We're introducing a new speedrun category: "All Peaceful Achievements". For now, this category will be added to the category extensions, with the possibility of moving it to the main leaderboards if community interest grows.

Background:

Recently, a Factorio update (2.0.45) now disables some achievements if some map settings (like pollution spread, enemy expansion, tree density, and starting area) are modified. This significantly impacted the traditional 100%/All Achievements category, causing it to become significantly harder and less approachable due to enforced settings.

In response, the 100% runner community discussed solutions. A widely supported proposal emerged: creating a new category called "All Peaceful Achievements", completing all achievements except those disabled by map settings. This resembles the original spirit and strategy of the old 100% runs.

1.1 100% runs remain unaffected. Pre-2.0.45 submissions from the 100% category have been moved to the new "All Peaceful Achievements" category.
