Umm... isn't this already a thing?
At the bottom of the multiplayer settings we have 'verify user identity'. If it's there in the GUI version, I'll be very surprised if it's missing from the headless server.

Came back from work. Just downloaded version 0.17.2. Am extracting the tar file. Will write my notes/comments here as I play.

-sigh- I tweaked the settings a bit more. Thought I found a good balance that I liked. Joined a multiplayer game. Zoomed around, looked at a few biters and the game crashed. Here is the log file; 0.000 2019-02-27 07:17:13; Factorio 0.17.1 (build 43001, linux64, alpha) 0.128 Operating system: Linux (...

So, some good news. I deleted my factorio game folder and re-extracted from the tar file. First thing I did was to disable full-screen. Then I changed, Video memory usage = Medium Texture compression = High quality Max render threads = 4 Interface UI scale = 125% After that, I quit the game and set ...

Thank you for the suggestion @ChiBeaGReenie. I updated my config.ini to this, ; Options: true, false gpu-accelerated-compression=false ; Options: true, false gpu-accelerated-mipmap-compression=false And attempted to load my save game. It crashed. :( Here are the logs, 0.000 2019-02-27 06:38:31; Fact...

Attempting to load up the multiplayer save game, crashed. (Note: am no longer playing multiplayer - I joined that map, saved it locally and am attempting to load it) The menu at least comes up. Going to switch texture compression to high. Annd I can't do that. Game crashed in the menu. Attempting to...

I'm encountering crashes at seemingly random points when navigating the menus or just attempting to play. So, making this thread to document what I'm doing. Am running on a Lenovo y510p laptop with Ubuntu 18.04.02 LTS; Memory : 8 GB Processor: Intel® Core™ i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2.40GHz × 8 Graphics: Intel...

Whoops. Thanks for fixing the post @Koub.

Here is how the current scenario page looks like, https://i.imgur.com/M1P7ws0.png And I have no idea what the custom scenarios mean. Especially the two ComfyFactorio ones. Right now, the only way to see what they are about is to log in and see the opening message, https://i.imgur.com/rVVpw4v.png or ...
