Added LuaGameScript::enemy_has_vision_on_land_mines read/write.

Is it per player/unit or per force?

[seePyou]

Still not declaring this stable Steam has this again under experimental. Wonder what else is left for .37

[posila]

Added LuaGameScript::enemy_has_vision_on_land_mines read/write.

Is it per player/unit or per force?

It's per map. So all or nothing.

They will in a few days if there aren't any major bugs reported. Did they never declare .35 stable?

I believe they did not, I regularly checked the website the past few days. Also, then 0.16.35 would be listed as "stable" on the home page, right?

Ah, probably. I'm guesing they put it off because of the two crashes they fixed in this version. (That sounds about right for these devs - two extremely uncommon crashes? Can't declare that stable! )

Oh come on. At least please make this per surface.

I think it can be nice to realize it based on speed of player and distance from mine. So I can see mines if I stay near of them.

If you stay near enough you will realize them (regardless of being in movement or not).

It blew my mind

• • Fixed that totals in production statistics were 0.33% off. (59063)

I've got to know - how does this happen ?

I've read the original post and laughed a little when I realized he did the whole calculation and figured exactly what the divination was and where - we have some real math fanatics and O.C.Ds in this community. It's -ing me out

I'm curious to see what happens with the new auto-reports for crashes.

Once it's stable, there will likely be a large chunk of gamers (about 43% of the total public servers are on 0.15.x; about 35% of the total are on 0.15.40) getting updated, and will start auto-reporting new crashes...so 0.16.38 may come a few days after that with more crash fixes. That would be yet another feather in their cap for the auto-reports functionality, if so.

I bought Factorio using Gog platform.
But I can download version 0.16.36. The newest version declared as stable is 0.15.40.

The stable updates of .15.xx seemed to come to GOG quite quickly, so I'm confused as to why stable .16 is taking so long as well.

However, if you're feeling impatient, you can go to the game page in your account on the GOG website and click on the "More" button and then choose "Serial Keys".

The provided key can be used to register the game on the factorio.com website (pretty sure its a separate account from the forum account). Once activated you can DL direct from the website, or log in in game and use the update function there.

This is also how you'd download unstable releases if you're interested in that.

Note, if the key is available in Galaxy, I couldn't find it. If you're a Galaxy user I'd say just go to the website in your normal browser to retrieve this key.

I was talking to someone recently, and they're sticking on 0.15.x for now, because one of the mods they like to use hasn't been updated yet.

That sounds really familiar... wasn't there a previous fix of this nature? Not that it matters, just curious.

There is something oddly sinister about Bob in particular saying this.

I personally switched to 0.16.x when 0.16.1 was released, and haven't looked back. keep in mind that 0.16.1 came out hours after 0.16.0, so by the time I got to my computer, 0.16.1 was already out.
