Factorio Forums

My friend and I just started to play again. My friend started up a public server and I joined him but almost immediately the game would slow down for both of us. Also the when he is hosting the server stops responding form me intermittently. I will just stop moving and none of my inputs do anything but the world still moves around me. This happens to him as well when I am hosting. This has been occurring for the past few days but has only become worse as we have expanded. We both love this game and want to keep playing but the slow down is almost unplayable. So any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

What are your latency settings? Can you upload a log?

I am not sure how to do that. But all of the setting are the default for a multiplayer lobby. If you still need the log I can upload it but I need a little explanation how to.

See my signature on how to find the log. Latency is adapting automatically in .14.
Post your system specs and how you connect as well.

I hope this helps

It does not, a log with you actually playing the game and experiencing the issue might.

There we go sorry that took so long.
This is when we are both encountering the slowdown.
I will post another log if I get the massive desync where I cant move and everything moves around me.

The log is incomplete, upload the file itself to prevent cutting the log, still need the system specs of the server and lagging player.

A desync is a specific event where the connected players notice that they simulate the map with different results, a report is then created and the desynchronized players are disconnected from the game. Are you really experiencing such an event? If yes then make a bug report and upload/post the desync report (see my signature on where to find it).

These logs are with us playing the game and experiencing lag on and off.
