[…] when you posted this (I think) 2.0.11 was the latest stable and next version after that was still considered 'experimental' - to get those, you need to 'enable experimental updates' in other settings, under settings

Re: Pingpong servers give conflicting addresses


Any one else has an idea how to resolve my issue?


Maybe you can configure a "reverse port mapping" for your Factorio server to force it on port 30001. First check if kubernetes is messing with the src port of your server and then map local_ip:30001 to public_ip:30001 for outbound requests in ...

Re: [2.0.7] Frequent FPS slowdowns during gameplay (Apple Silicon)

Hey there, we're aware of this thread, but so far we haven't found a good way to replicate these slowdowns on our Apple hardware. So it seems like there's no easy fix we can implement for now. The team is also focusing on crashes and bugs at the moment, performance improvements will come later.

Re: Can't Sign-in with Steam

This looks the steam servers are having trouble, so it should fix itself eventually.

You can use the in-game mods menu to download mods as well.

Re: [Vinzenz][Website][Safari 14] Galaxy of Fame not loading

Hey thanks for your report. This is fixed in newer Safari versions, so if you can you should just update your browser. I'm also working on a new Galaxy of Fame version that is more compatible with older browsers, but this'll take some time.

Re: [2.0.13] Computer shuts down when dropping to Gleba

This is a hardware issue with your PC, I'd start with the PSU, 500W seems a bit on the low end for your CPU and GPU. As Factorio with lower zoom level doesn't overload your system you can also try to reduce your graphics settings, e.g. lowering the sprite resolution to medium.

Re: Improving the Mod Portal Search



If you want exact matches you can add quotes around the search term https://mods.factorio.com/search?query=%22Schall%22

Things like these need to be documented somewhere. Right now the search is a mystery box, which makes it less usable than it could be.

Re: Improving the Mod Portal Search


Speaking of default. The 'Internals' results on the left side is disabled by default. This really bugs me.
Another issue, is that if I search for mods by a specific person, like 'Schall', I get results like 'shallow'. This should Never happen.

Re: Pingpong servers give conflicting addresses

There's no option to override the pingpong servers. Are you able to connect to this ip:port from outside your network? You can try to set up a public DNS SRV record https://wiki.factorio.com/Multiplayer#DNS_SRV_Records to make it easier to reach your server.

Re: [2.0.11] Game freezing after a minute of booting.

That's unfortunate, let's try one more thing: Does it freeze when you run the standalone version of the game https://factorio.com/download (ZIP package) without steam and discord running in the background? Please attach a new log if it freezes again.

Re: Pingpong servers give conflicting addresses

It is possible that they deploy carrier grade NAT to manage their limited IPv4 addresses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-grade_NAT

Re: [2.0.8] Slow multiplayer map downloading speed

Hey there, thanks for the report. How much does your download speed improve when you connect by ethernet cable? Unfortunately the Factorio networking protocol is very sensitive to latency. You can also try to experiment with the segment size in server-settings.json.

Re: Pingpong servers give conflicting addresses

This is mostly likely an issue with the NAT configured by your internet service provider, Factorio is only able to work around simpler NAT configs. More info: https://tailscale.com/blog/how-nat-traversal-works

I recommend you set up something like tailscale or ask your provider for a static ip.
