Re: Roboports output construction requests


Roboports should have a circuit option to output the missing construction materials.


With the SA changes I've been using circuit conditions a lot more and this has become a glaring omission. I'm not sure if there used to be more reason not to have this feature, but the alarm is pretty well ...

Re: [2.0.10][Linux] Factorio Using Incorrect Graphics Card (?)

I'm not sure, I lost the log-in for whatever account I bought the base game on a long time ago. There is a way to run the game from the terminal, and when you do that you can set the env variable.

I don't remember exactly how to do that or where I saw the instructions so I don't know if it works ...

Re: [2.0.10][Linux] Factorio Using Incorrect Graphics Card (?)

Try setting "DRI_PRIME=1" or "DRI_PRIME=0" in the launch options (specifically put "DRI_PRIME=0 %command%" in Steam launch options). Normally the former is what solves this issue for applications, but for some reason I needed to do the latter and tell the game to run with the system default ...

Re: [2.0.8 Linux x64] not using dedicated GPU - ubuntu 24.04


Added 'DRI_PRIME=0 in the launch options.' -- no go.


Did you try "DRI_PRIME=1" ? That's the standard solution I saw for this problem. I don't know why my case required me to set it to 0, since DRI_PRIME=0 should be the default.

I'm on an AMD card and you're on an NVIDIA card(?), which might be ...

Re: Linux Mint 22 Wilma, Cinnamon edition: Poor performance at startup, slow Loading Sprites, etc.

I had the same problem after the Space Age update (which I did not have in the base game beforehand). The game was not using my GPU. I fixed it by setting "DRI_PRIME=0" In the Steam launch options.

Normally people say they need to set "DRI_PRIME=1" so I'm not sure why for my particular case I ...

Re: [2.0.8 Linux x64] not using dedicated GPU - ubuntu 24.04

I'm also having this issue... but my CPU and GPU are both AMD.

After further testing it's pretty clear that Factorio is for some reason ignoring the dedicated GPU. Setting DRI_PRIME=1 (either when running from terminal or within Steam launch options), disabling secure boot, selecting "run with ...
