Ref.: 125212

See 128176, steam only seems to check if the folder it would sync is reaching the limit, not if the cloud storage is actually full.

This is not caused by a mod, it is either a factorio bug or most likely a hardware problem. Since you are using a 13th Gen Intel cpu you should make absolutely sure you are on the latest bios before it gets permanently damaged.

Post a simple save showing your issue.

Post a log with a crash please.

There is no voice chat in game.

Steam crashing should create a factorio log entry but it just ends which suggests the OS killing it which should create an error event.

Some corruptions can be fixed, but it might take a while for someone to have time to look into it.

There is nothing about the crash in the log file. I would expect that there is an event for the program closing though.

Post the log of a session with the issue, see 52433. Can you join other servers successfully?

The save is corrupted, if you find a way to reliably corrupt new save files on the latest version of the game provide exact steps please. Make sure your bios is up to date for the raptor lake defect.

Post a save, add the version to the title and post the log file please, see 3638. You can mask the parts in the log you don't want to share.

Post a simple save and steps to reproduce and add the version to the title please, see 3638.

I believe it is a result of 113780 which creates topics that are approved but also notifications for not yet approved that persist until the time out after a month.
So the question mark indicator discrepancy I have seen for years now.

There are no storage chests.

It can stay in Technical help for now. If you find a way to reliably corrupt new saves let us know, but so far this is just one save file with that corruption.

Describe the issue, add the version to the title and post a save showing the issue please, see 3638.
