    So here we can see it's producing in the Darth Vader helmet.

    It's making iron ingots.

    You find resources, you find the things, you set up production lines, things are running on conveyor belts, and you produce items out of those things.

    And I think the prototype that we had was

    I guess visually a lot better than this prototype or this sprints version here.

    But when we started doing the actual game, we also put some time that the conveyor belts need to have some logic that is actually scalable.

    So we kind of started from scratch.

    redid things for how they could hopefully work in a bigger environment as well.

    So that's why things are added quite slowly.
