Added a little homage to your amazing early work, here's hoping we get to see some of these things in SE2

Monorail block causes the game to crash, can this be fixed?

Crashes game when you place almost any rail block DO NOT USE IN CURRENT FORM

Is there no one to overtake this mod? Until now it worked fine but now i get crashes with Monorail and Rail blocks and that sucks, because it is such a usefull mod. Maybe Keen make it vanilla?

Dudes see a mod that hadn't been updated since 2016, but still post issues here expecting them to be fixed.

Really miss this mod. It was one of those that singlehandedly made SE. Please come back.

@Syhkane yeah. If any modders with spare time discover this, it would be a huge contribution to the community if at least some of the blocks could be revived :)
