Suggestion: Undo

Love the game! One suggestion that'll help with the more complex puzzles.. sometimes I go down a path that doesn't pan out, and I want to back up 4-5 steps to before I tried it out, without scrapping the entire puzzle. An undo function would do wonders for that.. it really saved my bacon in SpaceChem.

Hi!

I've been thinking about this feature earlier in development but finally I haven't added it. I guess I will try to do it now. Added to my TODO list for next update, thanks!

For now you can use Save and Load in Pause Menu which IMHO are better for trying completely different approaches in solving the level. At least with this you don't have to click Undo tens of times if you want to try another approach. (And there's, of course, Reset button, also in Pause Menu).

Another question about Undo is how many moves should it store? 50 would be enough? Should rotating blocks be stored as separate steps?

Usually I just want to go back 10 or so, so I image 50 would be plenty. Any action on a 'placed' object would work (obviously rotations before placement don't mean anything).
