On factorio 0.12.12, if i have no internet connection, factorio gets to 99% and crashes. Why? is there any fix? attached is the log file as it may help.
EDIT
10 minutes later i launched factorio with an internet connection, and i got a different error in the log, when i got to 99%

Not being able to contact the update server results in an uncaught exception, this should be handled in a more friendly way and could be worth a bug report. As a workaround, you can disable the automatic update check in options -> other or set check_updates=false in config.ini.

You make a post describing the issue in the
bug reports forum.

I've moved this topic to Bug Reports.

This seems to be the same problem as
