Issues unresolved
Vessels appear empty
This bug only appears in the OS X and Linux versions of the game. The vessels are being filled, but the fluid isn't being displayed.
Multi-monitor issues
The game works without problems in multi-monitor setups, however overviews, for example which reactors have been fixed in factory, will appear severely taller than the screen height.
