That is my understanding, yes.RocketWill wrote:So when factorio is released on steam, everybody who got it here is going to get a code to get it on steam, correct?
The Updates (so far) are already not charged.cpy wrote:You know that if you register steam code any future updates or DLCs will get 30% less profit for factorio devs right? So if you want to support devs more DO NOT USE steam key. So basicaly if you buy it on steam developers get 30% less. There's that so now you know.
In addition to this I also appear to be having some sort of odd rendering issue with electric pole wires now:Apotheosis wrote:Anyone else having a problem with screen tearing? I tried switching to fullscreen and turning on vsync with no effect. This has never been a problem for me with Factorio before until now.
What changed?
The question is if 0.11.22 can be updated at all. And the update package is almost as big as the full download anyway, so just download the instlaler. You don't need to uninstall the previous version, IIRC.DeserveVictory wrote:How long can I expect to wait until the in-game update feature will update to 0.12? I'm too lazy to uninstall and reinstall with a new download, and my internet here is so bad that it's prohibitive to do that anyways.
Not to mention 64 bit windows autoupdate is disabled.cube wrote:The question is if 0.11.22 can be updated at all.

Yeah, it's great. Kinda reminds me of Fallout 2, I don't know whyboro wrote:The new soundtrack is amazing guys, I just hope it gets extended a little.
If actual latency goes higher than the setting, the game will freeze until it catches up. You lock in a latency slightly higher than it really is so the game keeps running smoother albeit with more lag in the feel of actions.Stickman wrote: Why is there that slider to begin with? Wouldn't you always want that latency to be as low as possible?? Why even give the option to manually increase latency?
The game could automatically figure out the best setting for you though.roy7 wrote:If actual latency goes higher than the setting, the game will freeze until it catches up.

Yeah, ideally some sort of adaptive timeout.Zeblote wrote:The game could automatically figure out the best setting for you though.roy7 wrote:If actual latency goes higher than the setting, the game will freeze until it catches up.

You have the windows page file on your ssd? this will "wear" it out far more. Actually the ssd are way tougther than most people think. Dont care for the factorio saves.RocketWill wrote:I have one more questaion, I have factorio on an SSD and i do not want to wear it out, is the save file on the main factorio install?
Yeaaaah that's not a thing. Only swap space and window's update can really wear an SSD out. Tiny things like save files won't do that.RocketWill wrote:I have one more questaion, I have factorio on an SSD and i do not want to wear it out, is the save file on the main factorio install?
Modern SSDs have a "normal" lifespan of about 8-10 years. Think back to 2005, at that time the first 1TB drives came available, but standard was somewhere around 300-400 GB. So who would use a 5 year old disc in an productive system? You would have exchanged it before failure most probably.bobucles wrote:Yeaaaah that's not a thing.

A combination of firmware and software tries to wear out all of a SSD's storage cells fairly evenly. I think the best practice is still to not format an SSD for its full size. Leave 10-15%'ish unformatted to be used by TRIM.
Rather than 20-30 now I get 10-15, half of which are the new green ones... I guess it is a reduction. Still, it forces me to double the amount of turrets all over the place to keep them from doing any damage. Way too annoying. I would like the old swarm of enemies back.FishSandwich wrote:It was talked about a few Friday facts ago, they were basically added to reduce the strain on pathfinding.roman566 wrote:Why bigger enemies were added? The defense strategy will remain the same - just add more turrets. The attack strategy will not change - just use more turrets. So, what's the point of them other than forcing the player to build more turrets?
