As seen in the picture below from this FFF(
https://www.factorio.com/blog/post/fff-85) then it's currently scheduled for 0.13
You can use Evolve to connect with your friends until IPv6 is supported

I really want to squeeze this into 0.12.0, but it is possible that there won't be enough time. Problem is that we still want to support Windows XP, and the easy way to make an application dual stack doesn't work there

I have spent my money wisely. I really do appreciate your response and all the work that has already been put into this game. Thank you very much for the explanation.

IPv6 made it into 0.12, we played local IPv6 game few days ago and it worked.

It seems that there is a problem in the newest update with the IPv6. Everytime I try to host or connect to a server (even with an invalid IP), I get this error: "Binding IPV6 socket failed: An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket.". It's obviously related to IPv6 and might be related to Windows XP.

Just chiming in I'm getting the same problem as the above poster here. Running on Windows XP and IPv4 myself.
