Changelog

Version: 2.2.24
Date: 2026-10-31
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed a crash when the game loads: the top bar button icon and the energy icon told the game to read a rectangle bigger than the image file (45 x 45 pixels from a 30 x 30 file, 48 x 48 from a 32 x 32 file at the default GUI scale), and Factorio stops with "The given sprite rectangle is outside the actual sprite size". The GUI scale setting now sets the sprite scale, so the icons are the same size as before at every GUI scale from 0.5 to 3.0 (issue: 2.2.23 Sprite Crash)

Version: 2.2.23
Date: 2026-10-28
  Bugfixes:
    - Blueprint orders: the setup handler matches each blueprint entity against the force trader list and falls back to an offset from the selected area, so a blueprint no longer saves an empty order list (issue #98)

Version: 2.2.22
Date: 2026-10-28
  Bugfixes:
    - The credits on the top bar now refresh after an automatic sale or purchase, so the wallet and the market window no longer disagree
    - The buy menu no longer crashes when the remembered item group is gone after a mod change or a price rescan

Version: 2.2.21
Date: 2026-10-28
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed the mod failing to load beside a modpack that points the vanilla storage tank at its own upgrade target (Space Exploration): a copied prototype no longer inherits next_upgrade
    - Blueprints, blueprint books, planners and remotes are no longer priced or tradable, so empty blueprints cannot be sold for credits
    - Recipes named request-* are ignored when computing prices (Transport Drones)
    - The price pass no longer aborts when an item has no recipe on the player force
    - Fixed the changelog format so the mod list parses it

Version: 2.2.20
Date: 2026-10-28
  Changes:
    - Updated to Factorio 2.1
    - Removed the flib dependency (it was no longer used)
    - Replaced the flib table helpers with the Lua standard library, so the mod loads without flib
    - Fixed circuit wires: the red wire now works, and the green wire still works
    - Fixed fluid trading: 2.1 removed LuaEntity.fluidbox and renamed remove_fluid, so the fluid content is read with get_fluid_contents and drained with extract_fluid
    - Fixed the debug log writer for 2.1: game.write_file moved to helpers.write_file
