Hey everyone,
this is just a minor bug which does not interfere directly with the game play:
If you use a Razer Black Widow Chroma and have (in my case) Static lightning and Reactive effect on the keyboard ir flashes like crazy when loading up or when taking damage, obviously because Razer and Factorio's chroma interactions conflict which each other.
To fix it you have to switch to a static lighting Keyboard profile (maybe only Reactive+Static make it flash, I did not test it)
The bug does not really matter that much but whatever
Greetings,

Re: Razer Black Widow Chroma Flashing like crazy when loadup
Thanks for the report. Do you have the latest drivers for your keyboard installed? (updating keyboard drivers... who would have thought that would become a thing )
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Yeah I just checked drivers and Razer Synapse is also up to date (2.21)

Same keyboard, same problem. Really strange... But fun to watch!
Re: Razer Black Widow Chroma Flashing like crazy when loadup
Does it happen all the time? Do you do anything special?
I had this happen randomly very few times and restarting Razer Synapse then the game seemed to work.
I believe this is a a problem with Razer Synapse.

To me this happens usually when I had to restart Synapse without rebooting Windows. (Sometimes Synapse crashes on me, but I can't figure out why - but that's unrelated to Factorio)
You can (temporarily) solve this like this:
1. Start Factorio. Keyboard starts to flicker.
2. Go into Razer Synapse (don't close Factorio)
3. Disable Chroma Apps. Only Synapse's lighting will be visible.
4. Re-enable Chroma Apps. Synapse will now detect Factorio properly and disable its own effects until Factorio is closed.
This seems more like a problem with Synapse's game detection than Factorio, as I also have this with other games like Overwatch.
