Added new planet Aquilo, a freezing planet with new resources, structures, items, recipes and technologies focussed on cryogenics.
Introduced quality, which is additional property of item, entities and equipment. (Friday Facts #375) Most entities, equipment, modules and ammo have various kind of bonuses with higher quality.
Added rail ramps, rail supports and elevated rails to build bridges. (Friday Facts #378)
Added stack inserters (previous stack inserters are called bulk inserters now) which can load transport belts with layered stacks of items. (Friday Facts #393)
New rail shapes, rail curves, 22.5 degree tracks.
Added Train interrupts (Friday Facts #389, Friday Facts #395) Trains can have number of interrupts, each interrupt has conditions and set of stops. Whenever is the train leaving a station, the first interrupt with fulfilled condition is activated, which adds its stations as temporary items into the schedule.
Added Train groups. (Friday Facts #389) Train name is editable and trains with the same name are considered to be in the same group. Editing schedule of a train automatically updates schedules of all the trains in the same group.
Added Logistic groups. (Friday Facts #382) Logistic group is editable for logistic points (Requester chest, Roboport, Character, Spidertron, etc.). Editing the requests of a logistic point automatically updates requests of all the points in the same group.
Added Factoriopedia. (Friday Facts #397) It provides detailed information about different kind of objects. Alt clicking any relevant gui element or game entity opens the related page.
Forced building will now automatically adds missing landfill or other other tiles based on context.
Added super forced building mode. Ctrl + Shift + Build marks for deconstruction player's colliding entities and replaces ghosts and tiles. (Friday Facts #383)
Added search to the remote view. It allows to do surface wide search for recipe production, resources and train stations and map tags. (Friday Facts #400)
Blueprint parametrisation. Allows to make more generic bluprints, which are configured upon building. (Friday Facts #392)

Added a third graph to the electric network overview to track the charges of accumulators over time. (Friday Facts #408)
Added a new alert for construction and logistic robots that can't find free space in a roboport.
Added a new alert for trains failing to pathfind to their target. (Friday Facts #395)
Added a new alert for turrets running out of ammunition. It only sounds once right when the ammo is used up.
Added fuel condition to the train schedule.
Added condition to the train schedule to check whether a specific station is full or not.
Added an option for a locomotive to update its color automatically based on the color of the target train stop. (Friday Facts #389)
Smarter worker robot scheduling. Worker robots have task queue now which allows the planner to choose the robot that will be able to get to the destination fastest, even if it is doing something else at the moment.
Robot requests in roboports.
Added Flipping as a primary action to flip entities horizontally or vertically. Works on items in hand placed on the surface or ghosts. AssemblingMachines can now be mirrored by flipping them, allowing additional fluid box configurations. Bound to F (Horizontal) & V (Vertical) by default.
Upgrade planner can install new modules into machines, this is done by leaving the source slot empty and setting up only the destination slot.
Upgrade planner module upgrade/install can have machine filter and maximum count per machine specified.
Upgrade planner now has dynamic size, similar to the blueprint library. The size is capped at 250 rows now.
Added a way to create module/fuel requests in entities remotely by clicking with ghost item in hand. (Friday Facts #380)

Added latency hiding for cars (and tanks).
Rocket silos continue producing parts for the next rocket while the current rocket is being launched. Completing another rocket soon enough skips closing and reopening the doors. (Friday Facts #405)
Improved the way spidertrons are remotely controlled. Instead of spidertron remote being linked to single spidertron, it can be used to group select and command spidertrons like in your typical RTS game.
Spidertrons can be entered remotely, so you can control them as if you were inside physically, so switching the map on/off doesn't distrubt the mode.
Allowed opening and configuring entities through remote view. (Friday Facts #380)

Ease of use

Added green indicator (instead of yellow), when previewing underground belt/pipe on its maximal distance. (Friday Facts #388)

Assembling machines, chemical plants, oil refineries and centrifuges can now send the ingredient list of their recipes to the circuit network.
Drag building electric poles will also drag circuit wires when starting from electric pole with already connected circuit wires.
When electric pole is removed, it will rewire circuit wires similar to copper wires.
Cut/copy pasting blueprint with external circuit wire connections will preserve these connections when the blueprint is built (if possible). (Friday Facts #402)
Radar can now be connected to circuit network, allowing to wirelessly transmit a single channel of red and green signals on each planet/surface. (Friday Facts #402)
Added a way to read nuclear reactor temperature through the circuit network. (Friday Facts #428)

Electric poles are no longer limited to 5 copper connections to other electric poles.
Removed some of the abstract items (red wire, green wire, discharge defense, artillery remote, spidertron remote) and replaced them with shortcut bar tools which can be used anytime for free. (Friday Facts #379) These tools can still be placed into the quickbar if desired.
The smart pipette can also pick terrain and using it on fluid select the offshore pump.
The smart pipette can also pick items from crafting, logistic, select list, inventory and quickbar.
Disabling train stop no longer sends ongoing trains away. Disabled train stop is now considered full and trains will not skip schedule records.
Map tags can be moved. (Friday Facts #388)
Map tags can be quickly copied using pipette. (more)
Map tags and pings can be placed while zoomed in to game view.
Spidertrons can be damaged by cars and tanks, can be damaged by walking on fire, and can be slowed with slowdown capsules.
