Even if most of my mods are compatible with 0.14 asis...
So if I put "dependencies": ["base >= 0.14.0"], my mod will become incompatible with people who stay in 0.13... Weird, no ?

Logically, ["base >= 0.13.10"] should mean "compatible with 0.14", no ?

Only on a modding point of view, there is not much difference between 0.14.0 and 0.13.18 than between 0.13.17 and 0.13.18 . So why this need to reset ? You did not force us to reset between 0.13.17 and 0.13.18... Mysterious to me... And effectively very annoying when you have more than 20 mods to update...

By the way, I still use Dependencies on base, because sometimes you change API between 2 subversions and the mod is not retro compatible in this case, otherwise people who do not update factorio, but update the mod have problems.
