Patch 0.3.2.0

Intro
Hi Pioneers!

We’ve got another patch out with a bunch of smaller and bigger fixes and changes on Experimental.

We made the Stackable Poles for Conveyors and Pipelines work with each other as well, but that meant we had to do a visual adjustment to the Stackable Pipeline Support, which are now placed in a different position. This will not functionally break your existing pipe networks, but they might look a bit off where you’ve used the Stackable Supports.

The creature respawning has also been adjusted again to be more forgiving, so creatures don’t respawn where your factory is at work. One disclaimer here, enemies will not just disappear from where they spawned without you having to clear them out first. If it is in a factory area, they should no longer respawn afterwards. And the flying enemies should no longer multiply like crazy.

Hope you enjoy this patch! <3
