Thanks, there's certainly something weird going on. When you hover over the laser turret icon in the crafting menu, the tooltip will say that power consumption is 2.4 MW, as it should be. But when you place it, it's suddenly 6.2 MW.

Is this map migrated from 0.11 or did you start it in 0.12?

You can attach it here when replying to this thread.

Can you send me your save?

Something's wrong there, this might be a bug actually. You're supposed to see 4.8 MW. Is the turret connected to two different electric networks?

roman566 wrote:Oh, I just checked Wiki. Laser Turret had 600 kW drain, now it has 6 MW... ten times more. Did I miss it in patch or something?

Where did you get the 6 MW figure? Hovering over a laser turret clearly shows drain of 24 kW for me. Are we talking vanilla turrets?

THANK YOU. Hopefully this will prevent my 5 year old from deleting all my saves....again...should he sneak onto my computer.

You sure a 5-year-old won't just OK the confirmation dialogue?

So, you want the game to just hang for a few seconds as it autosaves? In that case, you're out of luck – we definitely want to tell the user that the game is doing something instead of just hanging for a bit. Yes, I do. You don't forget about unexperienced users, which is good and important. But ma...

When you're dealing with GUI tweaks, will you also (at least optionally) remove the autosave progress bar? :) Or am I the only one who's still bugged by this every time? As always, looking forward to what's up next. You're still doing great work! So, you want the game to just hang for a few seconds...

Welcome to the Internet.

You can use pgrep facserver instead of ps aux | grep facserver. Advantage in using pgrep instead of ps and grep is that pgrep won't list itself in the output. Which means you can simply check its return status instead of checking the actual text output – useful in scripts in general, not just here.

since you are just renaming old savegame file into backup file this is done quickly and there is no danger of data damage (even in case of power loss) as if you would be copying data into backup file. Yeaaah, that was the reasoning behind our current saving code, I'm sure. What Factorio does is the...

One thing I would like for the creator of Factorio Game to do is. Place a confirmation popup when deleting a Saved World. Pressing Delete Save instantly deletes it, but if you mistakenly misclicked on the wrong Saved World, you're basically screwed. It just happened to me. There should be a confirm...

Okay, thanks.

Upon closer inspection, this seems to be this bug, which will be fixed in 0.12.1. Basically, the server tried to play a sound and crashed because it doesn't have its sound subsystem initialised.

Yes, this is a known bug. Don't do it.

Instead, you can do The bug might get fixed eventually, but it's low priority.

Well, yes. Pretty much everything drains power even when idling, including laser turrets. Or am I misunderstanding something?

I can't reproduce the crash here. Can you provide more details? Do you know what you and other players were doing at the time it crashed? What is the exact command line you used to start the server? Anything else?

I made some changes to the saving code, so hopefully there won't be any more issues like this.

I see. I'm afraid that campaigns are broken in 0.12.0. This will be fixed in 0.12.1. Sorry about that.

Fixed for 0.12.1. Thanks.

Fixed in 0.12.1.
