Changelog

Version: 2.5.0
Date: 23. 10. 2024
  Changes:
    - Updated for Factorio 2.0.
    - Added compatibility with Space Age, a 4th tier of loaders/beltboxes will be added if Space Age is active.
    - Turbo loaders/beltboxes are NOT localized in other langs, only Eng.
    - Removed the 'low' graphics as `hr_version` as the low/high split has been removed from the game.
    - Not everything tested, but made sure loaders/beltboxes work.
    - Migrations untested. I wouldn't recommend using an old save in 2.0 in the first place.

Date: 14. 12. 2019

Version: 2.2.2
Date: 28. 09. 2019
  Changes:
    - Attempt to prevent an failure to load when a deleted item is checked for stacking density
Version: 2.2.1
Date: 25. 08. 2019
  Changes:
    - Improves loader snapping for adjacent loaders and inventory snapping belt hints - thanks to meonester on GitHub
    - When auto-unstacking is enabled, automatically unstack items gained via mining an entity - thanks to Doublespin on GitHub
    - Add stack density options for more powers of 2 instead of 10; reminder to understand the maximum stack size implications of these settings; a stack size of 128 will drastically cut the amount of items that can be stored in a train or chest for items that stack to 200.
Version: 2.2.0
Date: 08. 06. 2019
  Changes:
    - Thanks to Linver for adding an Italian translation.
  API:
    - NEW: deadlock.destroy_stack(). This deletes the stacked version of an item, all recipes which use it, and all tech unlocks for those recipes.
    - NEW: deadlock.destroy_vanilla_stacks(). This deletes all the vanilla stacked items and all references to them.
    - deadlock.add_stack() now has an optional extra parameter for specifying mipmap level - this is only ever used if you supply your own icon for the stack.
    - Added warnings in the standard log when deprecated legacy functions are used and a hint to use an alternative.
    - Moved vanilla items-per-tier lists into shared data.
    - Moved item/recipe order meta-tables into shared data.
    - Moved player hand unstacking call out of shared data and into data-final-fixes (to prevent repetitions).
