Well, seeing the distance of Tier 2 I dont think T3 is necessary.
The mods I was looking foward to use in 2.1 are the "BerbCorp Belts" and "Cargo Bay Loaders". And I dont know how easy it is to do but a mod that lets u place a Landing Pad Unloading Bay in space would be nice. Feel like it would make for a better experience that just inserting direct into the Cargo Bay
Also I got this error when trying Pipes T2
Failed to load mods: Error while loading recipe prototype "berbcorp-pipe-to-ground-tier-2" (recipe): In RecipePrototype, category and additional_categories got merged into categories table. Please use that instead.
Modifications: BerbCorp Pipe to Ground Tier 2
