Version: 1.3.0
Date: 2026-03-12
  Changes:
    - Beltlikes sections no longer require all beltlikes to be of the same tier, as this did not provide tangible gameplay benefits and made belt upgrades needlessly awkward. (Old behavior can be enabled using the setting "Beltlikes section: Same tier only" in mod startup settings.)
  Minor Features:
    - Changed the beltlike entity section status display to show [speed_index] [status_icon] [required_power] text.
  Balancing:
    - Changed brushless-belt-engine recipe to require 6 electronic-circuit instead of 4 advanced-circuit.

Version: 1.1.1
Date: 2026-03-09
  Bugfixes:
    - Fix for section resolve when the mod incorrectly identified the previous shape of the output belt of the newly built belt
    - Fix for incorrect comparison of versions when migrating from version from versions before 1.1.0 that were leading to re-evaluation of beltlikes on save load (not affecting integrity of the save)
    - Fix for crash on existing save when mod tried to do migration and old_version was not present

Version: 1.1.0
Date: 2026-03-09
  Major Features:
    - Variable speed of belt-like entities in a section depending on the ratio of engine power to the power required by the section; you can trade speed for section size.
  Features:
    - Belt-like entities with different speeds no longer have different names; a custom status is now applied that reflects their speed.
    - Section divider recipe, item, and entity prototypes and their icons are auto-generated from their base belts.
  Optimizations:
    - Belt-engine state is re-evaluated faster when the player builds an electric pole in its range.
    - Drastically improved performance of processing belt engine states by 5-6x.
    - Improved performance of building, rotating, and removing belts and belt engines for large belt-like entity sections.
  Bugfixes:
    - Blueprint now correctly interacts with belts.
    - Upgrade and deconstruction planners now correctly interact with belts.
    - Upgrade planner can be applied to belt engines.
    - Case where a T junction is formed at a turn belt or in similar cases and belt sections were not recalculating.
    - Error when belt-like sections were not correctly re-evaluated when their configuration changed due to building, rotating, or removing adjacent belts.
    - Error when belt-like sections were not correctly re-evaluated when underground belts were built.
