[1.1.92] Chart update appears broken after tick overflow

Post by Stevetrov »

This save is from the server "AssemblyStorm's factorio server"

Savefile https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Tha_NW ... drive_link

What did you do?
The tick overflowed over a year ago, we managed to get through the tick over flow by hacking stuff around in the editor.

What happened?
I don't think the chart update has worked properly since.
Recently something kicked it into action and now its constantly using about 10% of update time, and you can no longer zoom in anywhere on the map to get the close up view. The game isnt revealing new chunks. (I walked to the edge of explored territory to check).

Normal view around the play works fine, and zoomed out map view is working but is all greyed out.

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!
I expected (well hoped) that everything would carry on working after a tick overflow.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?
Only ever had a tick overflow once.

If you can reproduce the issue provide the exact steps!
Load the save or log onto the server, its live 24/7

Thanks for the report however once the tick has overflowed the save is broken. We have no plans to try to rescue saves that have gone over the tick limit because the game is simply not designed to do that.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

No worries, thought you might say that.
