Hmm, how about making the solar panel tech have Electric Energy Distribution 1 as a pre-requisite instead of Advanced Electronics?

It wouldn't change the costs too much ( 50 / 30 seconds of Science Pack 1 & 2 vs 40 / 15 seconds Science Pack 1 & 2), you still have to research Electronics, and EED 1 ...

I think Advanced Electronics should probably require plastics. since this science is also required for modules, as well as the circuit being required to make everything in your list (Either directly, or via modules) then this should solve the problem.

Modules does require advanced electronics ...

Hello, After I saw this bug get reported and fixed, it got me thinking.

When it goes past the halfway point, there's a slight jerk as the entire machine ...

Every building has "Unit number: " and "Force: " fields in the latest version which weren't in previous versions to my understanding.

Can confirm, disabling tips and tricks from settings makes the game run proper. Thanks for the fix and the workaround

We have just started new MP game.
Everything is fine.

No mods installed, no options changed, this is after unpacking into a new folder and trying to start a new game.

I got the zipped version of Factorio, unpacked it and tried to start playing when it crashed. Campaign seems to be working fine, custom scenarios also crash.

Map editor works, but I can't load into any of the maps created without crashing.

Repro steps:
Main menu -> Play -> New game -> Default ...
