[0.17.34] Temporary hang during autosave when using train color picker

[aedificatori]

I was fiddling with the green slider in the train GUI color picker when an autosave triggered. The seeming conflict between the moving slider and the autosave caused the game to freeze for about thirty seconds before resuming normal play, albeit having closed out of the train GUI.

I have not yet had the opportunity to try and replicate the issue, but I will update this post if I do get the chance.

Do you have any way to reproduce what you describe? The game doesn't process mouse actions while it's saving the game so I suspect the 2 aren't related.

Same here: Fidling with green locomotive color slider when autosave kicked in -> game frozen (not in task manager, only UI) ... didnt wait if unfroze and killed factorio.exe (factory must grow and i dont have time to wait )

my mods just for reference ... (i dont think that even can stick their fingers on that part of game)

This same issue just occurred for me as well, on 0.17.79. I was changing my train's color (also using the green slider) when autosave kicked in. The autosave UI froze, and I force-quit Factorio after 20-30 seconds (so no crash report/log, sorry!). When I restarted the game, I was able to successfully load that autosave, and it loaded my game to the moment right before I adjusted the train color. No mods.

I can't reproduce any crash. When I set autosave to 1 minute and spam the spiders left and right it works just fine while autosave runs.

are you moving the slider as passanger of a train or moving it in Map - pick train - change color?
are there other possible ways to change the color?
keeping blueprint, deconstrution planer or something else in the hand and then changeing the color?
