Unfortunately, I've since passed my mac onto someone else in favour of a laptop, so I'm not able to test this myself. If you're not able to reproduce it, I'd say it's probably fixed. Thanks for following up on this bug report!

I've since figured out how to save the game (by pausing with the Pause button before pressing Escape to save and close the game), so I've uploaded a replay of the bug in action.

It looks like this is a problem when I start driving a tank and then go to the space platform. It seems that it's possible to save by pressing the Pause/Break button, then pressing Esc to bring up the menu.

When my character is on a platform, I can't bring up the pause menu because "esc" brings me to different map locations.

Steps to reproduce:
Launch the player onto a platform
Try to open up the menu to save and quit by pressing [esc]
Notice that either nothing happens or you see a new location in ...

After a blueprinted tank with a planned equipment grid is built by a robot, more robots are sent to fill the equipment grid. However, even after the equipment grid is full, more bots are still sent to put things into the equipment grid. The tank blueprint was created and placed in a previous version ...

The stable API documentation homepage claims that it is documenting 2.0.7 despite the latest stable version being 2.0.11. I'd like to request that this be fixed.

The description of the "Keeping your hands clean" achievement reads "Destroy your first enemy structure using artillery". This is confusing because I originally took the usage of "first" as similar to (for example) a hypothetical achievement reading "Research your first technology" - that is to say ...

...just like cut-paste does.

Currently, cut-paste preserves wires to outside the selected entities. This is especially useful for moving combinators around. It also marks the selected entities for deconstruction. On the other hand, copy-paste does not preserve wires to outside the selected entities ...

I was modding the game and screwed up, but it had an unusual crash that the game instructed me to report, so I'm reporting.

I have an assembling-machine that has a fixed_recipe, and the recipe has an output that's a fluid. However, the assembling-machine does not have a fluidbox.

What did I expect ...

...Or some other way to deactivate them by scrip.

LuaEntity has a field active , which controls whether an entity is active. Transport belts have a deactivated state (where the belt is disabled by circuit network) already. This interface request is to make deactivating a belt through the "active ...

Part of testing mods is testing if achievements work. However, particularly difficult achievements are difficult to test, as in-game achievements are disabled by when using lua commands, editor mode, or scenarios. For example, if a Pyanodon's developer wishes to test the "Win the game" achievement ...

What mods are related to the modding and scripting fixes? Need smart people to explain to me dumb brain what capabilities are avail now


The show_fluid_icon is almost definitely pushed by Earendel to benefit Space Exploration, to let the fluid tank for the cargo rocket silo show arrows in alt ...

I'm getting a multiplayer bug.

Cannot join. The following mod event handlers are not identical between you and the server. This indicates that the following mods are not multiplayer (save/load) safe. (See log file for more details)

Ah, I see. I can confirm that I had OBS open at the time, hooked into Factorio. Thank you for your time

I've attached a sample save file with the same mod list and map settings, for convenience in syncing mods - sorry for not doing this earlier.

I was alt-tabbed out at the time, so I'm not sure what was happening. It might be because I alt-tabbed out and my computer switched Factorio from the dedicated to integrated graphics cad. It might be because I have Factorio's main directory set to an external drive.

What I was doing:

I opened ...

In the main menu, when the green button reads Continue: Host savefile, clicking the green button does not sync mods with the save. This is inconsistent with the behavior when the green button reads Continue savefile, which does create a prompt to sync mods.

I hosted a multiplayer game of Factorio. While in the tech screen, I hovered over a technology, which showed the information card as demonstrated below:

While I was in the tech screen, an achievement unlocked. When this happened, the information card and unlocked ...

I was launching Factorio. The Factorio logo did not appear; instead it was a white screen. Then the screen yellowed a bit. Then the game crashed.

In a Steam multiplayer game, I was running westwards between two assembly machines. My friend was building and removing belts. I was hosting the world when Factorio crashed. I've attached the latest save before the crash , as well as the log and dump.

Apparently it didn't upload the attachments ...
