So here we provide you with another bugfix release for the 0.11.

Bugfixes

- Fixed the missing refresh of tiles of new generated areas in map editor.
- Fixed the missing (and crashes related to) blueprint previews.
- Compatibility fix of loading saves containing mods changing electric poles.
  The saves must be first saved in 0.11.8+ to be loadable with different electric pole mod configuration.
- Fixes of the frozen input states of character related to switching to map mode.
- Fixed that the roboport antenna animation was randomly drawn under the roboport.
  Modes affected: Walking, mining, vehicle riding, picking items.

- Fixed that input/output material of assembling machine was lost when doing recipe reset.
- The car can now accepts fuel and ammo into the trunk by inserter or shift/control click even when the

Amazing! That screenshot gives us in the IRC channel a LOT of hope to have a nice 3+ player game. Thank you all, as always!

Does this mean car/tank refueling and rearming stations are basically nerfed?

Yes, the priority of unified behavior is more important.

At least on my Mac, the updater has the same problem that started in 11.7 (edit: the problem would have been with the updater in 11.6 - auto update worked 5-6, but not 6-7). The process crashes the first time; when you re-launch and it tries again, it gives up with the message "File /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/data/changelog.txt has unexpected content" because the newer change log was already in place (seems a bit odd to be relying on content of the change log for update version control, but the crash is the real problem).

Relevant bits of the crash log below (sorry, but can't get the "spoiler=" tag to work):

It will also be nice when you eventually become an Apple "identified developer", though if the updater worked then the extra security steps wouldn't be necessary. In the meantime, this is a very nice piece of work, and the save improvements (in 11.7) were particularly welcome. Thanks.

3 player multiplayer crashed several times for one of the players .... 2 player works like charm.

Hmm .. what were the systems involved? Does the last player always crash, even when you try different order of connecting?

Cloner · Post by **Cloner** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 9:41 pm

Yes its always the last player.

Post by **kovarex** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 9:42 pm

You messaged me, that you use some system to simulate local area network, are you sure all the players are using it ? All the players need to be in the same network (connectable) at the same time.

Cloner · Post by **Cloner** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 9:48 pm

Yeah all are using it, we can ping each other on this network, we can talk over built in teamspeak on this network, and any 2 of us can play with zero problems... Adding the third player is a challange

That's unfortunate since it breaks up my existing automation. Can we get a way to limit car inputs like chest have then?

Rahjital · Post by **Rahjital** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 10:04 pm

There's nothing hard about setting up refuel stations now. Just place a smart inserter taking fuel out of the car at the same time as another inserter will put it in - it will not work until you've got fuel in your trunk, so when it starts working, you'll know that the car is ready to go. Same with ammo.

ikanreed · Post by **ikanreed** » Mon Dec 22, 2014 10:28 pm

Until self-driving cars are included, I don't see the point of automated refueling anyways.

The 32 bit versions of the release (https://www.factorio.com/get-download/d ... lpha/win32 and https://www.factorio.com/get-download/d ... n32-manual) don't seem to work yet.

JLBShecky · Post by **JLBShecky** » Tue Dec 23, 2014 1:04 am

Well I do like the smaller file size, I finally upgraded my 0.11.6 world and it went from 11.7k to 3.1k. Now to see if there is anything broken or not.

Unrelated to the reporter, but the same topic: We used Evolve software for the network at first for 0.11.6, but then I just setup my router for the game to be visible on outside (so no tunnels and stuff) - it was the same thing.
I'll try to get people together today to test if 3+ works now with 0.11.8 and report the results.

Yeah hopefully this is fixed soon.

It would be great to test the same people and same save file on Evolve vs direct connections to see if there is any difference. Yesterday we tried to use direct connection and the third player could connect, but we still got some crash after 10 minutes or so.

3+ players are still broken?

Not sure about 3+ multiplayer, but 32-bit links are still broken.
