Yeah this isn't a "hype new planet" update.

But it's nice to see all these QoL features still being added!

Love that this game has a community that can appreciate little things instead of complaining we dont get a new planet every week

Haha true, after I read the whole patch note I was initially disappointed. But then I remembered it's hard to show something more exciting than the new planets every week

Idunno, i got almost as hyped when i saw they're adding math expressions to input fields as i was about the new planets

Dont get me wrong, the planets look awesome, but i love not having to tab out to a calculator or try to constantly do all the math in my head!

That is true, math expressions directly in fields is super cool. And I'm gonna use that feature alot.

But it's not as cool as new machines, and new ways of creating items and such. Also it was rather short fff as compared to the last ones

imo theres lots of games with cool mechanics, but the devs commitment to qol is something that sets factorio apart. Factorio without qol would feel like coding in notepad
