Well this type of filtering is entirely out of our control. Are you able to access https://direct.factorio.com ?
Great, you can add this to your config.ini to let Factorio use the Cloudflare bypass.
Code: Select all

What is the reason for this? Will there be a fix later?vinzenz wrote: ↑Tue Jul 04, 2023 10:41 amWell this type of filtering is entirely out of our control. Are you able to access https://direct.factorio.com ?
Without knowing for sure I can only guess that some Government body in China blocked the webpage for some reason. China blocks a lot of websites.gggthiopb6 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 06, 2023 6:37 pmWhat is the reason for this?

The reach covers the whole of China, and some Chinese players can't even access the Factorio website. Are you figuring out what the problem is? I want to know if it's really a government restriction, or something else that is the exact reason?Rseding91 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 06, 2023 8:53 pmWithout knowing for sure I can only guess that some Govenernment body in China blocked the webpage for some reason.

As far as I know; nobody is looking into it. We have no reports about issues outside of China which leads me to believe the issue is that and it’s between people living in China and the Chinese government blocking sites to deal with it.gggthiopb6 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 06, 2023 9:59 pm The reach covers the whole of China, and some Chinese players can't even access the Factorio website.

Now the problem seems to have somehow disappeared? I don't know if it's just me, or if you guys solved the problem?Rseding91 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 06, 2023 11:00 pmAs far as I know; nobody is looking into it.
