Upcoming releases
Posted: Sun Aug 16, 2020 9:03 pm
I was wondering today how future releases will be managed. The "resolved for the next release" bugfixes section is already reasonable filled and I would expect a new release soon (if the pre 1.0 pace continues). All infos I could find was in factorio.com/blog/post/fff-360
My questions are:kovarex wrote: ↑Fri Aug 14, 2020 9:02 amThe plan for 1.1
We were doing the best we could, to fix all the relevant bugs and issues for the 1.0 release, but we just couldn't do everything. So we had to prioritise just the more critical stuff. We would still like to address all of the remaining issues as there are currently around 150 bugs on the forums and around 80 internal tasks to be solved. The plan is to eventually go through all of them, and decide on how to resolve each one.
A good example is, that we have a "continue" button, but it just ignores multiplayer. You press continue automatically just to find out, that you are building alone for half an hour. It is my (kovarex) personal story actually.
This means, that 1.1 is going to just focus on filling the most obvious gaps in our existing feature set, not on adding some new major content.
- Will the next release be a 1.0.1 or 1.1.0 ?
- Will the next release be immediately marked stable (like 1.0) or experimental (like 0.18)?
