    Tetter's Layout Progress and Other Pics.

    At least, I listen to you :mrgreen: :wave::wave:. To answer your question: VERY SLOWLY :mrgreen::mrgreen:. Yes, I added some structures. Now there are only two or three left to be built, but one of them (the citrus packing plant) will be a real challenge, so it will take some time.
