Use the automatic updater if you can (check experimental updates in other settings) or download full installation at http://www.factorio.com/download/experimental.

Note that the FAQ at http://www.factorio.com/faq still lists Snow Leopard as a supported OS.

Why stable version is still 0.12.20 on Factorio Download site, while 0.12.21 is experimental?

0.12.21 still has to prove itself, there may have been some bugs which haven't shown themselves yet, but If all goes well it should be declared the stable build hopefully soon

Does Devs have any specific period, in which if there is no serious bugs after release, then version comes stable? For example, 2-3 weeks.

Nope, it gets changed when we feel that it's stable enough.

question does this version implement the new style of rail laying?

Nope, this version only has what's written in the first post that's new. The improved rail layer will come later.

It's unusual for the devs to add anything new unless it's a completely new .0 iteration. I'm surprised they even added the new icons for the research/inventory UI, mid-way. My expectation had been that we wouldn't get those until alpha 13.0.

There are two good reasons for the icons.

1. They are needed for the steam release. 0.13 will not be ready for that date. Therefore the icons must go into 0.12.

2. Simply changing the icons most likely doesn't introduce any new bugs. Those dot-releases are for squishing bugs.

I havn't played 0.12.21 yet, but I have played 0.12.20.

Did they update the Iron Plate icon? The "Old" one is stolen straight from a final fantasy game. I'd need to look it up again to know which game.
There were a couple of other obviously stolen ones too, but I can't remember them right now, I know most of them have been replaced already.

The icons that are chemical symbols, such as Petroleum Gas and Sulfuric Acid were also "Stolen" from Wikipedia, however, those icons were posted as a "Free to use" image.

Nope. Keep hanging in there, we'll get it soon enough!

That's the one.

It really does need replacing. I've lost count of how many times I've tried to point it out.
