Trying to play on garuda linux, at first the game would immediately freeze on startup. I eventually managed to get all the graphics settings set to minimum, and the game was able to load my save... but would freeze every so often for ~5s, until eventually it would just lock up entirely, sometimes ...

Good idea!

And then sometimes it runs for 10 minutes, then crashes for no obvious reason. Log from this run:

I've a modded game I've been playing across 3 computers - windows desktop, windows laptop, and a steam deck. On the laptop and the steamdeck, everything's been running perfectly well (well, some fps issues, but totally playable).

On the desktop, the game just crashes a couple of minutes after ...

The closest station that's routable? Or just all the trains will always try to go to the same station and queue up there?

I'm thinking of setting up all my resource outposts with a shared station name. I have a generic unload station, and would like to be able to just copy/paste the same train schedule to all trains.

The question is, how will trains select which station to go to?

Some ideas I was thinking of that ...

Would construction bots use repair packs from storage chests too? That would be ideal.

My experimentation doesn't seem to show that they would?

Is there a way to know how many repair packs a roboport has, or to limit how many it would take?

I'm buiding outpost logistic networks, and have a train deliver them supplies. I can use circuit networks to limit how many bots each outpost has, but I haven't found a way to not have to fill the ...

Does the tutorial talk about biters in each level? I haven't replayed them in the recent versions -- all I know is that it took long enough that the pistol wasn't enough to fend them off anymore, and there wasn't a mention that one should perhaps build turrets or a machine gun or even more ammo ...

I've a friend who wanted to try Factorio, but got very frustrated by biters swarming them too often. I suggested a workaround, setting peaceful mode.

They did that (twice, to get past the achievement warning), and happily continued the tutorial.

Until the biters attacked again.

I don't know if ...

Repro again - this time I just reloaded the map, and tried to place the same rail I tried before. No tabbing in or out.

Possible the mouse wheel is unrelated - still not working after reboot, it just seems... perfectly timed.

Single player, wasn't doing anything interesting, but tabbed out of the game. Tabbed back in, a few seconds, game crashes.

Not sure if it's related, but my mouse's scroll wheel seems to have stopped working in all apps after the crash.

(my first crash report, let me know if there ...
