Features
- Added filter to splitter.
- Added input and output priority to splitter.
Minor Features
- Added a "clone group" button to the permissions GUI.
- Added PvP options: Spectator fog of war, starting chests, chest item multiplier, team areas turrets, automatic round time, and base exclusion time.
Balancing
- Increased the stack size of roboport from 5 to 10.
- Decreased collision box of substation, radar and chemical plant so it is possible to walk between it and other entities.
Bugfixes
- Fixed that rail chain signals didn't work with copy-paste. more
- Fixed that double clicking the empty space in scroll bars on the load/save map GUIs would trigger the load/save. more
- Fixed that walking near the edge of water could result in no footstep sounds. more
- Fixed building belts over splitters marked for deconstruction while a ghost belt was under the splitter didn't work. more

- Fixed that the bonus GUI didn't show correct numbers for some bonuses. more
- Fixed that a single water tile that separates two terrain types would become invisible. more
- Added graphics option "Separate lower object atlas" to address performance issue when rendering lot of decoratives on some PCs.

Modding
- Removed terrain_collision_box from fish prototype. To prevent fish with non-zero collision box from blocking offshore pump placement, default collision mask of fish has flag 'colliding-with-tiles-only'. more
- Disabled recipes won't be cleared from an assembling machine ghost, if the assembling machine prototype has fixed_recipe set.
- Entity of type offshore pump can be rotated on ground if flag 'filter-directions' is not set. more
