Version 0.11.8

[Eurofighter1200]

Nice! Switch from 11.6 to 11.8 that was a really nice boost of speed on our 3 Players MP after that it was really cool to play even with our big base and fight was a lot better.

When I try to run Factorio 0.11.8 it comes up with the message
C:/Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\config\config.ini(1): '=' character not found in line

It looks like misformated config file, you can delete the config.ini and the game will create default one (You loose your config)

32bit does not work properly in MP: Game desyncs e.g. on death of a player and even connecting has its problems

confirmed.. same problems here.

Did all players have the same bit version? You can create a thread in the bug subforum, but please look if there's already a thread with this.

After several problems with connection issues related to peer-to-peer-problems (stupid routers etc.) we identified the following:
11.8 32bit - definetely unstable, worse than before
11.8 64bit - desync and/or crash on death of one player

For the moment we're playing 11.6 64bit - works fine for LAN with several players and no crashes on players taking damage or dying.

I've been here since the original funding for the game and I am continually amazed at the work you guys are doing. You guys seem to be doing better work than large production studios and you actually fix the game you are making. Since 2.0 this game has been more stable than the past few AAA games I have bought and it is more fun. Keep up the amazing work!

I've got a bunch of friends interested in the game, they are just waiting for it to be "finished". When this game is finished it will take off like the first Simcity did.

Hello Kovarex,

I would like follow unstable version, but since you change Glibc compilator, Factorio don't work on Ubuntu 12.04.
Do you plan to change that in future ? Or must i have a more modern distribution for playing ?

Thank's for youy work.

The car can now accepts fuel and ammo into the trunk by inserter or shift/control click even when the
burner/ammo slots are already full, so it goes to the trunk.

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

Yes, the priority of unified behavior is more important.

In that case I'd really want to be able to limit cars' and tanks' trunk sizes and set filters.
That would be consistent with how trains work and, in case of limiting the total size, how any other inventory, except for the player's, works.
Please make it possible to use auto-refueling without weird hacks.

Edit:

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.

Btw this is what I mean by weird hack. This may work *somehow* but it doesn't really work with supplying amo at the same time, nor does it really support multi-vehicle stations.

Just a thought, although this might make the whole thing a little too easy: Requester/Provider functionality for Vehicles, i.e. make them part of the logistics network same as the player. Possibly via a new science tree item.

That actually sounds like a simple and effective solution. Powerful, but simple.

I recently picked up this game again. I had a 9.8 build(I think) on my old computer. That screenshot looks amazing! Downloaded the new build, 11.10 at work. Cant wait to get home and try out all the new stuff.

Sorry to post on an old release thread, but I just came across the inserter/trunk issue and was looking for the cause of the problem.

I agree with the other commenters on the issue that we need SOMETHING to be able to get this working again, and if you are looking for consistency then giving them the ability to limit the space available like chests seems the best option.
