Changelog

Version: 0.5.2
Date: 2026-09-04
  Locale:
    - The shortcut tooltip now explains that in multiplayer only admins can use it unless the
      "Only admins can toggle peaceful mode" map setting is disabled.

Version: 0.5.1
Date: 2026-09-04
  Changes:
    - Removed leftover debug logging code.
    - The README is no longer included in the mod zip; the mod portal page has the up-to-date text.

Version: 0.5.0
Date: 2026-09-04
  Gui:
    - The top-left button is replaced by a toggle in the shortcut bar (next to the blueprint tools).
      Its highlighted state shows the current mode for every player.
    - Added an unbound hotkey (Settings → Controls → Mods) that does the same as the button.
    - Peaceful mode can also be flipped from Mod Settings → Map; the setting always mirrors the state.
  Changes:
    - In multiplayer only admins can toggle by default. Map setting "Only admins can toggle peaceful mode"
      opens it up to everyone.
    - All messages are localised.

Version: 0.4.0
Date: 2026-09-04
  Compatibility:
    - Updated for Factorio 2.1.
  Bugfixes:
    - The peaceful state is now remembered and applied to surfaces created later, so Space Age planets
      and space platforms visited after toggling get the right setting without a second click (#12).
    - The toggle button now updates for every player in multiplayer, not only the one who clicked (#9).
  Changes:
    - Toggling announces the new state and who toggled it in chat.
  Info:
    - Demolishers on Vulcanus are never killed by the toggle; unlike biters they do not respawn. They follow
      the setting live anyway, except that an attack already in progress is finished.
