Hello mates!

A new update for Craftomation 101 has arrived — packed with highly requested quality-of-life improvements, interface upgrades, and bug fixes. Thanks a lot for all the feedback and suggestions you've been sending our way. This update contains several features directly inspired by player requests.

Navigation Improvements

One of the most requested changes is finally here!

Now, when switching between robots using the next/previous buttons, robots are selected in the exact order you arranged them inside the navigation menu.

No more mysterious robot roulette. Your carefully organized production empire finally respects your organizational genius.

New Hotkey for Craftomat Speed

We added a hotkey for switching Craftomat speed settings. Faster automation tweaking, fewer clicks, more science.

Pause / Resume Controls

Added a global pause/resume button for all robots

Added separate pause/resume controls for individual robots

Added controls for entire robot groups in the navigation menu

Perfect for when one tiny robot decides to become "creative" with your factory layout.

New Code Block Connection Setting

We added a separate option to disable automatic code block connections when placing new blocks.

For players who prefer cleaner manual programming control — this one's for you.

Bug Fixes

Fixed very long loading times for some player save files
Fixed Get Element behavior for arrays — now works correctly with connected coordinate/type arrays
Fixed text issues in several menus
