Thanks - I tried cache-prototype-data=true on 2.1.17. With my 133-mod set Factorio logs "Data stage cache not used." on every single launch and then rewrites the 115 MB cache file again. Three planets through tool: 177s without the cache, 184s with it, so it is marginally slower rather than faster ...

What did you do?
Ran the command line map preview generator with a planet name that does not exist.
Vanilla, no mods (base, elevated-rails, quality, recycler, space-age), empty
--mod-directory:


factorio --generate-map-preview=out.png --map-gen-settings=map-gen-settings.json ^
--map-preview ...

TL;DR
Let --map-preview-planet accept a list of planets (or be repeatable), so one Factorio
launch can render previews for several planets - the way --map-gen-seed-max already
renders several seeds in one launch.

What?
Today --map-preview-planet takes exactly one planet, so generating previews ...

well seems after a reboot it worked again... wierd

Hey, when i start the game it crashes, i have run check on steam, and says all files are ok, but it still crashes.

I have been testing ram all day, and found out one of my 4 bank is bad... going to return it as a warrenty on monday Thanx i have had no crashes today, don't know if the other crash has been related to the ram problem....

ok i will run a check om my memory and se if i have a problem with that...

Crashed again

Sorry i have not saved them, but i will post when it crashes again.... normaly does 1-2 times if i play a few hours...

i'm running a modded SE game, but i keep seing crashes on save, so now i think i will add a report so you can have a look if this is in the mod or can be fixed
i can't say how to reproduce it, as it seems to happen random, but always on autosave ..
Do ask, if there is any more info needed
factorio ...

About train limits, it should skip the stop if limit is changed while in route, if there are other stops where it can fit if there is limit in them.

that way you can do a depot where you can have more trains waiting, if no ore is ready/needed

hey,
how can i enable the research queue in the map-generator json file ?

yes it does... i have 2x20 stops depots alone

i installed 1.9.8 and got 4 desyncs wery fast... after going back to 1.9.7 there is no problems again

i must have searched bad, cause i didn't find the other post in there that gives the same idea... but i see i'm not alone about my suggestion then

you should really look into how openttd solves this issue with mods and versions for joining a multiplayer game

In multiplayer, it can sometimes be hard to find back to the servers you played last time, so a recent played servers area in the list or column to filter by would be a great addition to the game and make ppl go back to the servers where you already where a part of before.
