting removed)
Thanks for playing MineMogul! We look forward to all your feedback in the Steam Discussions and Discord.
