    didn't get any info about the progress.

  • Fixed cutting off last character of single word console commands.
  • Fixed the 32bit versus 64bit desync issue related to damage (and health manipulation).
  • Fixed the wrong buildability check for curved rail versus gate.
  • Fixed that the car wasn't always pushed by transport belts.
  • Fixed that the scorchmark was created water.
• Optimisations

Use the automatic updater if you can (check experimental updates in other settings) or download full installation at http://www.factorio.com/download/experimental.

Reduced the savegame size by 53%, this reduces also the saving time by roughly 40%.

This is good news.

The game now crashes when I manually save in a multiplayer game (Windows 8.1 x64, also using treefarm and some dytech which worked in 0.11.6)

can't date on OS X 10.10 I get the error message and the game crashes

I updated the client and now im having problem with my transport belts: the itens cant pass trough, he get stucked.

It might be related to the position migration, does it work when you get the blocked items, or does it get stucked again eventually?

Autosaves seem to work, I managed to save manually after that one time, too, but saving after that caused a crash again.

It seems you are launching Factorio directly from the dmg file you downloaded. While this works, the application has just read-only access to its files and it cannot do some thigs (like updating itself).

To fix this you can either drag the Factorio app to the applications folder (shortcut to it is inside the dmg file next to the app), or manually download factorio from the web again.
The first version is recommended, because it is faster to download and checks the updates automatically on each start.

That is great to hear that the auto saving has been optimized. though I am a bit worried about the crashes with manual saving.

Here's a video to show what happens:

@edit
I removed the zig-zag and its appear to be solved. Maybe can be problem with the water borders.

We had the same problem in our multiplayer game. i reported the bug here (https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... f=7&t=7442). Savefile will be there soon.

It's not the zig-zag. It appears on straight belts also (see screenshot in the bug report).

Nice update savefile from my 60+ hours game are reduced from 22 Mb to 13 Mb. But i also get trubbel on many belts were i had to fix the zick zack whole producction was not producing because of this.

I noticed the player running animation looks more believable, nice one! Its a bit jerky when wearing 6 exoskelotens but thats minor.

the dreaded late friday release! you fell for it again, kovarex

I think I have a similar issues with belts:



It works if I straighten it out, then stops working again when I reverse the change.

Example of fix:



I can add a savegame later if it would help.

Please don't post pictures of bugs which are only reconizable in a moving manner. All this pictures of your belts are useless, because you can't see any mistake.

On mac 10.9.5 when trying to update I get a Notice saying "Update failed:
File /Applications/factorio.app/Contents/data/changelog.txt has unexpected content"

this. Same here. also with dytech and treefarm. Otherwise it seems stable. We've continued our 11.6 game since the update was live.

Wow, that's an impressive optimization. Good job guys.

I just upgraded to 0.11.7 and have been experiencing crashes due to floating point exceptions. It happened when I selected drones ( logistic or construction ) from my inventory.
Loading an autosave, I can select drones but It still crashes after a few minutes. ( I use linux x64)

I guess it's a nice occasion to start over (this factory was messy anyways ), but I thought I should let you know.
