What changed between public versions of BlockFactory, from a player's point of view. The newest version is at the top.
The first public version contains the whole game from the first drill to the Great Portal. Most numbers are starting values and will change with balancing.
- World: a world generator of its own with a flat steppe, infinite ore fields, oil wells, uranium fields, lakes, rivers, ruins and enemy nests. No vanilla blocks to dig, no vanilla recipes or mobs. See The World and Factory, Not Sandbox.
- Start: you wake up in a cryo capsule in the bunker, with start gear in the lockers.
- Factory: belts, grabbers, drills, furnaces, Fabricators, chests, all simulated even when no player is near.
- Research: Research Centers, Knowledge Scrolls, the Outlander Test Site and Research Capsules for alternate recipes.
- Creatures: rebuild the Portal of the Ancient and summon Goblins, Outlanders and Golems. Goblin Huts form logistics and construction networks; the Goblin Planner copies, pastes, deconstructs and upgrades.
- Epochs 1 to 5: steam power, fluids, railways, oil, the Programmable Interface, Rune Modules and nuclear power, up to the Great Portal.
- Danger: enemies driven by noise and unrest, weapons, armor, towers and walls, vehicles, death chests (Death and Respawn).
- Multiplayer: teams, raids and PvP rules.
- Languages: English and German. More are welcome, see Translating.
New versions can change the world generator or the save format. A world from an older version then may not load. The Installation page says what to do before you update.
