Can reproduce both with a windows client on a linux headless instance and with a linux client on a windows server.
The logs and the large blueprint book I used are attached for easier reproduction. Blueprints are from factorioprints.com

Does anyone have a link to speedrun with synchronised views?


I have A speedrun with synchronized views for you (not the current one): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1BIn-Qt6om8
Its from 0.16, AntiElitz made it for our best time back then. It was a lot of work, but maybe he will do it again for ...

Even more info:

I was suspicious and tried to profile what is happening.
Seems like my system is brutally memory bound (what a surprise in factorio :D), it seems most time is taken by rendering.

Totally me guessing stuff about code I don't know anything about:
I'd guess that that is the renderer ...

Some more information:

I got an 6600k 16GB of 2667MHz RAM and a GTX 1060. Driver is the Nvidia binary blob 430.40.
I tested the same under Windows 10 1809, Driver version 436.30. The same thing happens there.
I get the impression that my PC just can't keep up with the save and I'm understanding ...

Hi,

I have problems under Linux with FPS when there is a lot if stuff going on on screen. When I zoom out, FPS tanks in Multiplayer but UPS stays the same. In Singleplayer, both go down alongside as seen in the screenshot. When I zoom fully in, everything is fine. I find it confusing because
1) The ...

Hi,

the new landfill texture does not work correctly with existing landfill and Industrial Revolution.

If i disable all mods, the existing textures load correctly. Newly placed landwith with the mod enabled works correctly.
I don't know if this is a specific mod problem or a ...

I post this for forum user AntiElite as he currently has no access to the forum. Opinions (and all spelling mistakes :D) are his, not mine!

Firstly I have to say I'm shocked you did take the speedrunners into consideration, because that is really something you should not do when balancing the ...

What's the difference in overlays between the stream and recording? If it's the same, you can both stream and record from one instance of OBS, and quick looking at his streams and recordings I'm not seeing any differences.


For example, in the recording instance he doesn't record the music he ...

Thats amazing, thank you! Even better than I had wished for

Great, thanks!

Hi,

there was some kind of bug / undocumented change introduced to map gen or exchange strings from 17.40 to 17.41 with oil. With this map string

Currently, it looks like this (lower right):

Hi,

It would be neat being able to generate multiple previews without needing to setup/tear down factorio fully from the command line for every preview generated.
Examples how that feature could work:

./factorio --generate-map-preview path/to/store/pics/ --generate-map-preview-count N // For ...

Hi,

if you change the map width/height to limit the map dimensions, it doesn't change the comfiguration from "Default" to "Default [Modified]". This is contrary to the dimensions being a part of the mapstring and the dimension textboxes getting cleared when resetting to "Default" from "Default ...

Since the blueprint menu is gone, how will steinios toolbox be affected? Will mods be able to add custom items to the tool bar selection list?


"Mods will be able to add their own tools to the list, making it a nice place for players to access mod-created tools." Second to last sentence :D

Use a splitter with priority input if you want another behavior.


This is still a bug, as the behaviour isn't consistent as shown in the video. If the sideloaded items always had priority, weird but fine. But it isn't consistent across setups, most of the time the main belt has priority ...

I like that idea too. Getting "punished" for messing up is one thing, but that is just pure torture

Read the title and immediately thought about the Computerphile/Tom Scott video. Nice to see it linked in the FFF :)
Nice writeup, very interesting as always! The one thing I don't understand is what the Debug Info pictures mean. Is it OpenGL vs DirectX or 0.17 Main vs Rewrite? If the latter, a 30 ...

Redoing the tutorial definitely sounds like a good idea. As you talk about level switching, I think it would be really cool to just keep everything as is when changing levels, so the new player isn’t overwelmed with "oh, this is completely different than my thinking process, who did they do this and ...

Hi,

AntiElitz played a Sub Event and people tried to deconstruct the starter base a bit too fast, so 5000 bots where doing that at once and the Construction manager got up to 13ms update time (more than the actual base needed to run).
Here is a save when that happened: https://www.dropbox.com/s ...
