Changes

• Changed the mods GUI so it lists mod settings by mod alphabetically using natural ordering.

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

Thanks. This makes it much easier to find settings, esp. when I don't know the name of what I'm looking for.

Great job, guys.
Have you thought about adding "last used colours" or "favourite colours" to the engine and train stop?
I like to have colours of my engines match train stops and colours of my train stops define factory or mining site.

Because copying train stop settings copies also name and options, which is not always favourable.

If you want to copy colors only: copy Train -> Station, or Station -> Train. IIRC this copies color only.

That said, I'd still love some saved/favorite color section so I don't have to write down each one to setup all the colors again in a new save.

Or perhaps even associating the colors with the named station? So if I set up a station "Iron Ore Loading," and color it a particular way, then create another train stop and select that name from the list, it auto-populates with the same color?

Anyone experiencing slower save times after this update? It's considerably and noticeably slower. I'm using bobs/angels mods.

With .38 I got occasional dips to 40/40 FPS/UPS but with this version I'm getting frequent and sustained dips to 30/30. Looking at the F5 output doesn't tell me anything. I'm running lots of mods - what's the best way of tracking down the culprits? Please don't say disabling them one by one.

Create a topic in the Technical Help subforum with a screenshot of your timings debug data, and maybe your logfile.

A big thank you for sorting the mods alphabetically in the mod settings menus! It's much easier now to find a mod.

That being said, there still is something that prevents alphabetic sorting for all mods. It seems like mods with an icon next to the name are listed after all other mods:
The mod displayed here is Rocket-Silo Construction, and I can't figure out why its name is shown together with the icon. Anyway, among the many mods that I've installed, that's only one that isn't sorted correctly, and I can live with it. And the fact remains that the sorting is much more sane now than it was before!

Best if you put that into bug reports. I would by I am not sure how to move it correctly.

Done!

I'm a global moderator myself, on another forum using phpBB. The admin set the language to German, so button labels and menu entries will differ from the ones used here. Anyway, in that other forum I can open a thread, go to "Moderation area", select the post I want to act upon by marking the checkbox next to it, and choose an action from the pull-down list. Among the options, there should be something like "Separate selected postings". Once you've done that, you should be able to move that posting to another forum. (It's a long time I've done stuff like that, and I didn't want to mess unnecessarily with the postings, so I couldn't test this recipe -- but that's how I would try it!)

Thanks, I have seen that option but did not want to break anything.
