Factorio Forums

On startup, the window title is set to 'Allegro', not Factorio.
It stays that way until you maximise/minimise, at which time it changes to 'Factorio 0.12.8'.

Factorio 0.12.8 build 16825, mac
Macbook Pro, OSX, latest

I can confirm that the title is set to 'Allegro' on Windows just before the system loads the files.

Factorio does not set the title information before the window is created. Something they can do if they wanted to.

Instead, it's changed from the engine name to the game name sometime during startup, I guess after version information and a few other bits are loaded.

Not sure if it's even a bug, a lot of games do it this way and it isn't an issue.

For me it is even helpful, as it makes borderless window gaming trigger a bit later, letting me use the monitor a bit longer before Factorio is stretched across the entirety of it.

On the Mac, it stays as Allegro until I maximise/minimise the window. (I start in windowed mode on both Mac and Linux)

Factorio on LInux changes it so quickly that it's barely noticable, although I can see the change when I am looking for it.

Thx for the report, we have been able to fix the issue for 0.12.17
