Factorio Forums

• Optimizations
  • The crc check cycles between sets of 10 players, reducing the time of it in crowded games.
• Minor features
  • Disconnecting wires now updates the "last user" tag.
  • Technology progress is preserved when the research is changed before it is completed.
  • Added ignore_player_limit_for_returning_players option to the server-settings and equivalent when hosting from the game.
  • Added in game command /config password <password>. It allows server admins to change the server password.
  • Added in game command /config max-players <number>. It allows server admins to change the maximum number of players.
  • With more than 10 players in multiplayer game, the server only saves the map for joining players once in a while, so the game isn't interrupted by saving every couple of seconds in bigger games. It goes from 1s with 10 players up to 45s with 450 players (which is the maximum).
  • Added only_admins_can_pause_the_game into the server-settings.
• Bugfixes
  • Fixed that you could enter enemy vehicles. (32724)
  • Fixed that zooming the view during pause (via Shift-Space) would teleport the player. (32758)
  • Fixed vehicle machine guns not showing bonuses. (32747)
  • Fixed performance issue on maps with lot of surfaces (for example maps with Factorissimo mod.)
  • Fixed gates not opening for characters soon enough. (32818)
  • Fixed some campaign levels didn't allow interacting with any entities at some places. (32839)

  • Fixed redundant technology requirement. (32886)
  • Fixed server browser playtime column formatting (32942)
  • Fixed crash related to rail-signal connection. (32740)
  • Fixed crash when reconnection attempt is refused. (32937)
  • Fixed that when server quit/dropped, the dialog could be hidden behind menu. (32859)
  • Optimized inserting items to chests with large inventories; this will boost performance for some games with Warehousing mod. (32384)
  • Fixed duplicate mods crashing the game on startup (31790) Instead, a notice box is displayed and the highest (possibly unzipped) version is preferred.
  • Moved the downloading/saving/loading progress bar of other people in a scroll pane so it doesn't cover the whole left part of the screen with a lot of people.
  • Fixed the quickbar selection wouldn't properly update when interacting with other entities in some cases. (32952)
  • Fixed that --benchmark would process its argument differently than all other command-line parameters (32993)
  • Fixed crash when loading game with character in flying vehicle from mod that is over water. (33014)

1. Preverved?? what?
2. If Preserved, this renders my Techsave mod obsolete! The mod I wrote was basically to fix an issue with people trolling and changing it in multiplayer games to prevent progress, Which is bad! So this functionality being part of the base game is a good thing.

Summery: I like it.

You can consider it this way... your mod was so good we decided to add it to the game
