16.2 works for me on OSX 10.12.6

Someone did some digging into the missing symbols on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... 1/dr7w2hp/

It looks like an issue with the OSX build environment.

Although I agree with some of the new night vision criticism--it could use some work--I really like the thinking behind it! Rewarding placement of lighting is an interesting idea, and other optic benefits could add to the usefulness of researching and wearing night vision goggles. Here's my stab at...

The website now appears to require you be logged in to your factorio account to download the headless server binary. This makes getting that binary onto headless servers more complex as we now have to download it locally then upload it to the server instead of just using wget or curl to grab it dire...

We have a base that covers a large geographic area and keeping repair packs supplied to the roboports along walls is annoying. Since we can't read the count of repair packs in roboports and want to evenly distribute repair packs across the walls we have the following elegant hack. Screen Shot 2016-0...

Awesome thanks! For a curious software engineer can you share what the bug was?

Awesome, glad to give you usable data. I realized that after I verified save 20 worked I never went and re-verified that save 24 caused the desync still and it wasn't some transient issue.

No mods (I did say that in the original post). It appears to be save related. We have the server set to autosave every 5 minutes and have 24 slots. I slowly went back in time until I found a save that worked. Here is a drive folder of the saves: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B0KQRXLIUcBocGw4OC1v...

We are running a headless server with no mods on Google Cloudand generally it works great but every once in a while we get repeated desyncs. Attached is a zip with 3x desync reports - It was just me on the server - I generally have a <15ms ping to the server - factorio is the only thing running on a...

Hrm, how do I do that? I'm still figuring out the circuit system.

It appears that when I attach a stack filter inserter to a circuit network in .13 and set the inserter so that the network sets the filter the inserter can only filter one thing at a time. Even if the input to the inserter has two different item types whichever was set last is what is actually filte...

Starting with .10 and now with .11 our dedicated server is using 100% CPU all the time. We can still join and play and it works just fine but the CPU usage stays pegged.

No problem. I'm also a developer and ran some largeish open source projects for many years. I know the importance of good questions

Never mind .... I didn't read the comments in factorio.service.example

Because of poor planning (and lazyness) I have factorio installed in /opt/factorio/factorio

I just needed to change the PIDFile var in the factorio.service file to point to the correct directory.

I'm trying to use the latest version of the script with Factorio 0.13.8 via systemctl and get a timeout error: edalquist@factorio:~$ sudo systemctl start factorio Job for factorio.service failed because a timeout was exceeded. See "systemctl status factorio.service" and "journalctl -x...
