Balancing

Reduced time needed for an unit of Automation 2 research from 15 to 5 seconds to compensate for previous change of science packs requirements.

Minor features

Added --window-size launch option. For example --window-size=1680x1050 more
Damaging a tree with impact or physical damage generates some leaves.
Warning icon for logistic chests that are not in a reach of roboport.
Train stop names are rendered at 45 degrees to better show names.

Bugfixes

Fixed that ghosts would stay over entities after deconstruction was canceled. more
Fixed that the controls menu wouldn't use a fixed common width between controls sections.
Inserter researches now require equal ratios of science pack types.
Fixed that transferring blueprints from the library could make the headless server crash. more
Fixed that blueprints could be duplicated when moving to a new version. more
Fixed progress bar not showing in the entity info panel if the text was too long. more
Fixed (at least one of the cases) of crashes related to not being able to connect to auth server while joining game. more
Fixed, possible crash related to changed bounding box of entity by a mod. When the mod is removed (added) the corner of the entity can occupy chunk that doesn't exist yet which would cause a loading error. more
Fixed that mining sounds and the leaves effect weren't present when mining tree from a car. more
Fixed possible crash when removing modded rails during save migration. more

Modding

Mod hotkeys are arranged per-mod.
Disallowed defining different rail categories for this moment as having more than one will never work properly until we spent some non-trivial time with that, which is not a priority now.

Scripting

Fixed that item-with-inventory filters wouldn't be preserved when cloned through the Lua API. more

Factorio: Space Age

Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies. In the beginning you will find yourself chopping trees, mining ores and crafting mechanical arms and transport belts by hand, but in short time you can become an industrial powerhouse, with huge solar fields, oil refining and cracking, manufacture and deployment of construction and logistic robots, all for your resource needs. However this heavy exploitation of the planet's resources does not sit nicely with the locals, so you will have to be prepared to defend yourself and your machine empire.

Join forces with other players in cooperative Multiplayer, create huge factories, collaborate and delegate tasks between you and your friends. Add mods to increase your enjoyment, from small tweak and helper mods to complete game overhauls, Factorio's ground-up Modding support has allowed content creators from around the world to design interesting and innovative features. While the core gameplay is in the form of the freeplay scenario, there are a range of interesting challenges in the form of the Scenario pack, available as free DLC. If you don't find any maps or scenarios you enjoy, you can create your own with the in-game Map Editor, place down entities, enemies, and terrain in any way you like, and even add your own custom script to make for interesting gameplay.
