Wube Software has made quite some changes around Factorio. The newest patch 0.15.32 will fix some of the very known issues caused by Antivirus programs. Mainly, having an antivirus issues causing the game to crash is sometimes very annoying.
This new release should patch up other things too and it’s quite big. Cleaning the bugs is what the developers aim for at first place.
The whole Factorio’s community is very excited because of these changes, and they’ll be able to run their factories without any kind of further issues. Just as a reminder, Factorio is still in Early Access so any further bugs might be encountered. Furthermore, the developers promise they will polish them out and make the Factorio run smoothly.
