Re: [2.0.20] Error on update attempt

Our updater needs the original unchanged file to apply the update. In case of changes, filesystem errors you need to download a fresh copy of Factorio https://factorio.com/download

Re: [2.0.21] Game does not start after update


Same thing started happening to me after the 2.0.21 update. I'm running it through Steam on Archlinux, with an all-AMD system. Steam shows the game as Running, and I can see the Factorio process has started, but the game window never actually opens.

Given the different OS and hardware I think it ...

Re: Feels like certain changes were made to the game 'just because'

New players are literally the reason Factorio is still around, they keep this whole project funded. Of course this dynamic changed a bit with Space Age which is more for veteran players, but there are no new veterans ...

Re: Spage Age "Failed to establish a connection to the server" constantly

Hey there, please post your Factorio log file with the connection error messages and some details about your multiplayer setup. Are you using a dedicated server, steam multiplayer?

Re: Login Issues (mainly the mod portal)

If you login using a password you can use the "Remember me" checkbox, otherwise your login cookie gets thrown away when your browser deletes session cookies. I can look into making the checkbox work with the steam login as well.

Re: [2.0.21] Game does not start after update

Are you able to run Factorio 1.1? Download is on our website. There's also the `--start-server-load-latest ` flag to start the game as a server in headless mode to see if it's related to graphics. You can also try the `--force-opengl` and `--force-d3d` flags. https://wiki.factorio.com/Command_line ...

Re: Startup of Space Age causing CPU to spike to 100C

Hey there, thanks for the report. Factorio tries to use as many cores as possible to improve the loading times at startup. If your PCs thermal design is not able to keep up with this, I’d recommend you invest in some better cooling. There‘s also a setting in config.ini to reduce the number of ...

Re: Galaxy of fame UI not avalable.

Hey there, can you please post your Factorio log file? I think the UI doesn't show when you're not logged in, maybe that's the reason it's not showing. Are you logged in when checking the Other category in Settings?

Re: Cant play factorio multiplayer after steam update

If the server is following the newer Factorio experimental releases instead of stable you could also opt in to the "experimental" beta branch on steam. If you need to download a specific older version of Factorio we have the archive on our website: https://factorio.com/download/archive/

Please attach the factorio log file to your post. Most likely the server hasn't updated to the same version yet.

I see a recent upload for your username at https://factorio.com/galaxy/Sulfur%20IV:%20Iota2-1.G7Y4 already. So this is again just the client side timeout being to low / upload server not keeping the connection active enough.
