Random crashes sound like an issue with your PC, e.g. failing memory, faulty PSU. I recommend starting with memtest https://www.memtest86.com/

That's great to hear! You can report these issue to Valve here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-runtime/issues

We'll look into disabling this runtime by default.

You can delete a planet with the /editor command and deleting the surface

For this save the peaceful/no enemies map gen settings were not used. It looks like you used a command like https://wiki.factorio.com/Console#Preve ... ted_chunks instead which is kinda outside of regular user support. I fixed your save regardless...

Yes you can use Space Age assets when you enable a Space Age feature flag for your mod.

Feel free to attach your save file so I can check the settings. There are probably nests on Nauvis if you explore a bit further.

Another problem could be your system memory, which you can check with this tool https://www.memtest86.com/download.htm

How healthy is your PCs storage? Can you please check with e.g. https://diskovery.io/ e.g. if there are any read errors? Are you able to launch Factorio from a stand-alone install by downlading it from our website?

This is most likely an issue with your graphics driver or how your OS implements the suspend feature. I recommend updating to a newer PopOS release.

Which mode did you choose when starting the game? Even when disabling enemies biter nests should still spawn.

You can add one of these feature flags to your mods info.json


"quality_required": true,
"space_travel_required": true,
"spoiling_required": true,
"freezing_required": true,
"segmented_units_required": true,
"expansion_shaders_required": true

Can you please attach your save file to this thread? Are the required items already in the space platform hub?

Additionally are you able to view these failing sprite files in the Windows image viewer? Should be at these locations for you:
- C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Factorio/data/elevated-rails/graphics/entity/artillery-wagon/artillery-wagon-sloped-base-2.png
- C:/Program Files (x86 ...

I cannot log in on https://factorio.com/login at all. When I enter my name + password and click login, it just shows the login prompt again, no error message. I tried to log in via Steam instead; after clicking "Sign in" on the Steam page, I'm redirected to https://factorio.com/ (as if the log in ...

You're not allowed to distribute Space Age assets to non-expansion Factorio.

This looks like your Factorio installation directory contains corrupt/invalid files like the vanilla factorio binary instead of the expansion binary. Please download a clean copy of the expansion from our website.

Please write to support@factorio.com including your log file and factorio.com account name.

The new steam client also added a new linux runtime. You can try to disable it by launching steam with a flag. https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/593110?emclan=103582791457287600&emgid=4472730495692571024

Note that this new feature can be turned off globally with "-compat-force-slr off" on ...

These crashes are so early in factorio start process, it's not even able to write a log file. So it's very likely that something is wrong with your system. You can try to disable the steam overlay, verify game files and ensure you're not using the windows compatibility mode.

Factorio sends http keepalive requests to the multiplayer service so its entry stays in the server list. It has no direct control over the DNS requests your server sends. I assume you need to check your servers name resolution setup and ensure it does some caching.
