Factorio is the perfect example of how a game should be made. You guys keeping it up for 8 years are amazing.

To take a break now is as stopping the fff understandable, but maybe there is an option to continue them once something new (expansion like) is on the horizon.

Congratulation! Finally the best game ever can claim it's well deserved stable release!

is anybody factorio client crashing after a save?

i never had it happen to me in the previous version of factorio.

this is something for the Bug Report Subforum.
Little advice on the format.

Giving the freeplay a little bit of introduction is a wonderful idea.
Since spawning those structures can be deactivated, will there be a checkbox in those entities to protect them from accidental mining?

The credits are stylistically a little bit underwhelming. Functional enough maybe for the rather seldomly visited credit tab in the main menu. But have you guys ever considered adding in a credit roll, starting after finishing the game? I’m referring for example to the Minecraft credits (and of cour...

probably duplicate with this and this.
Updated to 0.18.43 and got a crash while trying to open a modded file last saved in 0.18.40.

E.g. Accumulators powers by solar panels, intermittently operating coal miners and steam engines or stored steam in barrels or tanks.
All doable by applying a little bit of circuit network.

Green water finally! I like the idea of using it as pollution indicator.
Also nice work on a bit of biter biome. So the next big run in 2 weeks seems to be set then.

It's unfortune to hear about the launch party, but it is probably a decision for the better.

Using the plain old blueprint for mass placing flooring or landfill should be much more easy with the awaited place from map feature.
Probably even easier than OP’s suggestion of using the upgrade planner.

Mirroring blueprint would be great. I often have to open my browser and go to this specific third party tool to mirror my blueprint, having it ingame (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-M) would be easier. But if I remember correctly, this suggestion has been rejected in the past because some entities cannot be mirrored...

Oh really? That's great. Does it also support swapping modules, e.g. from speed to prod or vice-versa? The upgrade planner is quite flexible considering modules; even in the current version. upgrade_planner.JPG Still don't understand how to upgrade assembly without modules to the one with modules. ...

On another topic, related to upgrade/downgrade planners, would love to be able to include modules in those. Already possible. Oh really? That's great.

Already possible.

Unfortunately there is one thing that I personally find unsettling: In the last video one can see that the scorch mark appears fully on impact. This just makes it look as if it scorched the ground (on the outer end of the mark) before the wave "rolled" over it. Though thermal radiation is...

Also I just realized, that the new nuke behavior is practically a cliff explosive mark II with integrated deforestation tool. At least for later game purposes.

It get‘s from good to better. Very nice finishing touches for the BPs. Maybe you should consider, having a toggle checkbox for the new additional explonations in the interface option menu. And as an additional feature letting the upgrade planer beeing used to fill entities with modules etc. from scr...
