What if Factorio was more of an RTS?

Scenario that removes the player-character, but introduces other restrictions. Ever played C&C? Yeah, now imagine having construction yards with limited build radius. This is that. Also needs "No instant build", because really... in which RTS are structures done instantly?

So:
- Buildings take time to build. The more HP, the longer they take to be completed.
- You can only build around construction yards. The build radius is shown in ALT-mode (if you press the "Alt"-key).
- You have no player avatar, so no equipment grid and no weapons. Any defense comes from turrets or units implemented by other mods. I highly recommend Kombat Drones made by Klonan for this:

This mod may eventually be ported to 2.0. Currently still stuck on 1.1, because barely any mods I play with are ported to 2.0

Still working on:
- Some kind of animation for buildings in progress.
- Maybe some sound-effects ripped from C&C for trying to build out of range.
- Better visualization of the build radius, with an option to toggle it. It gets quite annoying and confusing, especially with multiple construction yards in proximity. <--- SOLVED!!! I'm so good, and trash.
