Hi Pioneers! Hello everybody, todays patch brings all the latest fixes from the Early Access version to Experimental, as well as adding a bunch of new fixes and an engine upgrade. Whenever we do engine upgrades, unexpected bugs tend to appear so please let us know over at our QA site if we accidentally broke something https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ We will look into it all ASAP! See you all again soon <3 NEW

• Upgraded to Unreal Engine 4.26.2

• Fixed a bug where vehicles would sometimes get displaced for Clients when far away from other players
• Fixed issue where vehicles would get stuck ghosting
• Fixed bug where the Load Vehicle Path UI would display inaccurate path lengths
• Fixed several minor issues related to vehicle automation

• Fixed issue where automated vehicles would sometimes stop moving when about to enter a station right after loading a game
• Fixed issue with automated vehicles sometimes continuing to drive despite being blocked

• Fixed issue with automated vehicles sometimes driving into other automated vehicles that are waiting in line
• A HUD message is now displayed every time an automated vehicle gets completely stuck (deadlock)
• Fixed a crash when exiting the game when using Vulkan as a renderer
• Fixed some issues where automated Trains could get completely stuck (deadlock)
• Fixed a bug when starting a game with the Skip Intro option and then loading a save would result in the intro also being skipped in that save unless exiting the game and relaunching it first
• Fixed re-rail holograms for Trains sometimes disappearing
• Fixed Trains and Train Stations not showing the correct location on the map and compass
• Potential fix for multiblock reservation issues for Train Signals

• A reminder for people who have been having issues with unexpected crashes on startup or weird behaviour with the game, in that case please try to verify your game files. You can do this on Steam by Right Clicking the game in your Library > Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files... And on Epic by clicking on the three dots (...) next to the title or at the right side, depending on your selected library view > Verify This may or may not redownload a large amount of files which might take a while depending on your internet connection or hard drive speeds so be wary of that. If you are using mods, they might need to be updated or uninstalled after updating so please keep this in mind too.

• If you are experiencing issues launching the game or loading a save and you have already verified your files, you might have some incompatibility with DX12 as the default renderer, you can try the following launch options to try to force DX11, DX12 or Vulkan to run respectively.
  • d3d11
  • DX11
  • d3d12
  • DX12
  • vulkan

• Dedicated Server Crash reports, Currently Crashes that happen on a Dedicated Server are automatically sent to us, this is enabled by default, we plan on including a toggle for this in GUI but for the moment, if you want to disable automatically sending crash logs you can do this:
  • Go to the Server Install folder
  • Open Engine.ini
  • Add the following:
  • [CrashReportClient]
  • bImplicitSend=False
  • Save changes and restart the Server

• Packet routing is incompatible with multihome, so we're automatically disabling the former when the latter is enabled
