Tool modes

[Realmonster]

I just recently finished the game and one of the things I've noticed since the beginning is that the way the tool modes are presented doesn't make any sense. I know there are 3 different icons but there doesn't seem to be any point to selecting the hammer or the icon with the circles; Left clicking with either of those doesn't do anything special.

The only use of switching modes seems to be to select deconstruct.

I'm sure somebody will say 'well this mode is for this and this mode is for that' but what I'm saying is that it doesn't matter. I've beaten the game and never saw any difference between the 2 modes that are not deconstruction. Having the mouse wheel cycle through these has only served to annoy me when I accidentally leave it on deconstruct and then have to pick up all the resources off the ground and remake whatever it is that I deconstructed.

I suggest you get rid of the modes and make LMB use, confirm, select, rename, etc. and make some other key, maybe default RMB be deconstruct.

Thanks for reading, and great game. It was pretty sweet watching this planet come to life.

It's been a useless relic of a dedicated flashlight mode for at least 2 years! So much for "1.0" eh?
