These two things are especially awesome!

My free service to run a Factorio server now automatically detects new releases. This version was available within 5 minutes of it being posted.

Thanks for the bug fixes and optimization. Geniuenly appreciated!

However, I cannot help but wonder what happened to "we're going to release more hd textures during the beta as they ready up" (paraphrasing)? Did I missunderstand that part?

we have received a couple already. I guess the focus is just more on bugfixing than anything else right now.

Well, I guess, if they would have something finished already, they might have put it into this patch. On the other hand, they might have changed plans and just release all at once. Who knows?

After today's update, my game crashed. I got an error dialogue, telling me to give you my log and game save. I have no idea exactly what caused the crash.

Log and Save: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nfpptxbfzwuv ... HSgMa?dl=0

Mods: RSO, Squeak Through, Nanobots: Early Bots, Autofill, Bottleneck, Upgrade Builder and Planner

I'll also add the dxdiag to the files.

Edit 1: For me at least, this crash is 100% repeatable. In this case, it's caused by the Nanobots mod and will crash the game every time I get close to a ghost it wants to revive. Others say the same happens with any deconstructions using the nanobots of this mod.

Edit 2: The .15.15 hotfix fixed the issue. No more crashes and Nanobots is re-enabled.

I'm getting very reproducable crashes as well. I'll try to upload my stuff.

Better make a report in the bug report section. It might not get picked up properly here.

finally, after more than 2 years this gets fixed! Thanks!

Thank the heavens. This was annoying the crap out of me.

Wasn't just me then. Trying to build rails in my case, and got "Invalid pan value (error code: 255)" printed a lot on the console.

Awesome. Thanks a lot!

Holy crap! The way that north facing inserter bug got fixed is epic as hell!

Any info if there is a hotfix planned - it seems that this version is pretty crashy?

Hotfix 0.15.15 is on the way.

very happy to see the click-drag in blueprint creation was fixed, thats been causing me a lot of headache the last couple days as almost all ive been doing is building up/revising personal libraries.

No idea what is going on, but this is very odd. 2 save games from 2 seconds apart, 1 crashes, the other doesn't.

I can't remember why I even did that.

So is this what's causing my beacons to consume all of the power even when there are no modules in them?

They always used to be stationary and not consume power when there were no modules. Now my base draws 350MW just from empty beacons!
