Changelog

Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2026-01-31
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed electric poles not connecting copper wires after ghost revive. Now uses create_entity instead of revive for electric poles, so the engine handles wire connections automatically (vanilla tree-building algorithm, no wire spiderweb).
    - Fixed old tile items being destroyed when constructing tile ghosts on top of existing tiles. Replaced tiles are now returned to player inventory (or dropped on ground if full).

Version: 1.0.9
Date: 2026-01-18
  Features:
    - Added automatic module insertion when building ghosts with module requests.
    - Added support for module upgrade requests (item-request-proxy) - modules marked for quality upgrade are now automatically replaced.
    - Ghosts can now be built immediately while holding items in cursor (shift-build mode).
  Changes:
    - Refactored entity upgrade function to use native apply_upgrade() API method instead of manual create_entity.
    - Removed non-existent parameter from revive() API call.
    - Major performance optimization: scan() now uses filtered queries (to_be_deconstructed, to_be_upgraded, type filters) instead of iterating all entities. Filtering is done by C++ engine instead of Lua.
    - Cached player settings lookup in scan() to avoid redundant API calls.
    - Old modules are now returned to player inventory when replaced (instead of being destroyed).
    - If inventory is full, replaced modules are dropped on the ground near the entity.
    - Item check now includes both main inventory and cursor stack for ghost construction.
    - Major code refactoring: extracted 12 reusable helper functions (get_quality_name, item_stack, give_item_to_player, has_item, get_item_count_with_cursor, remove_item_with_cursor, add_to_plan, save_inserter_held_items, restore_inserter_lost_items, insert_modules, build_slot_plan, process_module_slots).
    - Code reorganized into logical sections with clear separators.
  Locale:
    - Fixed typos in Russian localization.
    - Added localization for all Factorio-supported languages: German, French, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Polish, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian, Czech, Hungarian, Romanian, Ukrainian, Turkish.
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed items being destroyed when downgrading inserters with larger hand capacity to smaller (e.g. green/stack to blue/fast). Items that don't fit in new inserter's hand are now returned to player inventory.
    - Fixed instant deconstruction/construction/upgrade modes not processing all entities (was limited to 1 per tick due to optimization).
    - Fixed potential crash when deconstructing tiles without hidden_tile property.
    - Fixed module replacement not checking quality - could incorrectly replace modules with different quality.
    - Fixed early loop exit in construct/upgrade functions when instant mode enabled.
    - Fixed crash when deconstructing special entities from mods like PY or Flow Control (added entity.minable check and pcall protection).
    - Fixed crash when constructing special entities where item name differs from entity name (e.g. Flow Control pipes).
    - Fixed set_tiles() not raising events for other mods (added raise_event=true and player parameters).
    - Fixed entity.destroy() not passing player parameter to event handlers.
    - Fixed tiles marked for deconstruction not being processed (deconstructible-tile-proxy requires separate search by name, not caught by to_be_deconstructed filter).
    - Fixed tile deconstruction using player.mine_tile() instead of manual set_tiles() - properly handles items and events.
