Changelog

Version: 2.0.0
Date: 2024.10.21
  Info:
    - Updated to work with Factorio v2.0
    - Note: Spidertron remotes seem like they can only control spidertrons on the planet where you are looking, so this mod can only show you spidertrons on that planet as well
Version: 1.5.2
Date: 2020.11.29
  Changes:
    - (For 1.1 branch) Made GPS tags clickable when player is on surfaces other than Nauvis.  GPS tags are still only clickable for the surface you're currently standing on - an old tag in chat history will not be clickable if you change surfaces.
Version: 1.5.0
Date: 2020.11.26
  Info:
    - Marked as compatible with Factorio v1.1
Version: 1.4.2
Date: 2020.11.29
  Changes:
    - (For 1.0 branch) Made GPS tags clickable when player is on surfaces other than Nauvis.  GPS tags are still only clickable for the surface you're currently standing on - an old tag in chat history will not be clickable if you change surfaces.
Version: 1.4.1
Date: 2020.08.31
  Changes:
    - Add option to show internal entity name in the list (per-player).  Mostly to help if you are trying to figure out entity names for the settings added in 1.4.0
Version: 1.4.0
Date: 2020.08.27
  Changes:
    - Add option to only show specific vehicles in the list (per-player, default is to show all vehicles)
    - Add option to never show specific vehicles in the list (per player)
    - Use localized names instead of internal entity names in the list.  Should be a lot nicer for modded vehicles.
Version: 1.3.0
Date: 2020.08.24
  Changes:
    - Autofocus on linked Spidertron when holding a remote (per-player setting, default on)

Version: 1.0.2
