Changelog

Version: 1.0.4
Date: 2025-03-28
  Changes:
    - Reworked internal formula logic for research cost calculation.
      The scaling now uses (L - 8) to ensure the first infinite research level (tech level 8)
      uses the configured base value as its cost.
    - Both linear and exponential scaling modes have been adjusted accordingly.
    - This provides consistent and predictable cost progression for all future levels.
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed an issue where formulas based on incorrect L-offsets led to unintentional
      cost spikes or drops for the first infinite research.
  Localization:
    - Updated English and German locale files to reflect the corrected (L - 8) formula logic.
    - Formula descriptions now match actual behavior in-game.
    - Clarified what "L" refers to (the actual research level in-game, starting at 8).
  Internal:
    - Cleaned up comments and structure in data.lua.
    - Special thanks to the Factorio modding community for feedback and input!
