  • Added cliffs. (https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-219)
Features

  • Map generation dialog now contains a preview of the map.
Minor Features
  • Ctrl-delete now deletes whole word in a text field instead of a single character. (53124)

  • Headless server will automatically save the game when the last player leaves and auto-pause starts.
  • Added support to disable debug settings for non-admin players in multiplayer through the /config command.

  • When holding an offshore pump, all valid build positions will be highlighted.
  • After desyncing in multiplayer, the game will not automatically connect back, instead a dialog with more information will be shown.
  • All map visualisations work also when in zoomed in map mode, where normal view and map view is combined based on radar/player coverage.
Graphics
  • More entities in high resolution: laboratory, radar, worker robots (construction and logistic), combat robots (defender, distractor and destroyer), combinators, electric & circuit wires, pumpjack, storage tank, player, solar panel, lamp, roboport, tank.
  • All terrain now supports high resolution.
  • Blueprint previews and ghost entities now have their walls, pipes and belts connected.

  • Slightly adjusted some recipe craft times to better reflect their ingredient count.
  • Changed the terrain building size limit to be based off the player reach.
  • Biters scale less with distance and there are generally less biters.
  • Resources are much more spread apart. To compensate, patches are larger. Since it's easier to mine, the amount of resources on the map is 3 times less.
  • Resources scale slightly less over distance.
  • No uranium as a starting resource also no uranium is ever generated near the starting area, you need to go look for it.
  • There is 1.49 times more iron on the map to compensate for the extra iron required in a typical game.
Changes
  • Disabled loading of saves before 0.13.0 version (You can use 0.13 to load older saves and re-save them).
  • Train doesn't need to come to a full stop when manually changing train destination or switching from manual to automated mode.

  • It is possible to open/close and interact with the chat console when the map is being saved or server loosing connection dialog is active.
  • The game uses only the cloud version of player-data and achievements on steam to avoid problems with resets.
  • Increased the limit of recipe categories from 255 to 65535.
  • New blueprint no longer includes entities marked for deconstruction.

  • Allow easier dragging of underground pipes and belts when not moving in a perfect straight line.
  • The Arithmetic Combinator can now use a constant as the first parameter, not only the second. So you can do operations like 2^SIGNAL. (51975)
  • When building blueprints, any already existing building of the same entity type will have their settings updated instead of showing red. (51308)
  • The options menu has been organized better. Some options were moved to a new "Interface" settings menu.

What, is that it?
j/k, nice work! :lol:

Question regarding this change:
In multiplayer players can now ride as passengers in cars/tanks.
Can this be somehow used in scenarios, where there's another "engineer" that gets into a car and tells you to "hop in" and then have the car drive automatically somewhere...?

"Improved game startup time when a sufficiently powerful computer is detected."

What does this mean, exactly?

YES! This is excellent, this was always a iron drain!

Tanks no longer take miniscule amounts of damage from hitting trees.
How did you do that? Did you change the armor equation? I mean, The way I understand it, unless you set resistance to 100%, then no matter what, you should take some damage. And if you did that it would remove all collision damage.
