Could you link it please? Id really love to check it out.

Would it be possible to do something like having websockets in Factorio?
I think it would be really cool to write a mod that connects to a service that has that and have it come back and do things in the game itself based on what the socket server says.
I have some ideas but i don't know if its ...

I don't believe its googles fault at all, its DynDNS thats getting attacked. Not googles fault.

Alrighty, So DynDNS is a company known for hosting a large chunk of DNS for a lot of companies. Well they are having a huge DDOS attack at the moment and people are having issues. Factorio uses Heroku for its servers and such and Heroku uses DynDNS. You can see where this is going..

Basically ...

Sorta like OpenTTD.

Lakes seem must-do, there's not enough variation.

Are you going to manufacture the rails? :shock:

Maybe, I might add the train mod that lets you control trains from afar and have a refill train that i send back between episodes or something. As to not bore everyone. But everything would be made ...

I think I might restart on my actual computer and do a YouTube series on it. You think people would watch that?

I'm also thinking I might set it to be a world with only water in the spawn, Just so I don't have to go around any lakes. Unless you would rather see me move the train around some lakes.

If any of you guys are familiar with kurtjmac you might know about his Far Lands or Bust series, I wanted to do something similar in Factorio. Except, Not recorded or anything. I don't even know if Factorio even technically has a far lands.. But I'm doing it anyway. If people are interested I could ...

Weird. Ill take a look at it.

Most crucial quaestions:
1. Location, location, location? Playing with pings > 100 is not fun :)
2. How much resources will the instances have? Do you plan to make tiers? "Regular", "Trains", "Megabase", "Colonel Will edition"? :D
3. Does it cost, and how much?
4. Ability to customize game setups ...

So a few months ago, Around September I had partnered with Klonan, One of the members here. We decided to get to work on hosting for Factorio multiplayer.
I can now officially announce that we will be open for joining in about a month or so.

If the staff have any Issues with it feel free to let me ...

None, if you play single player with updates turned off.

Multiplayer runs quite well on low bandwidth, though if you pay per megabyte it does add up.

The major bandwidth uses are the initial multiplayer map download, and new version updates.

I ment us playing multiplayer together. Mostly us ...

How much bandwidth does Factorio use when playing? Id like to know because someone i know only has a limited amount of bandwidth and i want to know how long he can play and if he should even attempt. I'm basically asking how much does it use on average per second?

Factorio Server List

So I was having personal issues and abandoned the project for a while. But I have vowed to finish this project this time. I am hoping to get a usable release in a few days. Ill update the post if so.

The reason the PHP version doesn't update the picture is because you don't have an expiration time set on the image. The browser is caching the image. If you press Shift+f5 it clears the cache and shows you the updated image.

So I have no idea if this is allowed or not but i found a site that is giving away factorio downloads for free. As far as i'm aware, Since it is a paid game isn't this site illegal?
If someone would like the link to it ill post it but otherwise i wont.
Edit: I just translated it from Russian and it ...

Does anyone know what happens when the factorio dedicated server in 0.12.x runs out of RAM? I myself haven't tested it and I don't have a big enough factory to get to my ram limit. anyone tested this?

i rent a server on (dunno if its allowed to mention them here?) Digitaloc*an ; ) around 10$/mo. Its quite simple to set the game up under linux if you are comfortable with things like wget to download and screen it in the background. :)

me and Klonan are starting up a host. I already have ...

So I did some googling and i couldn't find a server host for Factorio servers. Hosting as in company's that host Minecraft servers for example.
I was thinking.. I have some extra dedicated server boxes that I don't use for anything and I wanted to see what the community thought of starting a hosting ...

I have a very VERY early alpha out. Still too buggy to release at all.
