ok, its done now
.
It uses point sprites, and it draw particles as particle systems which contain particles with the same size, texture, and properties, this allow the engine to make some calculations only once per system instead of doing it for every particle. Particle systems doesn't support particle rotation and all the work is done in place on the data that are sent to OpenGL, so it's much much faster.
Currently only the nanolathe particles are using it, so it now emits twice the number of particles that was set before

maybe, if I can get what I am working on ready for a test release tonight.
Currently I am adding full support for TA interface, so you'll have TA buttons and every thing like in TA, so mods will be supported better. But this might not be ready tonight.

Yes, I had time to finish most of the GUI code yesterday before going to bed: only shortcuts don't work at the moment, everything else is working fine. I may try to upload a test release from school, or mail it to you if I can't.

Are current nanolathe particles circles or quads? If there are plenty of them, I`ll experiment with different kinds of particles - maybe quads now will be nicer

Perfect
Then they should not blend into circles if colored as quads
