Version: 1.2.0
Date: 2019-12-23
  Features:
    - Added low resolution graphics! Many thanks to iicyan for improvements to mod sprites builder.
  Changes:
    - Small improvements to setting variable access.
Version: 1.1.1
Date: 2019-12-10

Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2019-12-7

  Changes:
    - Change the duct constraint control when checking the fluidboxes connected to one duct. Now all duct parts could be connected only with the exact type of fluid ports availables (this mean that end points can no longer be connected to more than one duct part, isn't a problem because from this version can be used the non-return duct).
