Extra info in response: Only the streamed display picture is blinking, not the hardware mouse cursor. It is the same if running the steam streaming window in fullscreen or windowed mode. You can test this reliably on any computer, you do not need steam link , just use the same steam login on 2 compu...

... Extra big hug to the person that finds a solution that does not involve using an old version! And achievements must also work! This is quite a high expectation for an experimental alpha release of a game, but perhaps someone else has a simple map seed to offer. Thank you for trying to help! *ti...

I mean seriously, I've been trying for over 2 hours just to get a simple a map with a decent sized starting area and all 4 elements without having to start fighting biters bare handed... It was about a year since I played a free mode map, and been waiting for the next minor version update ever since...

Background: I use Steams In-Home Streaming alot to play on my notebook, downstairs computer or through Steam Link on our TV. Bug description and how to recreate: Using In-Home Streaming on Factorio causes the the whole picture to blink on and off, about once per second. What I've tested: Setting --...

Simple question,

Can you get achievements if you play exclusively with non-game-changing mods from the mod portal?

---------------------------
Build long and prosper.

Nice

This mod portal thing doesn't seem to work very well for me, can't we do a sub section on curse or nexus instead?

Or is it just the 13.8 experimental that is broken? But, nah, that would not explain why I can't connect to mods.factorio.com either..

Anyone have any ideas?

Fixed that for you.

Haha, true. Old bugs gets fixed or disappear with replacement of new better code paths and new bugs emerge, to be even more precise.

I am a big fan of Factorio almost since the very beginning, and I spent countless hours in this game a long time ago. That said though, it has taken almost 1 whole year to fix bugs for alpha 0.12 (and we're maybe not done yet), it is a loooong long wait for between major updates especially so early ...

Most polished Early Access game ever released on Steam.

I realized something about the Steam page.. All of the screenshots are of really complex situations so none of them seem to be easily accessible or understandable for the average player not having played this before. (It could seem like you need to know complex electronics to bother buying the game,...

Strange reality-check-warning stuff last friday facts, some of it not even close to true, and way too political. I even bet Factorio didn't apply for the development grant like the other 31 companies from all around Europe did.

Let's hope for less of that in this weeks Friday Facts.

Just bought the scenario pack and was looking forward to trying it. In Start new campaign I get 2 new scenarios now, "belt madness" & "tight spot". When trying to start "belt madness" I get this: beltmadness.jpg And when trying to start tight spot I get to choose No...

Thank you!

Is it only me or is all the updates in the news section and all the news in the update section? =)

I am really looking forward to some new content in the near future when the office move is done. Not having anything new (it is how it seems anyway for a singleplayer guy like me) except for some changed graphics since january when oil was introduced. The 8 months long bugfixing run needs to meet an...

That looked so funny so I just had to add one too =)

Very nice that you got it solved! I felt really stupid there for a while when it all seemed so random =)

However, I don't see any competitive aspect of achievements, they are just empty badges or icons and whatnot to me. Like killing the same boss in WoW for the 50th time to get a "You killed a boss for the 50th time" achievement. It can hold a small sense of having some statistics, and stat...
