Version 2.1.21

Minor Features

• Added index comparator to selector combinator. Allows for selection of N highest or N lowest signals.

• Added quick pipette: pressing key related to empty quickbar slot will invoke pipette and set the slot with the pipette result.

Balancing

• Retuned asteroid damage.
• Adjusted space platform drag to be based on weight rather than width.

Changes

• Fixed electric turrets could consume energy even if they failed to shoot due to range condition. (136349)
• Fixed that large numbers of mods would cause https trafic to fail on MacOS. (136326)
• Fixed that GUI elements with negative margins wouldn't stretch to fill their parent. (118119)
• Fixed that boilers with no output fluid filter could generate a fluid with a temperature outside of the fluid's limits, causing a crash.
• Fixed that unit groups set to 'wandering' could ignore new commands. (135511)
• Fixed logistic section multiplier floating point math caused numbers to be 1 smaller in some cases. (136355)
• Fixed issues with 'drop item' hotkey and dynamic inventories. (135951)
• Fixed that rocket silos launched to orbit automatically when they still had inventory space. (129708)

• Fixed that nightvision with a darkness_to_turn_on of 0 was not always on. (134908)
• Fixed that "Not enough to fill one rocket" message was visible in the tooltip of space platform requests when the platform was full. (134733)
• Fixed that "Waiting on a higher priority request" message was visible when it shouldn't and reworded it to match slot reservation behavior. (135641)
