Changelog

Version: 0.1.4
Date: 2026-11-06
  Features:
    - The crane picks the emptiest destination bay, so the storage banks stay level while it
      loads or unloads instead of only when it is idle
    - A crane can serve a bay whose counterpart is missing: it picks cargo at one bay and carries it
      sideways to another bay, so one storage chest can feed two wagons
  Bugfixes:
    - Crane throughput scales with the inserter capacity research of its force, so a crane stays
      equivalent to the configured number of bulk inserters for the whole game
    - Mod settings no longer show "unknown key" (locale for names and descriptions added)

Version: 0.1.3
Date: 2026-11-06
  Changes:
    - Demo scenario: the schedule waits for a full load at the provider and an empty train at the
      quay, so every trip is a complete load
    - Demo scenario: power comes from a substation fed by an electric energy interface instead of a
      burner generator, and the eastern bank drains through two bulk inserters into void chests

Version: 0.1.2
Date: 2026-11-06
  Bugfixes:
    - Demo scenario: the whole test dimension is empty - every chunk is painted as it appears, so
      there is no grass outside the quay
    - Demo scenario: provider station, crane, banks and requester stand from the first tick, and the
      provider loads the wagons with real bulk inserters instead of script transfers
  Changes:
    - Demo scenario: the train carries two wagons at the quay stop so the crane's bays are the station
    - Demo scenario: two crane yards - the provider crane loads (shore to ship) from infinity chests,
      the quay crane unloads into two banks, the eastern bank drains into a void chest
    - Several cranes can share the same support rows on one surface: a row is split where the bay
      pitch is interrupted

Version: 0.1.1
Date: 2026-11-06
  Major Features:
    - Gantry cranes formed by four 1x2 gantry crane supports over a storage yard
    - Ship-to-shore transfers from cargo wagons standing at a station
    - Automatic balancing between the storage bays underneath the crane
  Features:
    - Crane window: ship-side distance, shore-side distance, transfer direction, arm flip
    - R flips the ship side of the crane
    - Pickup and dropoff point markers while hovering the crane
    - Throughput configurable in bulk inserter equivalents (default 16)
    - Demo scenario on its own empty surface: provider station, train, biased storage banks and a
      requester, showing STS unloading and balancing side by side
  Graphics:
    - Generated sprites for support, rail deck, legs, girder, cab, trolley and spreader
  Balancing:
    - Load size follows the STS trip so a transfer averages the configured inserter throughput
  Locale:
    - English and German
