Blueprints are out of place after turning them once. Even new created ones

Fixed that modded roboports with no charging slots were still considering as charging candidates

Ohhhh I like that one

Indeed, now maybe I can disable the charging abilities of Bob's mods logistics range extenders, so my bots won't keep getting stuck in a queue waiting for its single charging slot, and instead use the 9-slot dedicated charging pads!

• Scripting
  • LuaUnitGroup::add_member now requires that the new member's force be the same as the UnitGroup's.

Doesnt this prevent the opportunity for an allied team to give another team some of their zerg slaves ? Is there really a benefit to forcing the teams to be the same other than preventing "oops" situations, which honestly should just be debugged, not prevented. Unless this only meant that add_member will update the traded units force affiliation and not prevent.

If you want to add_member first change the force of the entity to match the group you want to add it to.

Nothing concerning networking was postponed, improving UDP file transfer is in 12.31, matching servers are planned for 0.13.

[*]Improved map download speed when connecting to multiplayer game. (20532)

Is this intended to fix viewtopic.php?f=49&t=23353 as well? I'm not sure if I need to get my friend group to test again.

For some reason I didn't actually consider this one to be a bug, so didn't report it, even though it was causing issues for me when modding.

I guess now that the issue is solved, I can go back and look at my Robochest and Logistic Zone Expander, and remove the single charging point, to see what happens.

Though, I think there is still the issue that only fully charged robots can dock at a chest, meaning they'll still hover waiting to be charged.

When is this expected to be released to steam? My client hasn't updated yet and I did check to make sure I was set to download the latest version.

I think you need to tell Steam to opt into experimental updates on the Betas tab if you right click the game in your library.

Most definitely felt like a bug, I use to avoid Robochest and Logistic Zone Expander in your mods because they always end up with 100+ bots stuck charging slowly on them while the charging pad next to them was empty.

Yup I tried to fix your mod on my side and the robochest are still aggroing bot and they get stuck since there no charging port.

Thanks, I didn't realize this was an experimental release.
