Deterministic save load in Factorio

One of the key parts of the save/load process in Factorio is that it must be deterministic. This means that for a given save file (when no external factors change) saving, exiting, and loading the save shouldn't change any observable behavior.

There are a few reasons and benefits for this strict requirement:

• Without it: You couldn't join a running multiplayer game (and by proxy save, exit, and resume one)
• Without it: the replay system wouldn't work if you ever saved, exited, and resumed playing.
• With it: we can easily test that saving and loading produces no observable change letting us know we implemented save/load correctly.
• With it: you won't see things change randomly as a result of "reloading" like you do in so many other games.

this has been rewritten yet again as most workarounds aren't required anymore since wine 3+

performance is indistinguishable from windows. there might be a very slight ~25ms sound latency which is easily compensated with +25 local offset

Let's say you're using Ubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail, released in April 2013) and it just went End-of-Life on you, because it's supported for only 6 months, and the deprecated packages are taken down after 12 months.

You'll probably figure this out the hard way. When you run sudo apt-get update, it will eventually report these errors:
