Hmm, https://factorio.com/api/latest-releases still says 1.1.3 is the latest for headless (although the website itself is correct).

Its fine for me, maybe you have some cached version

then your API is not providing proper cache invalidation

That link did show 1.1.3 when I tested it shortly after the post. It now shows 1.1.4 as expected.

Nah, the spidertron speed buff I want to see is "Spidertron can now climb on and attach itself to a train wagon"

That would be pretty cool.
Go to train car and "enter" it to attach

Even better. I suggested that in the ideas and suggestions forum before spidertron was added.
the most annoying thing with the spidertrons is picking them up and putting them down to ride in a train.

That's actually a feature that I wrote for my Spidertron Engineer mod (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/SpidertronEngineer). Now that you've mentioned it here, I think that I might release that little bit as a standalone mod, without all the 'transform-the-player-into-a-spidertron' extra that the original mod adds.

Great. It’ll probably be within a week, and I’ll post here when it’s published. If anyone has any suggestions for what to call it, let me know!

Can we get Logistics moved anywhere but middle of screen? Anything but Logistics is better to be there

i tried it, expecting to see it latch on physically. i was disappointed.

Haha that is far beyond my graphical capabilities.

I've thought about doing that for Vehicle Wagon, actually. For example, use the Spider Remote to click on a Vehicle Wagon flatbed car, and it walks over and curls up onto it. I have no idea how to animate the legs, but we could certainly get the behavior right.

Normally when vehicles are loaded they are held in stasis (actually deleted), but we could replace it with a "legless spider" that teleports along with the train so that logistics and equipment keep working while riding the train.
