DO NOT MAKE BUG REPORTS HERE PLEASE!

If you find bugs, post them in Bug reports after reading 54634 and 3638.

Yes. I feel guilty for getting this 0.16 patch for free. You guys deserve getting more money from me, because of your excellent service.

Thank you! This was driving me nuts.

My bug report was fixed in only 21 minutes, as can be seen from this thread. Of course, I still had to wait till the following day, for the next release.

Factorio Team is setting a new standard for bug fixing, showing everyone else how this should be done. Together with Friday Facts, it shows how dedicated and open a design team can be.

You are the gold standard and reference to everyone else in the industry.

Please don't change!

Didn't notice the release until today, figuring it would come on friday along with the FF post, but well, here we are
Only thing I want to ask is, can you please make it a toggleable option to have cliffs spawn in the starting area as well? I posted around last friday to the same effect too: it's much more enjoyable to me to have to figure out creative solutions to the environment with every new map I start, rather than to have a flat area every single time that doesn't do anything interesting to dictate how I build my factory.

What I really want out of Factorio in the long run is reasons to keep mixing up my designs. As it stands, it's too easy to build the same factory on new maps. It's an issue the Anno games suffer from as well, at least on the larger islands, where I feel like I'm building the same city with the same layout over and over again, because that's how it works best for me. Cliffs/rivers/lakes and forests need to spawn a bit more, or in more interesting shapes I think.

On that same note, it'd be an interesting option to have, to not be able to destroy cliffs and the like. Again, toggleable, because many people seem very eager to blow up all the interesting bits as soon as they can.
