Version: 0.3.6
Date: 2020-04-11
  Changes:
    - Added a simple heuristic related to item count to the buffer selection function. This should help the situation of requesters always taking from the closest buffer even if it has a very small amount of available items.

    - Adjusted logic of requesting from buffers. Request depots should tend to request from nearest buffers more reliably.

Version: 0.3.2
Date: 2020-04-09

    - Supplying depots (supply, fluid, mining, buffer) will offer to the closest request depots first.
    - Fixed some issue with modded rails and gates not being placeable on roads.
