GPT-5.6 Sol can beat Factorio on peaceful mode

Automated excerpt

I got GPT-5.6 Sol, running in Codex with low thinking level, to complete a peaceful (i.e. no biters) Factorio run in 13.5 hours of game time: A timelapse of the full run is available on YouTube. Similar to my previous post, this run used a game manager to allow Sol/Codex to interact with the game via a small library (though in this run it was Python rather than Bash). Observing the run was fascinating: Sol exceeded my expectations in some areas while also showing clear weaknesses in others.
