CircuitVeil 0.3.164

Factory feel

• Machines now loop audio while they work: solar, coal, and nuclear.
• Solar plants can sit closer together. The pad can overlap; the cores still cannot.
• Sparse building menus (solar, coal, radar, fence) are narrower so they do not sit half empty.
• Overlapping buildings draw in iso depth, so a later-placed machine no longer paints over one in front of it.

Early game craft balance

1. Circuit: 3 Iron Plate, 6 Copper Wire, 20s (was 4 / 8 / 22s)
2. Motor: 10 Iron Plate, 14 Copper Wire, 2 Circuit, 30s (was 12 / 24 / 2 / 35s)
3. Resource Storage Container: 10 Iron Plate, 25 Lunarcrete (was 12 / 36)
4. Mining Drill: 8 Iron Plate, 5 Copper Wire, 1 Motor, 20 Lunarcrete (Circuit dropped)
5. Basic Assembler: 6 Iron Plate, 6 Copper Wire, 1 Circuit, 1 Motor, 25 Lunarcrete
6. Toolbelt: 1 Circuit (was 3)

Defender

• Fortified Grid lists ×1.5 storage on Mining Drills, Advanced Drills, and Resource Storage Containers.
• Hardened Grid lists ×2 on those same buildings (not “every building”).

Fixes

• World status text could sit on Idle / 0/100 while the building popup showed the live count. Labels now catch up.
• Reconnecting no longer stripes the world map with fog over chunks you already explored.
• Assembler Link Resource actually starts the link again.
• A refused place keeps the ghost up, and overlap uses the visible pad.
• Remove / Cancel focus rings stay inside the building popup.
• Tech tree no longer trips a GLES3 render glitch from hidden connection line
