Version: 0.18.2
Date: 2020-03-21
  Features:
    - I like complexity. But according to KonMari method one should ask: "Does this complexity create joy to me?"
      In case of self-feeding coal mining setup with burner miners this is actually not the case.
      That's why I set the number of fuel slots to 2 (Can be configured for people who answer the KonMari question differently).
