Factorio Forums

Whilst in-game with a long period of gameplay, the game would completly lockup with no CPU load or RAM changes. This would occur after pressing F12 for a screenshot. The crash is random and has been doing it prior to 0.16.36.

My system:
Linux Mint 18.3
I7 4790K
16GB DDR3 RAM
240GB SSD

Post the log after a crash, see my signature.

I think this is the log. Not sure, as I reloaded the game after the crash.

Edit:

I'll run the game for a while. When it crashes, I'll post a log here.

Try updating to the latest version of the game.

I can replicate the bug.

I loaded the game, into a save. Walked around for 1 minute, then pressed F12. Instant freeze. This is the most up to date log (According to the modified date)

I'm not sure why, but the factorio-previous.log hasn't been updating since Jan. Even after this crash.

Edit:
Other times, when I press F12 for a screenshot, nothing is done. Meaning, the game doesn't crash.

Thanks for the report however Factorio doesn't have anything bound to the F12 key - that's all on Steams end. You'll need to contact Steam support about this issue.

Thanks for looking at the issue. I've since changed my Linux to Windows. I'll observe and see if the issue persists.

Thanks.
