Since this version, the keyboard shortcut to move items from inventory to trash slots is not working. Both ctrl+click and shift+click are not working.

I'm still seeing the lag. Even on the main menu where simulation is shown. I'm on macOS Big Sur 11.4.

Is there anything I can provide to help with the investigation? Or is there some workaround that I can use to make the game playable?

Was there any conclusion on this issue? I came back to Factorio for a rerun and it's unplayable right now on macOS Big Sur.

I'm getting this error while trying to load my save from 0.18.42

I really like the new design. But somehow it bothers me that the ores suddenly appear on the transport belt now. Before, they came out of motion and onto the transport belt. At least that's what it looked like.


Ore output had no connection to mining animation on the old miner as well. If they ...

Basically: https://i.imgur.com/Pef9iV3g.jpg but replace "candles" with "the inefficient ways to play the game"

"inefficient" is such a weird way to spell fun.

Posting my 1k SPM base which runs at ~26 UPS. It's relatively huge because of the restrictions I'm playing with.

Can you add one more condition to this check? Show a confirmation in case the map seed /exchange string is different too. I ...

Is there a way to drill down on entity updates? For my current base the entity updates is taking the most of the time and I'd like to see which entities are actually contributing the most.

Did you unplug the second monitor as well or are you still running two monitors from the video card?

I'm only running one monitor. The laptop screen is either turned off or the lid is down.

Excuse me for chiming in here.

Just for the sake of attempting to resolve this issue let us experiment with disabling the integrated graphics and then retry loading the game and see how the performance changes. By disabling the integrated graphics this will force the system to use the Nvidia 1650 ...

I am not computer specialist and don't know how to diagnose general PC performance issue, I am sorry.
Just to make sure it's not just Factorio can you try to download Cinebench R20 , run it on both Macbook and the Windows laptop, and compare scores?

EDIT: Also, can you please install HWMonitor ...

Is there anything I can do to get consistent 60 FPS/UPS? The CPU and GPU are better in the Windows laptop, but my MBP is able to get better performance. I know I can't compare Windows with Mac straight-up, but I assumed the Windows version of Factorio would be more optimized than the Mac version ...

Adding --force-d3d to launch options on Steam helped a lot. Now FPS stays consistent with UPS, which hovers anywhere from 47 to 54 depending on what's on the screen. Still not on par with Mac though, which stays at 60 consistently.

Attaching the log file after enabling the launch options.

According to screenshots with timings everything is much slower on the Windows machine not just rendering, and there are some extreme spikes. Which is weird given the HW is possibly better than the one in the MacBook. I'd suspect new Cortana update eating lot of CPU power causing the machine to ...

I feel you're excluding the fact your CPU is not the limiting factor. I thik it is. It might be because your GPU doesn't do all what could be expected from it though.


That makes sense. Another thing I noticed is when I play the game on Mac, Factorio detects the monitor as 1920x1080. However, on ...

You are using OpenGL renderer, I assume you got "Factorio crashed due to video card reset or removal." error and switched to OpenGL because of that?

I didn't observe any crashes. I've been playing normally directly on the laptop. Performance drop is seen when connected to the 4K monitor.

Do you have the issue also on a new singleplayer map?

For OpenGL there are not many options that you could try - basically just try to turn off "Wait for V-sync" in graphics options (you might need to restart the ...
