Maybe you closed the game when it was saving or you have non-blocking saving enabled (never tested if it works on Windows, though) and exited to main menu while it was saving in background? I remember seen report on this issue and once stumble upon it myself, but that's just an assumption.

the consumption is never at what the tooltip says. its always either at 9.6 MW or 24 kW. even if its it filling up the buffer, thats the whole way it shoots. it shoots by filling up the buffer then firing. if we don't consider filling the buffer as consumption, then its real max consumption would b...

I think just being able to launch rockets with a signal would be much simpler and more usefull sollution. We can depart trains with that, why not rockets? Honestly, the current "autoload with bots" design looks like just a workaround to please people who are so afraid of doing anything wit...

I think LTN is just wrong thing to do with how trains designed in game. They are very good at being one thing they have been in 1.1: a chest on rails that travels from point A to point B. With more updates it just becomes more easy to multiplex that one "chest" to go (or not to go) multipl...

You can connect assemblers as well and enable "read contents". It then will send everything inserted inside assembler, including ingredients that are already "consumed" to fill the green bar. With belt, inserters on hold and assemblers connected together you will have all the inf...

I think just counted sushi either with "hold all" on the belt or with counting from inserters would be much easier and simpler design. You're wasting so much space for a thing that either way must route everything back with priority, and stop adding more if not consumed. Maybe if you could...

Could it be autosave, which saves in the background? Setting non-blocking-save? 99.(9)% not, because that would drop your UPS, not the frame rate. And i've never had an issue with it even on a much less powerfull hardware with on-CPU GPU. But i've never tested anything wayland. (speculation) Althou...

Would X11 vs. Wayland have any baring on this issue? I've heard Wayland servers trottle rendering for windows that not in scope (at least what they think is not in scope) by default. You can try running from pure X11 server (you don't need to install a DE for that, just Xorg, sx for running it and ...

Looking at your frame time, I can see that when your FPS drops, the most time is taken by "Flip (on)" entry. There was a setting to play with in a hidden menu (in main menu, open "Settings" while holding Ctrl+Alt, and you'll see new option "The Rest" appear). Search for...

Why not just override the default behavior on your side, like everyone do? You can always check the validity of the file you download by comparing its checksum with one of those https://factorio.com/download/sha256sums/.

Looks more like a Steam issue than a Factorio. Their scripts are notoriously buggy and quite dangerous (https://github.com/valvesoftware/steam- ... ssues/3671), so I suggest everyone to run Steam from another user so it would not be able to delete your root or something.
