Oh oh, there goes natural defence walls in modded games.

My 0.17.76 automatic updater does not offer to update version. About -> Check updates says there's no new updates available. Of couse I can install it manually, I just wonder why...

Sorry for the partial rollout, I'll have it fixed in about 30 minutes.

EDIT: Everything should be live now. Today was truly a cursed day to make a release.

This game is going to be legendary even after 10 years. Keep up the great work devs.

Thanks for your hard work! Keep it up.

Factorio is my life-time favorite I'm sure about it. Until Factorio 2 comes I guess. XD

I am getting very slow d/l as of late: < 300 KBps - takes over an hour to get the zip. I have a 100Mbps connection and get < 100ms ping to factorio.com.
Any ideas? Used to be able to d/l in a few minutes.
