Version: 0.3.2
Date: 2026-10-24
  Changelog:
    - Renamed release "dynamic_platform_lighting-Unofficial-2-1Fix" so it can live next to the
      original on the mod portal. Prototype and setting names are unchanged, so saves and your
      settings carry over.
    - Platform lighting state is rebuilt when this mod is added to an existing save (the original
      mod's script state is not carried over under a new mod name).
Version: 0.3.1
Date: 2026-10-24
  Changelog:
    - Factorio 2.1 compatibility (unofficial fork of Talandar's mod). 2.1 moved
      platform_surface_render_parameters from the space platform hub to space locations, so the
      lighting lookup table is now applied to every planet and space location (and the default).
Version: 0.3.0
