The network code used to download multiplayer maps can be optimized, resulting in generally faster map downloads. Here in Germany, many ISPs offer highly asymmetric DSL lines, like 16MBit/s down, 0.5MBit/s up. Because the factorio network code uses about 4 times the number of packages in upload dire...

I think this is intentional. At least the early mock-ups, like shown in https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-246, already show those wide buttons. But under some circumstances, the text on other buttons gets truncated, while the large green button grabs most of the horizontal space available. This...

There are quite some different keyboard layouts out there … The scan code based approach looks reasonable. I use the german »neo2« layout, so my keyboard looks like this: http://neo-layout.org/grafik/druckvorlage/neo-druckvorlage.png (Ignore the bottom row. The image is a low resolution render of a ...

I hope that this will resolve itself when the renderer rewrite hits in 0.17. When only render deadlocks, then the game should therefore continue doing autosaves. Since that stopped (huge time diff in log without saves), I conclude it was the prepare step. If this happens again, would a full memory d...

This does not happen often and I have not found any reproduction steps. The steam version runs fine for days worth of play time, so its not that I can't play because of this. I thougth about it a bit more: It might be a lock in the graphics driver caused by some weird interactions between Factorio, ...

Well, This might be 1/0 magic… I got a deadlock. Rendering stops. Simulation stops (CPU load drops to 13% of a single core.). Autosaves stop being saved. It now happened the second time, the first time was several versions ago, but I don’t remember which 0.16.x version that was. After I got the dead...

Currently, all logs are from the windows version. GPU vendor is mixed (AMD, NVidia). Maybe try to force the game to use the OpenGL renderer to see if this is specific to the Direct3D renderer: Open config\config.ini in the user data directory (https://wiki.factorio.com/Application_directory) Then en...

Der Großteil der elektrische Energie verbrauchenden Maschinen hat einen Leerlaufverbrauch (»Drain« in der englischen Version). In der derzeitigen Übersetzung sind im Infofenster am linken Rand zwei Zeilen: ----- Energieverbrauch: <x> kW Verbrauch: <y> kW Elektrizität: [----<Anzeigebalken>---] ------...

Thank you!
This is one of those tiny little things towards perfection.
It just looked like it was forgotten unintentionally when the feature was introduced, therefore got a bug report.

Hi, In 0.16.21, you added: Gui The left/right switch used in locomotive and splitter can be also switched by clicking the label buttons. But it seems you forgot to add the same for the blacklist/whitelist switch in the Deconstruction Planner. Maybe use your IDEs »search usage« functionality on the s...

I noticed that I am able to squeak through directly connected storage tanks sometimes. It is not deterministically reproducible, because it depends on user input. If the player is in the correct position (like in the attached save), it is 100% reproducible. I got to this state 4 or 5 times while fid...

This is kind of different from mining a train stop which is the next stop on a schedule. If the train moves backwards , is switched to automatic mode and the pathfinder finds a path from the current position to the destination leading in the opposite direction, it can always do a normal break stop, ...

Observed behaviour: If you currently drive a two-headed train (or a single-headed train backwards) in manual mode and switch on automatic mode, the train instantly drops to zero speed if the new destination is in the opposite direction. Expected behaviour: The train should decelerate/break regularly...

I’m affected by this bug, too. For me, it happened back in version 0.14.x, which did not unlock eco-unfriendly upon researching oil processing. I migrated my map to 0.15 and still did not get that achievement. The achievements window looks like this: (Granted computer age 2 achievement shows that oi...
