[13.13] Crash when loading in background: "57: failed to create display!"
Posted: Thu Aug 04, 2016 5:13 pm
i had this error few times even with "stable" version, and also with previous releases. but with current i'm able to replicate it 100%
what i do
1) run factorio
2) bring another application to front (for example web browser)
factorio in "background" stops loading and throws error.
this doesn't happen if you bring to front other application, after you see factorio logo and "loading" progress. also seems steam version is more susceptible to this problem.
it's just matter of convenience, no big issue, but still i think should be reported
, i put windowed games into background during loading phase, since they tend to take long (especially when you have lot of mods installed and such)
