Factorio RAM Use.

Post by Crushed »

Hayo.
We have atm, many entities on the map.
And when i join the Server , Catching up goes pretty slow....
In the game i get often freezes or lags ( NOT Graphical lags ) ((Got a GTX 1070 ASUS STRIX))
And Factorio Uses 1-2 GB ram..... I noticed the program does NOT Take more ram... but i would guess it would need that....
so...why doesnt it just take more then 2gb? .... My friend. which im playing with does not even have a problem with that on the same server...... :(

Factorio requires 3 things: RAM, VRAM and CPU.

Your RAM is good.
Your VRAM is good.
Your CPU is too slow.

To help your CPU, try this command:

Code: Select all

/c game.speed = 0.8
