Re: 0.15 startup bug

I have the exact same issue, posted it here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=44609&p=257773#p257773

What's your hardware look like? Are you launching it through steam?

[0.15] Refuses to launch - error at 98%

Factorio crashes while loading sprites, at 98%, with the error message:

"Value must be a directory in property tree at ROOT.other"

This has happened every time I've launched the game (4 or 5 times now).

I use the Steam version, and since this is a file issue, I feel I should mention that Factorio ...

Logistic storage item counts incorrect

So, I've been playing around in my SP world, and I've noticed something odd. Every item in flight counts against the total number of that item. Not in that it doesn't count towards it, but it counts against it too.

For instance, I have 500 Iron plates. 10 get picked up to be carried off. My ...

Re: What does your mega-base actually produce?

My megabase just fills up my supply banks. It doesn't produce anything except barren wasteland cleared of everything. I'm only a hundred hours in, but what a productive hundred hours it's been. I'm currently working on an expansion that pushes the base longer than max map zoom. Should be fun to ...

Re: Iron/Steel/Wood Walls?

I'd be interested in this, certainly. I've noticed that walls aren't really strong enough to cut it at end game, and it's annoying to have to layer them 3 deep and provide a steady stream or replacements for large, combat-prone walls. Stone was good for the first 2/3 of the game, but once the ...

Re: Performance optimization - post your saves

I also see an enormous graphical slowdown when doing non-map view of trains and zooming out. Even with only 5 trains, I notice a far larger performance hit than I would expect, even given that it's rendering double the stuff. I go from unflinching 59 (v-sync leaves me at 59 and not 60 for reasons ...

Re: switch from .14 to .15 - savegame compatibility



After testing we decided to migrate the pump afterall, because it made fixing all the broken setups much harder without any indication of where the pumps use to be, and what their circuit conditions were

However the pumps will not function, and they will not pump any liquid in this broken state ...

Re: Just bought the game; What were Your first impressions?

My first impression was that it was everything I loved about the old technic modpack in Minecraft, except that it had been made into its own game. This was certainly the game for me, and I've loved every minut of the 100-some hours I've spent on my second base (not counting the one I made in the ...

Re: [Pending] Unable to create sprite (3836X2111) probably not enough of v

This issue is with the computer going to sleep, I was able to reproduce this just by closing my laptop lid (new laptop - that sends it to sleep).

It looks like this has come up before:

Re: [0.13.2] Crash Bug, Blueprint book?

I figure it was that, but it said to post it, so I did.

I did wonder if it might be something else, because it normally only pulls 25% of my CPU (unless enemies agro - it pulls ~90% then) and an average of .5 Gb pretty constantly, and I've never had any issues before, however, I might NOT have had ...

Re: [0.13.1] Watch Your Step

I was run over by a train in 0.13.2 on a save straight from 0.12.x and didn't get it either. I think it's still bugged.

[0.13.2] Crash Bug, Blueprint book?

I was had advanced info on, and was using the blueprint book, and I scrolled (don't remember if I had shift pressed), and suddenly, all models and icons disappeared. Then, a few seconds later, the squares of color that had been still there (from adv. info) disappeared, then my screen went black ...

Re: Ineventory dissapeared....

It looks like saves from 0.12.x are not having their MP names imported in 0.13.2. Don't know why, but a fix would be good.

I had to grab a hexeditor and bring up the server file - thankfully that still had my username in there, or I'd have been guessing for a long time (though, where are user ...
