The game gets to 98% and then a pop up with this message.

Value must be a dictionary in property tree at ROOT.other

Just go into your Steam settings and disable "Enable Steam Cloud synchronization for applications which support it".
Not sure what it has to do with that, but this will help until it is fixed.

Exactly the same problem here, the named workaround also works for me. Thanks for the info :-)

Windows 7 Professional 64bit, Core i5-2500K, GFX 980, 16GB RAM, SSDs

I'm also experiencing the same (or at least a similar) issue. The game crashed on start.

Here's my latest Factorio error log: https://uploads.timvisee.com/shutter/fa ... urrent.log

I'm running an Ubuntu 17.04 x64 machine and updated the game to 0.15.x from 0.14.23.
That, with 16GB RAM, an i5-4670K, a GTX550Ti and an SSD.

Edit: Disabling Steam Cloud sync does seem to be a valid workaround.

Actually my Steam for Linux doesn't have the option to disable steam cloud for the specific application.

For me though disabling it globally did the trick as well.

Yes, that's indeed what I did to make it work. Thanks for the clarification :)

Ah my bad. I should have posted it on the release thread where someone attached the screenshot. Well I guess who's looking for the workaround will come here too sooner or later. :)

Please also include the save file(s), any mods you may be using, and any steps you know of to reproduce the crash.
And I can confirm that deactivating the Steam Cloud Sync makes it work on Ubuntu 16.04! Yey! :D

(This is done via "right click on game" -> properties -> updates -> remove the checkmark at "enable steam cloud synchronization for factorio.".)

I had the same error, turning off the cloud sync did the trick. Hope this is fixed soon because I play across 3 different systems so I rely on the cloud sync feature to sync my saves across all those devices.

Just enable it again when you quit the game, then the files should be synced.
It just seems to crash the game when the box is checked, not when loading a file that was synced.
Thus turning syncing on/off all the time is fine, even though it's a bit of a hassle.

Also had this issue and the workaround also allowed me to start up. Attached "previous" log which should be the one with the crash.

Edit: I had a number of mods installed and a few enabled. I'm guessing the log will show all that, but wanted to point it out.
Enabled was "Crafting Speed Research", "Initial Scan", and "Train Outpost".

Edit2: I removed all mods and still had the issue. I did a clean uninstall (deleted appdata) and reinstall and the problem went away.

The bug does now seem to have been fixed, in the newly released 0.15.1 version. Awesome!

It's possible to disable the steam cloud fuctionallity on linux for each single game if you also use the steam beta version.
