Changelog

Version: 2.1.2
Date: 2026-09-10

  Features:
    - The RITEG now works as a heat source for the buildings and heat pipes that touch it, about 100 degrees, warm enough against the frost of a cold planet and too cold for a heat exchanger. Suggested by tabr. It only exists with a mod that brings the freezing mechanic, Space Age for example, and it can be switched off in the startup settings.
  Bugfixes:
    - Update to Factorio 2.1. Every function of the control script lived in the top scope, and writing there is not allowed anymore.
    - Fixed that updating the mod added every existing RITEG to the list a second time, so it got a second glow and was handled twice per round.
    - Fixed that the glow of a RITEG was never removed, it only disappeared with the entity itself.
    - Fixed that vehicle_impact_sound was still used, 2.0 replaced it by impact_category, so the RITEG had no impact sound.
    - Fixed that a dropped ingredient left a hole in the ingredient list of the recipe, which breaks the length of that list for every mod that looks at it afterwards.
    - Added the localisation keys of the recycling recipes, one of them was reported as missing.
    - Removed the leftover hardness of the mining properties, it has not existed for a long time.
  Changes:
    - The build and mine events are filtered by name now instead of comparing the name of every entity of the game.
    - The list of RITEGs is rebuilt from the surfaces on a configuration change, and a heat source without its RITEG is cleaned up.
    - The item list of the ingredient repair comes from the game instead of being written down by hand.
    - Removed recycling.pdn from the release, it is an image source.
    - The heat buffer of the hidden heat source keeps the default temperature at zero, the engine wants min_working_temperature to be at least the default temperature. The control script sets the working temperature right after it creates the entity.
