One thing tho that makes me kinda wonder if the game is indeed only using the small cores, how come it loads so much slower on my M1 Macbook than on my Steam Deck or Linux laptop (with same ingame settings). Especially the 'Loading sprites' part, I would kinda expect the M1 to load faster because it...

Mine updated fine by itself.

I had the same problem, you gotta go to the steam deck settings, select the proper native resolution for the external display. Then in the Factorio settings (not in game but like the game's properties) you need to set resolution to Native. If I remember all of this correctly. Try it, and let me know...

Was waiting for this for a while, kinda knew it was coming. So about 30% performance increase, nice but to be very honest I expected more. Since the game is extremely CPU dependent, especially with bigger maps, running the game through Rosetta 2 x86 emulator I would expect to have a rather extreme p...

Have you guys never played Marathon or something?

A mining drills output works like a inserter, it can put things into other entities like belts or furnaces, or ev...

Maybe something just got bugged that fixed itself by restarting the game. Well I am glad it now works...

Hello, was playing a game today and kinda found a cheese strategy. Had some biter bases nearby my starting area, I laid a pipeline around em. They started creating a attack group due to the pollution cloud, the attack never came tho. Now the base simply stopped absorbing pollution. Guess they can't ...
