- Added faction:GetEntitiesWithRegister()
- Added launch instruction
- Added Mute in background setting
- Make build/produce instructions store the blueprint as a string if it is a complex table with nested tables
- Added GetEntityAt and OrderToSharedStorage instructions
- Added IsSameGrid() instruction
Additional:

- Added paginate widget for orders screen
- New codex entries for rotation and logistics
- Added progress bar back to Re-Simulator
- Add version string to ingame menu
- Command Center can be rebuilt now if deconstructed

UI/QoL Updates
- Try to show boosts in tooltip where applicable
- When switching entity faction (i.e. due to hacking tool) abort orders before switching the faction field
- Increased virus cure range
- Tone down virus spread
- Cure docked entities
- Give the virus cure to the anomalies
- Make RequestItem work at same priority as logistics network
- Allow passing priority to OrderItem
- Don't auto assign to self if you have don't have deliver items selected
- Allow docked units to transfer directly to parent and vice versa
- Add a docked items layout, shown when locking slot of docked item
- Don't override docked drones GOTO register on unpacking if its already set
- Don't build foundations under walls
- Allow deconstructor and turret to work with locations with foundations
- Added foundation to radar filters (only returns ones without buildings on them)
- Allow deconstruction and shooting of foundations with the click action interface
- Multiline tabs in build menu
- Show big buttons during multiselect
- Slightly offset multiselect so edge scrolling works
- Show missing items before showing override items in Solve instruction
- Adjusted anomaly spawns
- Sort array in get_ingredients instruction because of pairs call in simulation
- Moved new game options behind custom game button
- Show error popup "Unable to place into full or fixed item slot" when trying to convert item (i.e. drone package) into another slot that is full or fixed to something else
- Take into account crane range with pickup / dropoff instructions
- Added unit parameter to "have space for item"
- Infected filter now matches glitch bots
- Tooltip, text and graphic fixes / updates
- Fixed the check for store entity being full warning
- Tutorial update
Graphic Updates
- Multiline tabs in build menu
- Show big buttons during multiselect
- Slightly offset multiselect so edge scrolling works
- Show yellow outline around registers with actual entities in them
- Show ping effect at location when moving mouse over register with coordinate and move camera to coordinate when shift clicking it
- Limit intensity of RGB light
- Use number of GOTO register as range when moving
- Graphics optimizations
- Increase blueprint preview quality
Technical Updates/Optimizations
- Make build / produce instructions store the blueprint as a string if it is a complex table with nested tables (This is to avoid the possibility of having deeply nested blueprints in behaviors in blueprints in behaviors which would break the limit of 20 levels of nesting in table serialization)
- Turn on "Prefer D3D12" without fully switching the RHI to be D3D12 exclusive to keep D3D11 as a fallback on older hardware/software (Use -d3d11 if you run into issues)
- Optimized fog
- Local power in the resource bar to include received power in addition to generated
- Make behaviors not create a register for empty values
- Only check frame when checking if the faction has unlocked a bp recipe
- Make Debug.Benchmark Lua function exclusive to mod dev mode
- Translation fixes for unsupported languages showing string tokens
Bug Fixes
- Fix for add / sub to not lose entity / id on values
- Fix crash when Lua tries to log text to the console while the game is shutting down
- Fix for Intel Scanner effect getting stuck on when bot out of power
- This fixes hacking explorables with active orders messing up the faction item availability database which afterwards can cause issues in the order system and lead to save game corruption
- Lua errors for virused component
- Fix for invalid orders crashing on cancel
- Fix to check locked slots when requesting items
- Fixed linking that broke with last build
- Fix for miners not mining
- Fix for blight shield and blight power
- Crash fix when dragging items
- Fix for blight magnifier with infinite resource node
- Fix losing drones or packages when dragging drone or package into a slot that is locked to either empty or a different type
- Log a Lua error if Lua tries to set the entity of an item slot but it can't due to a locking/reserve/stack issue
- Fixed orders involving buildings with cranes
- Fix entity meshes showing at outdated locations while the game is paused and the camera is moved
- Avoid memory leak with off-screen construction sites
- Fix "mute in background" to not require a restart
- Fix for broken item database and illegal faction orders
- Fixed filter on has_item instruction
- Don't crash the game when a mod tries to load an invalid gltf file
- Fixes to power indicator
- Don't error in 'Request Wait' instruction when input value doesn't contain an item id
- Fix subroutines writing to and reading from a parameter not working when the outside call instruction doesn't use said parameter
- Fix buildings with cranes potentially ignoring the STORE register if the crane is busy with other things
