most importantly: I think it's at a point where you can read through the rules once and understand them.

And I think it's also at a point where you can skip the Core rules and still understand basically everything you need to know.

If I'm wrong, and there's anything you're not sure about, please let me know!

to be clear: the *words* "enact" and "repeal" have been removed, and replaced with more common words, like "add" and "remove"

The most notable change is that "enact" and "repeal" have now been removed from the rules entirely.

The second most notable change is that I removed 2 of the rules: one of the rules was redundant, the other one just confused people.

Something else of note is that I removed all references to "amendments of amendments of a rule" — it made sentences long and confusing, and you can easily achieve the same thing without it.

All the other changes are noted in the Errata section.

wait, factorio 0.17 is out!

@efi wait, it's already out!

@efi slep well!

@efi oh, I've been looking forward to 0.17, I didn't realise it would be out so soon

@chao it includes you too!

ok, for my next game, I'm using the railworld preset (big ore patches far apart, biters don't expand), but modified so that:
• biter evolution is much slower
• each ore patch is richer than normal

@efi this is all good ideas, but none of it was the actual stuff I was dealing with – my problems were more "oh, we ran out of coal so the steam engines weren't producing power"

What's a hardpoint?

@efi I usually would have by now!

But things keep popping up that I need to deal with ("oh, we don't have any power because of X", "oh, this train has crashed because the biters destroyed the track", etc)
