1.210.014: stations with subgrids became offset

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

Hotfix 1.210.014 stops stations with subgrids moving farther out of position when attached or after a world reload. Previously affected bases are not automatically restored. Keen specifies a version-209 backup or single-player Scenario Edit repositioning for the remaining displacement. [1]

Documented steps

  1. For the documented Scenario Edit route, turn off damage in Alt+F10 → Global permissions before moving a base. The developer identifies 2xF11 and translation controls for single-player repositioning. [1]

1.210.014: Wheel Propulsion Override changed existing constructs

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

Keen reverted the Wheel Propulsion Override change after feedback that it affected existing mech builds. The hotfix restores the earlier consistent behavior for constructs with or without a control block while the developer works on a replacement solution. [1]

Resolved

1.210.014: Flat Collector side conveyors failed

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The same hotfix fixes Flat Collector side conveyors not working because of incorrect dummy names. This is a component-specific conveyor correction, not evidence that every blocked inventory transfer has the same cause. [1]

Resolved

Prosperity update: closing the Services Terminal could crash

Platforms: PCUpdated Evidence checked

The Prosperity changelog fixes a crash and memory leak when closing the Services Terminal. It separately records an issue where a terminal on a subgrid could store itself together with its main grid. Both are recorded fixes, without a claim that a terminal can ignore the storage eligibility rules. [2]
