[0.12.12] Uncaught exception when checking for updates

Post by tmr_2000 »

On factorio 0.12.12, if i have no internet connection, factorio gets to 99% and crashes. Why? is there any fix? attached is the log file as it may help.

EDIT

10 minutes later i launched factorio with an internet connection, and i got a different error in the log, when i got to 99%

Not being able to contact the update server results in an uncaught exception, this should be handled in a more friendly way and could be worth a bug report. As a workaround, you can disable the automatic update check in options -> other or set check_updates=false in config.ini.

This seems to be the same problem as https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... =7&t=17208, moving to duplicates.
