Factorio Update 2.0.24 Patch Notes:
Minor Features
- Added radar minimap visualization for roboports and cargo landing pads. (117994)
- Added camera views to Space platform tooltips.
- Added "Nauvis Bus" and "Nauvis Power Up" menu simulations.
Graphics
- Changed the Rocket part icon to look more like a part of the rocket.
