I downloaded and extracted the full 0.17.4 tarball, copied over my config and saves into the new structure, then tried to start the game. The first time I tried to start the game I got the following error: 0.000 2019-03-02 06:58:24; Factorio 0.17.4 (build 43174, linux64, alpha) 0.035 Operating syste...

Those are intended decorations on the GUI.

@Hexalan : There is a separate bug report for the bad_alloc on Linux: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=65264

Same here. Latest updates on Ubuntu 18.04 trying to update from 0.17.0 to 0.17.1 always crashes. If I click "Update now" on the popup on startup I get std::bad_alloc. If I select "Ask me later" then go to "About" -> "Check updates" and "Update now" I...

Oh lol! I should totally get some sleep. Thanks

When I insert a logistic robot into a roboport in a tiny network (of only one roboport), it vanishes if it is idle. Happens every time on that save game in that roboport. What is even more surprising, is that when I connect that single roboport into the main logistic network, the effect persists - a...

I would like to second the opinions to make cutscenes optional and/or skippable. The presented clip does make me feel uncomfortable. All required information (objectives/requirements/target location) should have already been presented in other means anyway (text, markers on map, arrow on edge of the...

Spoon isn't twitchy, at least in my opinion it isn't. 8 hours is more than enough time to execute any build you have planned (and perhaps practiced) earlier. It might not be enough if you're going in blind, but the expectation of having a plan fits Factorio reasonably well. Plus it is 8 hours in-gam...

I think the 8 hours achievement is great, and if anything, harder achievements should be added! Achievements should require some effort, not be given out automatically just for having the game installed. I had about ~500 hours in Factorio before I decided to finally sit down and do all the achieveme...

I really like the UI mockup! It looks great! Hover and Press color could be more distinct. IMO that's not too big of an issue, given that the major difference is that *you're pressing on it*. Having a subtle indication that your press was accepted is nice, and you don't want to change it so much to ...

I have been trying to learn to speedrun Factorio recently, and I have the save game with replay data. I am on Factorio 0.16.36 on Linux. When playing the replay I do not seem to be able to enter debug mode nor open the console, and I do not see the game time displayed anywhere. I did not use any mod...

Same here. Ubuntu 17.10. Game doesn't start. Can't play Factorio :( Please fix... /opt/factorio $ ./bin/x64/factorio 0.000 2018-01-23 07:08:46; Factorio 0.16.17 (build 35127, linux64, alpha) 0.030 Operating system: Linux (Ubuntu 17.10) 0.030 Program arguments: "./bin/x64/factorio" 0.030 Re...

I can reproduce the problem, but much earlier. Both freeplay and sandbox. At x <= -10'000 the map generator blows up with sharp vertical edges and artifacts. Explored a sandbox map from -12'000 to +12'000 in both axes: x <= -10'000 -> clearly visible artifacts x >= +10'000 -> looks fine (tested up t...

Awesome! Thanks for the link!

Hi! I woke up this morning asking myself this question: Why is water supply unlimited? Water should run out, just like everything else. Wouldn't it be cool if it did? It would add to the challenge! - You would have to search for new sources of water, just like for the other resources - Water would n...
