Changelog

Version: 1.0.5
Date: 2026-10-23
  Bugfixes:
    - Remove obsolete prototype/style fields reported unused by Factorio 2.1.
    - Rebase all custom loader fixes onto upstream 6f1461a (2.2.5, Factorio 2.1).
    - Retain fixed-axis connected rotation, belt-aware placement, robot blueprint fixes, adoption and belt-matched recipes.
    - Include upstream command replies and disabled_by_script inserter control fixes.

Version: 1.0.4
Date: 2026-10-23
  Compatibility:
    - Declare Factorio 2.1 compatibility.
    - Use underground_belt_neighbour for connected underground endpoints.
    - Recognize the updated Matt's Logistics and Advanced Furnaces forks.

Version: 1.0.3
Date: 2026-10-15
  Features:
    - Add optional affordable belt-matched recipes: one tier-matched transport belt, two inserters and two gears, without recursive loader upgrades.
  Changes:
    - Clarify double-batch crafting, automatic speed conversion and legacy migration setting names.
    - Retain original recipes by default and existing research unlocks.

Version: 1.0.2
Date: 2026-10-15
  Changes:
    - R and Shift-R toggle input/output on an established belt or container connection without turning the connection axis.
    - Preserve free rotation for unconnected loaders; internal conveyors follow the configured input/output flow automatically.
  Info:
    - Verified 1152 actual rotation actions across nine variants and 72 layouts, plus 72 real robot placement and item-transfer cases.

Version: 1.0.1
Date: 2026-10-15
  Bugfixes:
    - Fix crashes when robots or players build or rotate underground belts on Factorio 2.0.77 by using the supported underground neighbour API.

Version: 1.0.0
Date: 2026-10-15
  Major Features:
    - Fork latest upstream Miniloader (Redux) 2.2.4 for Factorio 2.0.77 and newer 2.0 releases.
  Bugfixes:
    - Make R visit all four facings in both input and output modes, with reverse rotation following the inverse cycle.
    - Use the actual rotated or mirrored ghost direction for robot-built tagged blueprints.
  Compatibility:
    - Preserve upstream item and entity names for blueprint and save compatibility.
    - Recover existing upstream loaders under the new fork identity without replacing their physical components.
    - The original miniloader-redux mod must be disabled when this fork is enabled.
