Hello, it crashes when trying to load Vulkan graphics library to detect what kind of GPU you have. And to my surprise, we don't have an option to disable it.

At first, I thought it was caused by us updating SDL, but that update has not rolled out yet. So I think your graphics driver updated and that broke it.
Can you try following two launch options? Open Factorio properties in Steam Library and set Launch options to

Code: Select all

SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland %command%
If that doesn't help, try

Code: Select all

SDL_VULKAN_LIBRARY=none %command%
