Patchnotes via Steam Community

There were many features that have been requested and added over the last few months, but are not mentioned in the tutorial. You may have found some already, but here is a list.

Rules list

Up and Down arrow keys select rules.
Hovering over the Regions column now shows a preview of the rule.
Holding Shift or Ctrl when selecting will range or toggle select.
You can drag selected rules to change their order. Holding shift to drag multiple rules.
As well as Level and Global usage counts there are new CPU statistics. The CPU time is measured in milliseconds (ms).
Tags are available to help you categorise your rules.
Copying a rule to an clipboard image can be imported into the game by a player you send it to.
New button to reset statistics for a selected rule. You can select multiple or all rules using Shift select and reset stats on them all.
Rules can now be Undeleted, in case you accidentally clicked Delete.
Visibility rules now count activations (although this may be inexact).

Rule Construction

Visibility rules now warn you that information will be lost and show an example that would not be knowable if you hide/trash the region.
You can double click in the number pad to create a new region of that type.
Ctrl-Click allows you to eye-drop style select region type from the play board or from a region (in fact any number) in the constructor.
Rules now warn you that a rule is redundant, i.e. it creates a region which is already an input region.
Rules now warn you that a rule is impossible, i.e. it would never fire.
Better duplicate rule detection.

Paint

Holding Ctrl allows you to access a second set of 8 colours.
Right clicking a colour or eraser sets the right mouse tool. By default it is erase.

Filter

Filter button allows you to restrict shown regions to ones which have elements in the selected cells. Select Filter and click cells on the board.
The new "NOT" mode allows you to hide regions that are in specific cells. Not cells are blue and are selected using right click.

Robots

Robots are now much faster (thank you Adrian)
Levels record what the maximum region count was when robots were run.
When adjusting Auto-Solve Maximum Regions, robots are now more smart about whether they should try a level again.
Clear button on Levels screen to mark set of levels as not completed.

Other

Total scores now shown in game mode select.
Right clicking hint "undoes" the hint allowing you to click hint again and possibly get a better minimal region set.
Keys are re-mappable
Support for Steam deck key binding icons
Several new languages
Better number rendering and alignment (spaces between 1000s)
