Version 0.12.1

[FactorioBot]

• Features
  • Burner inserters start with enough energy to pick up 1 item and fuel them selfs.
• Changes
  • Train station names use natural string comparing (station "Iron 10" comes after "Iron 9", not after "Iron 1").
  • New command-line parameter: --latency-ms. Allows to set server latency in milliseconds rather than ticks
  • You can copy paste circuit network conditions between Inserter, Lamp, Pump and Offshore Pump.
  • The delete button in Load Game or Save Game dialogs now asks for confirmation before deleting
  • Locomotive on schedule can't be rotated while moving anymore.
  • Changed fast inventory transfer from the main player inventory so ctrl+clicking empty slots doesn't move items to the logistic trash slots.
  • Changed Assembling machine's auto-insertion behaviour when using speed module effects. Faster speed with fast recipes will insert more items sooner.
• Bugfixes
  • Very rough support for RTL languages, the texts are no longer rendered backwards (but the gui still is and multiline text will cause problems).

  • Default mods are always enabled if mod-list.json is lost (even when enable new mods option is disabled).
  • LuaSurface can be invalid when read from LuaPlayer and Player entity if the player is disconnected from the game (MP disconnect) - use LuaSurface.valid to check. Note: LuaSurface currently never switches between valid and not valid so the check only has to be done when it's first read from the LuaPlayer.
  • Changed default maximum range of projectiles from 10^308 to 1000.

Burner inserters start with enough energy to pick up 1 item and fuel them selfs.

This is the best! I can use them to fuel boilers!
It was unusable before, you had to put coal to each of hundreds of inserters.

Sorry for the two posts, FactorioBot had some kind of a hiccup, and while I made the post manually, it woke up and finished its work :-)

Woo! Thanks you

Time to play!

WOA. Such many fixes in one week. Congratulations.
With that speed my guess comes eventually true? https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... 357#p89869

Possibly the best and most wanted new feature. Great!

[Greg40]

Thank you for the fast update

[OBAMA MCLAMA]

I read every change.... once again.... agh.
And im probably not as hyped about the burner inserters than some.... been using a mod for it this whole time!

But yay super glad it works!
The change im most glad about is fixing the splitters, oh my god did that annoy the hell out of me!

[Xterminator]

Awesome! Love these quick fixes.
Super happy about the burner inserter change, I might actually use them now.
Good job as always guys.

One of the few mods I was considering using for “basically vanilla” games.

It says no new updates (with experimental option checked) and the website has the installers for 0.12.0. I assume I have to wait?

It still says 0.12.0 (demo). Unless they forgot to update the name.

Yay. \o/

But somehow I could slap myself now because I just put down like another 168 Burner Inserters for my Steam Power Plant earlier this morning and filled each one of them manually.



Is there a thread about the nasty habit of Construction Robots from your Personal Roboport taking priority over the normal Logistic Network?

Because I had to stop using the Personal Roboport because of how annoyingly the Construction Robots dumped everything into my inventory even the stuff marked for deconstruction was located in the logistics area of regular roboports. At least I can't deal with that sort of behavior every time I want to deconstruct something... and I don't feel like equipping/unequipping the Personal Roboport all the time.

[waduk]

Ctrl+F, find "Tank".
Not among the bug fix list.
:crying in the corner:

Nah, just kidding, minor bug. I'm sure it will be fixed eventually.

That is the way they made it work. I agree though it is a bad implenamentation as it should have no usage inside a network or let us set each network's priority.

• The delete button in Load Game or Save Game dialogs now asks for confirmation before deleting

THANK YOU. Hopefully this will prevent my 5 year old from deleting all my saves....again...should he sneak onto my computer.

[Stickman]

Changed default maximum range of projectiles from 10^308 to 1000.

So does this mean weapons shoot farther? Or not as far?

[DaveMcW]

It means modders won't accidentally make infinite range weapons, unless they really want to.

You sure a 5-year-old won't just OK the confirmation dialogue?
