:O someone else actually cares enough about CanalBuilder to update it? that's pretty awesome, I haven't done pretty much any factorio modding in a while...
And it looks like MaveTheMaverick has done it properly too, including all the past authors in the authors list, and even forking my GitHub repo...
I'll look in to adding support for Canal Builder simplified - it fixes the very annoying issue with the original Canal Builder script that lags the game when too many biters cross water. However, I don't think I'll be able to have either version as a hard dependency - will probably have to be optional? But then they aren't downloaded when you download this mod in-game...
