Same here, every death causes a freeze, desync and inability to join the game by the dead player - we have to reload the game from save and make sure everyone has restarted their Factorio, otherwise server just crashes.

We play with 99 ms setting, 3 people, pings are 45-49 and 80-85.

Between some players you can't even make a 2 man game, it just fails, despite pings being good. It desyncs and you can't do anything about it at all, just look for other people to play with. At least with 0.11.8 if you tried 3-4 times and it does not stabilize - forget it, try playing with other peo...

TS has people from time to time, I actually use it when needed.
But we are already playing together through the Evolve anyway, and FishSandwich refused to use TS

Given a try to IRC - better chances of getting a reply on Evolve, because people are joining the Hydra group to play, not just idle

The ore compression/decompression is cool. The mining drills, well, higher tiers should be bigger so you can't stamp as many of them as lvl 1 in the same area. And I think the area of mining for the lvl 6 is just too big. Usually, with higher tiers there are diminishing returns, not a straight arith...

Running 0.11.8 with up to 5 people on and off, direct connection without Hamachi/evolve/etc. Runs fine for everyone, we all are in the EU, so pings are 45-50. One has 80 to the host - running server at 99. Connecting is a hassle sometimes, the order of who connects after who is relevant very much - ...

I'm pretty sure you're joking about tank being "mid game". You can get it out in the midgame, by crafting blue packs semi-manually, but that require you to specifically focus on it, and in general it's hardly any different from rushing laser towers without much automation (it IS possible,...

Well, it feels like some of you are not talking about the "most frequent, the biggest, the very good" settings for the biters, and that's what i'm talking about. The end game means that you have capsules and enough of them to be killing everything you want (although at those settings you c...

Hello everyone. I was chatting with FishSandwich and I kind'a nailed the description of how game feels on harder levels of biters Warning: I'm copy-pasting the chat message as is, some hard language is present (nothing you don't hear in the movies though) 8:25 psihius: they just need to tune that mi...

And in multiplayer you can all ride the same train, just board different wagons/locomotive

You messaged me, that you use some system to simulate local area network, are you sure all the players are using it ? All the players need to be in the same network (connectable) at the same time. Unrelated to the reporter, but the same topic: We used Evolve software for the network at first for 0....

Same happened to us today - as soon as 3rd player connects - black screen and full freeze for first two players. Sometimes game crashes to desktop no matter what you do. We played through Evolve. In our case we all where Windows x64 bit 0.11.6 - we did fresh installs from the installer. Could not fi...

Also looking for someone to play with. My 3rd week in factorio, but this is my type of game, so I have figured it out for the most part and definitely will not be bothering with stupid questions :) I have put, as far as I can remember, around 100 hours into the game already. I'm from Latvia, GTM +2....
