Factorio works on FreeBSD

[Oks4]

I tried to look for this information before myself but could not find any. Thus I had to give it a go myself and decided to post it here in case would be of help to anyone else. My desktop is running wayland sway on 14.1-RELEASE-p6.

Code: Select all

# Enable Linuxlator
sysrc linux_enable="YES"
service linux start

# Install Linux libraries
pkg install linux_base-rl9 linux-rl9-xorg-libs linux-rl9-wayland linux-rl9-libglvnd linux-rl9-libsndfile linux-rl9-alsa-lib linux-rl9-pulseaudio-libs linux-rl9-opus linux-rl9-dri

# Start the game
./factorio/bin/x64/factorio
