The playtime is over 19,881 hours!!
So some quick mental arithmetic tells me that’s over 4.3 billion ticks.

Weird. I've tried downloading the map and I get the same bug without any mods installed. (Fresh install 1.1.3) If you mark hundreds of entities for deconstruction they do get a red cross on them, but then the red crosses quickly get removed one by one. It even sets trains to manual when trying to de...

Premier69: Do you mean when the predicted path changes rapidly in weird patterns? If so, this looks like pressing the 'r' key to rotate the direction of the final piece of the predicted path. This overrides the default logical pathfinding. So it looks strange until the streamer presses 'r' to get ba...

I've tested again with the save file I sent to you. I've also tested again with the autosave from 1 minute after the save file I sent to you. Both crash at the gametime just after the autosave when using the official factorio.exe Both don't crash when using the new edited factorioWORKING.exe I have ...

OK, thanks. I tried setting all trains to manual using The Fat Controller mod, but it still crashed, so I presume that once the logic loop has started, then cancelling all re-pathing won't also cancel the loop. As a fix I've increased the .exe stack size so that I can carry on using the save file (f...

Glad to hear that the bug is fixed for 0.17.

Are you able to explain the cause of the bug?
Is there anyway to fix the save file(s)?

I've just tested Nosferatu's map and it crashes for me too. But interestingly after around 36 seconds. (@60UPS)
Log file attached.

Hi Rseding91,
Original post has been updated with new links to saves and mods.

I think 1M science/hour is definitely possible. 2 or 3M science/hour should be achievable too, but like BigTrains said, the science per hour in real time will drop due to a lower UPS. @Alien_Squasher How did you get 1.6k science/second though? For 1M/hour, I calculate 16.7k science/minute or 277.7 s...

Apologies. Log file updated.

Hi, I have a map where it crashes to desktop with no Factorio error message popup. The log file shows "ERROR: Factorio crashed due to Stack overflow error" Audio is disabled on the PC so ignore these errors in the log file. I am not performing any actions at the time of the crash. It seems...

I've played three games in Factorio with a real long-term goal other than simply launching a rocket. I started #1 below in 0.15 and put it on hold when 0.16 was released until 0.16 was stable. In the meantime completed #2 and I'm almost done with #3. 1) 60rpm (Vanilla+) I planned this map from the s...

“Slightly adjusted some recipe craft times to better reflect their ingredient count.”

Please can you specify what these are?

Heya, 0.16 is just out.
Will this be updated?
Many thanks.

Nice map. It looks cool, but I don’t quite understand it. Why have you gone for this design? 1) It looks like only the raw resources are delivered by train. So why have all of the city block rails? 2) If you’re going to add in loading and unloading stations on the existing city blocks, won’t deadloc...

I don't think that works. All trains would get the signal and leave the station. Then all but one is blocked at the signal. But when it has left the signal turns green and the next train can leave. They don't return to the station. You’re right, it wouldn’t work with a stacker using train stations....

The logic sounds like it should work, but it depends on your setup.
So 2 greens circuit signal are being sent too early.
Run it for a while and report back why.

I’m not on Factorio to test this, but I think it would work. Using your example, the signal I=1 would be sent when iron ore = 0. This signal would have a timer that stops I=1 being sent after around 2-3 seconds, this would allow only 1 train to exit the waiting bays. A second timer allows the I=1 to...

I also use leitk’s design without the rail signal. It works well if you have only a couple of different unloading station types. If it’s a long distance or a main line then it probably isn’t suitable. Using this method you don’t need to use a circuit condition to tell trains to go to the unloading s...

Yes, LazyGao, you're logic is right. However, it doesn't quite work like that for RPM challenges. Speedrunning to the first rocket launch, like AntiElitz does every weekend on Twitch, is measured in time in real life. When measuring RPM challenges, it's measured by in-game time. In real time it woul...
