Can the animations be enabled to allow compatibility with Klonans Mining Drones mod? Currently this mod makes them completely invisible.

They are probably units, and unit graphics are disabled by default, but there is a setting for it.
Making unit graphics not have animations propely is hard, but they're not needed most of the time so removing them seemed fine, though keeping a single static image would probably be better by default.

So just toggle the setting for now, and i'll try to change it for a later release if i can.

Thanks I will try that.

Changed this in 2.0.3. Thanks for the report.

Thank you.
