minimum tick latency was added specifically for lan play, where latency is low but still has jitter.
try setting it to 1 or 2.

There are two things that can fix this.
1: Set minimum tick latency to 1 or 2 instead of 0 (this was added specifically for lan play)
2: /c game.speed <number>

0.25 is quarter speed, 0.5 is half, 0.75 is 3/4th, 1.0 is normal.
Lower the speed, and wait a minute... see if the problem goes away.

Would be wonderful to be able to save map images on headless. I understand screenshots won't work because it doesn't have the sprites. But currently, as far as I know map previews can only be generated when creating a new map. It would be lovely to have, because we could use them as a preview for ou...

I wasn't able to replicate this on my PC, so it is possible this is another "1/0 magic".

--Update, just replicated it.
How to replicate: pick up train at station, place back down... Repeat a few times and it happens.

Interesting, I guess we'll see if it happens again. I have never had problems before. I suppose it could just be fluke. It isn't overclocked or anything, its a rented server in a data-center. My guess is a random bit flip, or a bug from a automatic kernel live patch. Thanks for looking into it, I'll...

I ended up scripting max blueprint sizes, and a blueprinting throttle based on the number of items in the blueprint.

I think the server-filter area needs some kind of obvious highlight...
Maybe drop-down buttons turn red?
Way too many people ask if our servers are down, only to realize they have a filter applied.

Just a simple, but potentially helpful change. -- Carl

We reproduced it with boskid.
In my defense, I did actually ask... before resorting to such a horrible hack.

I'll look into it, it happened on a public multiplayer server.

If it is related to the scenario script, the related GitHub is available here:

Seems to crash when mining a belt, probably related to scenario script.

Same machine, same graphical problem under Windows 10.

You can see that the screen is oddly pixelated/scan-line-ish near the top and bottom.

That just blocks blueprints. I am just looking to ignore external blueprints.
*shrug*

If there isn't a way to do it, I might try a server with blueprint permissions off, or just limit blueprints to a much smaller number of items.

Blueprints are handy, but sometimes it can become "base in a book". Is there a way to block importing/auto-downloading of blueprints? That way, the utility of blueprints are there, without the base-in-a-book issue. I didn't see any config options to block downloading of blueprints or to bl...
