Minor Features
Added radar minimap visualization for roboports and cargo landing pads. https://forums.factorio.com/117994
Cargo pod scheduling reworked to send larger and more spaced out deliveries. This should improve the frequency of trickling space science and material drops.
Dragging and dropping a blueprint file into the game window will import the file contents as a blueprint string.
Dragging and dropping text into the game window on X11 will import the text as a blueprint string.
Factoriopedia now shows recycling recipes for each item.
Re-added the sandbox scenario questionnaire.
Added "Nauvis Bus" and "Nauvis Power Up" menu simulations.
Added camera views to Space platform tooltips.
Balancing
Changed rocket fuel from ammonia recipe to require the same amount of solid fuel as the main rocket fuel recipes to prevent a recycling loop. https://forums.factorio.com/122574
Land mines on space platforms now damage the space platform tiles in a radius.
Changes
Attack groups containing stompers or strafers will now contain fewer units.
Changed selector combinator circuit wire reach to be the same as wire reach of other combinators.
Inserters (especially ghost long handed ones) spawn in stretched to an appropriate distance.
Large egg rafts will try to have at least one stomper or strafer spawned at a time.
Removed default secondary keybinding for redo action on AZERTY keyboards as it collided with super force building while moving up. https://forums.factorio.com/124377
Reverted fix for god controller being able to zoom out to map view. https://forums.factorio.com/123675
Small egg rafts no longer absorb pollution because they will never produce stompers or strafers.
Space age mods no longer count as "has mods" in the server browser. https://forums.factorio.com/117812
Tweaked how entities are selected in remote view when using a gamepad. The entity directly under the crosshair is much more likely to be selected.
Wrigglers will no longer proactively attack pollen emitters. However, they will still respond to artillery.
Graphics
Aquilo icebergs have longer shadows to integrate with the world better.
Asteroid collector tentacles have less colourful rainbow effect on them.
Changed the Rocket part icon to look more like a part of the rocket.
Changed the Space crafting category icon to look like a cargo pod instead of rocket silo.
Optimizations
Improved GUI performance when logistics status diode is part of the structure. https://forums.factorio.com/124660
Improved asteroid collector performance - we estimate it should be 5x - 15x faster when there are thousands of asteroid chunks on the map. https://forums.factorio.com/118736
Improved asteroid update performance by up to 20%.
