Factorio megabase mod#

In effect each section of pipe can be updated independently of other pipe sections. We have massively optimised (and parallelized) the fluid update in 0.17.

The in-game mod browser has also been redone to help find new mods and manage your installations. This massively reduces the friction for joining modded servers.

Now when trying to join your favorite server, you can directly sync your mods with the server from in-game, and automatically join once they are all installed. As well as a graphical overhaul, the attacks and balancing of the spitters and worms has been revised, incorporating skill-based elements and some tactical decision making. The enemies in the game, the native inhabitants of the planet, have received a major facelift in this update. The new editor also allows collaborative map editing in multiplayer. Packed with new features and improvements, such as cloning tools, multiple surface support, and time control. The new map editor can be accessed directly in-game with the /editor command. We are going to be continuing our work on 0.17 over the next few months, with small experimental releases of new features, and finishing all the GUI reworks. Now is the time to let it be enjoyed by all the players of the game. It has been 6 months and nearly 70 releases since we first launched 0.17 to the world.
