Re: [2.0.76] Crash loading save (TrainManager::checkConsistency)
Intel extended warranty to 5 years after date of purchase, so this CPU can be RMA'd. Don't hesitate to do this, your symptoms suggest your CPU took permanent damage from the manufacturing flaw. No Bios update afterwards is able to repair, the CPU is permanently damaged. Do update the Bios when you ...

Re: [Solved] I need help with the terms of a license.
Thank you for your work on modding!
I really appreciate that you’re using the correct licence for your projects. :)
Regarding the source code, I wasn’t aware of how it’s handled in Factorio, as I’m not a modder myself. In RimWorld, modders have to provide compiled DLLs, which makes things more ...

Re: [2.0.76] Crash loading save (TrainManager::checkConsistency)
Your CPU belongs to the Raptor Lake family, which has known issues that can lead to permanent hardware degradation under certain conditions. If you're experiencing frequent crashes, especially during gaming or high-load scenarios, your CPU may already be damaged. This is not an isolated case, it's a ...

Re: I need help with the terms of a license.
No source code , restrictive license, not FOSS.
FWIW, I don't publish the source code of my own mods anywhere – it's just not necessary! Simply unzip the mod, then you can see the Lua code in plain text. It would be different if mods were precompiled binary blobs, but as Factorio mods ...

Re: Constant crashing
And another thing:
Your four Hynix RAM sticks seem to be running at overclocked speed of 2666 MT/s. See if you can decrease it to defaut speed of 2400 MT/s in BIOS. It maybe the cause of system instability.

Re: [2.0.76][linux] Crash on startup
Glad you sorted it.
I think that's the reason:
Environment: DISPLAY=:0 WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
Video driver: x11
You are running Wayland but X11 gets involved somehow, and game crashes. Maybe Steam is telling it to do it - do you have Steam installed indirectly via some Snap or Flatpak?

Try running directly, not through Steam. Download the game from https://factorio.com/download

Re: I need help with the terms of a license.
I find it strange that an open-source environment would impose those kinds of restrictions.
It isn’t the open-source environment that imposed it. It’s simply an author who chose to release their mod with restrictive terms instead of using widely adopted licenses like GPL or the 3-Clause BSD ...

Re: Factorio not launching from Steam on Linux (Ubuntu 24.04) -> workaround using Legacy Runtime
You seem to be playing a Windows version of the game through Steam compatibility layer (Proton), meanwhile Wube has released a game natively for Linux.
Which is more effecient and stable? I think the latter, and that's what you should consider.

Re: [2.0.76.0][linux] Close / freeze when minimizing and restoring game window
I also run kwin with wayland, but on Fedora (KDE) instead of the rolling release distribution you are using, CachyOS.

Re: [2.0.76][linux] Crash with "video memory usage all"
Well the issue is that factorio is the only game im actually having issues with when it comes to any programs.
The problem is likely related to your GPU driver rather than Factorio itself. dmesg output you provided shows kernel errors tied to the graphics driver, which indicates a system-level ...

Re: [2.0.76][linux] Crash with "video memory usage all"
Driver error like this, well... indicate problem with the driver, not the game. Since Factorio is proven to work fine on Nvidia cards under Linux, my suggestion is this:
1. Replace Archlinux rolling distro with fixed release distro, to increase stability and reduce number of bugs you are exposed to ...
