Yeah, wasn't even sure what language it was at first, tbh, so the standard was hard to tell. Thanks for the response!

No worries, I have actually already added a reference about this in the DOCS of the game, it's a very good point. I added this to the Components page in DOCS (not live in the demo yet)

**Each call is a new instance**
`get_component(id)` is a factory — every call creates a fresh wrapper, like instantiating a Python class. For machines tied to a physical entity (rover, smelter, generator), wrappers all read and write through the same backing data, so it feels singleton-ish in practice — setting a value from one wrapper is visible from another.
For purely virtual components like the `transmitter`, each wrapper is independent:
```
# Fails — two separate transmitters, only the first is connected:
get_component("transmitter").connect("earth")
get_component("transmitter").transmit("weather", 42)
# Works — one transmitter, used twice:
t = get_component("transmitter")
t.connect("earth")
t.transmit("weather", 42)
```
Wrappers are just objects — make one, make ten, each is independent.

Thanks for the feedback and helping me make the game better ! Appreciated !
