Factorio Forums

Edit: I've confirmed that this is fixed as of 2.0.20

1. Start placing a parameterized blueprint
2. Inside the "Select Parameter 0" dialog, use the Open Factoripedia shortcut (L2+R2+A) on an entry in the dialog.

What I expect

Open Factoripedia for the selected entry, so that I can review its crafting requirements.

What happened

Opened a second copy of the "Select Parameter 0" dialog, layered on top of the first one.
3. Close the newly opened dialog by selecting the [X] in the top-right corner or by pressing (B).

4. Select a value for Parameter 0 in the original dialog and confirm (with the (Y) global-confirm shortcut). In the small test save (without quality unlocked), simply selecting a value with (A) is sufficient for this step.

What happened

Upon hitting confirm, the game crashes.

Notes:

I'm playing on Steam Deck with the controller input mode. When I asked one of my friends to try to reproduce with mouse and keyboard, it opened Factoripedia as expected. No GUI bug, no crash.

On the Steam Deck, I consistently get the above bug and crash when repeating these steps. Happens in both my main save file and the attached small test save file. Just in case the blueprint matters, I copied it into the Game Blueprints for the small save file.

Edit: Oh right. The Steam Deck is using the linux install, whereas my friend is on windows, so the difference could be OS and/or controller input.

Update. This crash still occurs in 2.0.17 on my Steam Deck. And I've confirmed some additional cases:

• Steam Deck with native controller input (as above): crash
• Steam Deck with keyboard input: no issue
• Linux desktop with Steam Controller input: crash
• Linux desktop with keyboard input: no issue

So it seems to be specific to controller input.

This has been fixed as of 2.0.20 and can be closed.

I don't see any obviously related notes in the changelogs, but I'm happy to report that this opening the Factoripedia shortcut from the select-Parameter-value menu via controller works now.

As far i can tell it is related to 120531 and i can still reproduce it in 2.0.20, even without the extra "control+shift" modifiers (just by double clicking) so i can move this to duplicates instead if you want.
