Changelog

Version: 2.0.3
Date: 2024-10-28
  Changes:
    - Added clarification to setting names to show which settings only apply if you use the "Custom" mode for randomizing properties
  Bugfixes:
    - Fixed alphabetic sorting of properties in mod settings
    - Moved the automated logic to check if items have a stack size of 1 so those items can be excluded from stack size randomization from the data stage into the data-lua stage, which should help avoid issues with mods (including Space Age) adding prototypes before the config file is loaded
  Mod compatibility:
    - fixed conflict with Fluid Level Indicator mod

Version: 2.0.2
Date: 2024-10-24
  Changes:
    - Space Age DLC: Quality module effect now also gets randomized with the "Randomize Modules" setting enabled

Version: 2.0.1
Date: 2024-10-24
  Bugfixes:
    - fixed module slots not getting randomized in factorio 2.0

    - fixed Vision Radar recipes are now blacklisted

Version: 2.0.0
Date: 2024-10-23
  Notes:
    - Some of the changes and bugfixes affect existing games. Most should not have a big impact, the only major change is with armor resistances.
  Changes:
    - updated for factorio version 2.0. Due to the large number of changes to the game, it is possible that there will be more mod conflicts. Please report them if you experience it, and will try to deal with them as soon as possible.
    - rounding ingredient amounts now rounds to 2 digits instead of 3
    - added equipment grid size lower bounds
    - changed how armor resistances get randomized. they overall vary less now, and getting 100% resistances is no longer common.
    - reordered the ingame settings so that the property toggles are alphabetical
  Bugfixes:
    - fixed: matching_blacklist and recipe_blacklist both did not work properly
    - fixed: the rounding to nearest prime setting now actually uses the nearest prime as intended
    - fixed: wrong formatting in blacklist entry "converter-other"
    - fixed: Heat exchangers now get randomized depending on the "Randomize power production" setting instead of energy usage setting
  Documentation:
    - rearranged config.lua so relevant info like blacklists is at the top

  Changes:
