Can you post a video or gif of it?

unfortunately i cant make it visible in a gif. im trying now to make it visible in a vid... vsync is active but the flicker is still there. funny thing is when i switch back to 15.3 everything is fine but in 15.4 and 15.5 the flicker comes back. i hope i can make it visible in a vid. its hard to see but annoying.

Please note v-sync was on by default in 0.15.3 and it is off by default in 0.15.4 and 5. If you had default value (on) in 0.15.3 it will use default value (off) in 0.15.4.

Yeah, it happened to me as well...

Also, since I didn't know the vsync was active before I did not think about it and so I downgraded to 0.15.3.
When I started factorio I lost all the achievements (I guess because of the downgrade)

Now that I know I am back on 0.15.5 with vsync on (and no achievements, which actually I do not really care for).

The default change sadly was not included in the changelog for 0.15.4 (which I am reading all the time, you guys are awesome!): if I may, changing a default setting should be highlighted next time.
