I like this train stop limit idea, because... You can somewhat relieve the issue using the circuit network to enable and disable the train stops, but it is only a half-measure. For instance you can still end up with 10 trains rushing to a single small iron ore pickup, which can cause the trains to q...

It turns out it was the Steam Powered Assembling Machines that caused the desyncs. No idea why.

"Serpent" is mentioned in this blog post in relation to Lua data serialization. What is it?

What do you have around position 1000, 2000? There are a lot of desynced inserters there that think they are dropping stuff in different locations on client and server. Try decunstruting stuff in that area and see if it will stop desyncing. Also fluid boxes are desynced somewhere - might be related...

From what you are describing I'd guess one of mods you are using is not fully save/load safe so it breaks when game is saved and sent to clients for loading. Absolutely. I tried joining the server twice today, and was twice disconnected. T...

This is a long shot but I'm gonna ask it anyway. I'm running a 0.17.79 headless server on linux. The server is run from Docker factoriotools/factorio and is heavily modded (we're talking 63 mods with PyCoal Touched by an Angel ). Whenever my server experiences long periods with no players, any playe...

I would be a lot happier with the game if the logistics bots were removed. Maybe someone will make a mod of it?

I found a dumb workaround: use single player to create the save file, then tell the headless server to use that save.

TL;DR How do I make recipes expensive on my headless server? Cheers. In map-gen-settings.json of 0.15.28, there are three fields for difficulty: "difficulty_settings": { "recipe_difficulty": 1, "technology_difficulty": 1, "technology_price_multiplier": 1 } I m...
