Hey man, I love the idea of this mod. I'm looking forward to play around with it :)

thank you man. it means alot. early days Im currently trying to figure out modelling so i can get a sprite that isnt a white box. have you looked at fcpu it was the main inspiration for doing something like this and is alot easier to use than this will be as im trying to keep it as close to risc spec as I can ( fcpus language is most like what you would find in one of the zachtronics games and more suitable for factorio), although it hasn't been updated to 2.1 yet i think and it doesnt have a permissible licence

I did see fCPU and it's pretty cool, but what I like the most about your idea is that you're trying to replicate risc spec. That's really awesome!
