A change that is not mentioned in the changelog is that Linux builds are now built with Clang instead of GCC, which has allowed us to re-enable link-time optimization on Linux builds. Linux players should see some performance improvements due to this.


The game is already working fantastic on ...

This was the first fix that actually worked for me, but all I need is the path:
I think we should get this added to the nixpkgs steam wrapper.

Oh hey, I should mention that I also use NixOS just like the OP here.

Performed a system update from https://releases.nixos.org/nixos/unstable/nixos-24.11pre690827.5633bcff0c61/nixexprs.tar.xz to https://releases.nixos.org/nixos/unstable/nixos-24.11pre705705.76612b17c0ce/nixexprs.tar.xz and a ...

After today's updates to the Steam Linux Runtime, the mouse cursor is now extremely tiny.

Since I'm not sure which one Factorio uses, here's all the versions:
Steam Linux Runtime 1.0 (scout) appid: 1070560 buildid: 15348173

Also now that I think about it, the "Electric" ammo category should actually be a "Damage category", and Flamethrower would be a combined "Ammo/Damage Category" page. Artillery Shell (Ammo Category) would link to both Physical (Damage category) and Explosion (Damage category).

The "Ammo category" pages in the Factoriopedia are pretty barebones and need some love.

- Remove most items from the "Related" category
- Add a new "Used by" category: guns, vehicles with guns on them, turrets
- Add a new "Ammunition" category: the various types of ammo that match the category ...

It's weird that clearing the "Import From" filter doesn't save it as a cleared filter (import anywhere).

Just speed module your recycler to reduce quality

@Pirate_Rance: The save format for terrain tiles is necessarily highly compressed, and currently there's no space to store qualities. It likely won't change until the save format is next overhauled.

For "why would you do this":

Deconstruction planners can't be filtered with the Vulcanus sulfur-bearing rocks:

When holding a radar to place it, the blue "radar coverage" overlay on the minimap does not display the coverage of the Cargo landing pad.

Screenshot: The minimap displaying proposed radar coverage in blue, adjacent to what are clearly always-charted chunks not highlighted in blue.

Relaunching the game from the modding dialog after making no changes also worked. I think this can be closed as Not Reproducible

Closing the game and launching again from Steam worked.

There's probably something about the reexec under NixOS Steam that broke?

On my first successful launch of 2.0.7, I got the disable mods prompt, followed by an Application Not Responding:

Can confirm that this crash still happens when launching 2.0 under Proton.

A move that has not resolved yet is known as an "outstanding move". The Factorio client tracks these using the "latency state".

Factorio now implements the Axiom of Choice! Horray!

Nah, the spidertron speed buff I want to see is "Spidertron can now climb on and attach itself to a train wagon"
