cant launch modded satisfactory "SMM cant launch this install"

After trouble shooting i cannot seem to figure out the problem. My innitial assumption is that 'Structural Solutions' is conflicting with another mod but when it is disabled the game is still unable to launch through the mod manager. see the attached zip file for debug info

Long loading times

I am encountering very long load times (2-4 minutes) for a 3mb save, when my previous even 8mb saves loaded in like 10 seconds. I haven't had a chance to write my mod that pulls in more specific information, but instead made a python script that just parses the log file and finds big gaps between log entries. I quickly as possible started the game and loaded a save file, then exited, so it should only capture what's happening on load. I am avoiding binary searching to find the culprit as I have 104 mods and this may take longer 😅...
Solution:
I guess this is a kind of memory leak ... but it's a save file leak ... caused by me against myself :LUL:

Satisfactory Mod Manager

Hi, I can't open my SMM, even after reinstalling and restarting my PC, even with admin rights. I ‘double-click’ on the link but nothing happens.
Solution:
The Webview2 runtime on your system is broken somehow. You can properly clean it up using https://github.com/ShadowWhisperer/Remove-MS-Edge/raw/refs/heads/main/Remove-EdgeWeb.exe, then reinstall it using the Evergreen Bootstrapper from https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview2/?form=MA13LH#download. You may need to run the Bootstrapper as admin for it to succeed.

Tricks to allow MPSync network access?

Trying ot use MPSync to share a saved game and its crashing my Satisfactory build. Relevant SMM debug output attached. I allowed Public / Private network access in windows firewall settings for Satisfactory, SMM.exe, but this still persists. Any other ideas for why Satisfactory might not be able to hit this domain? I can at least connect to this domain on my browser so I think its just some sort of windows firewall setting
Solution:
If anyone finds this, with a similar issue, the workaround I used was to turn on my VPN and it all worked fine after. Never resolved the root issue though.

Covered Conveyor Belts, game crashes after loading a save.

The game crashes on version 3.x.x., on version 2.5.8 i can still play.
Solution:
I found the problem, I was using Conveyor Lift from version 2.x.x. I had three lifts. In patch 3.x.x. there are no Conveyor Lift at all. I deleted them and everything works. Problem solved. Thank you for your help and sorry for the problem. 😅

Mega Oil Pump Mod

Good Evening Everyone. I am currently using the Mega Oil Pump Mod. I'm not too sure if anyone else is having this issue or not. So I have the Mega Oil Extractor on a Normal Node. Currently pumping 2,730M3 per Minute. So if I then use the M2 pipes at 600M3 it would be 4.55 pipes. so i have the 5 pipes connected to the machine. What seems to be happening is it pulls so much so quick that the pipes don't have a chance to keep up. it fills to the 50M3 fill in milliseconds and then turns off. When that happens the pipes pull that 50M3 almost instantly. with this back and forth though the pipes only have 200-300M3 of oil at any given time. ...
Solution:
Also this oil extractor doesn’t know who is connected. It just fill up the storage then just send fluid in randomly (or at least sending fluids with manner of game logic) If you want full pipe, use...

Solar Tractor Ignoring Traffic Lights

Solar Tractors have started to ignore the traffic lights. They keep driving through the amber and red lights. They worked in my last playthrough and have only been doing this since I started this new playthrough. The only difference between my playthroughs is that I have added No Fuel for Road Vehicles mod.

The Great Audio Bug

Not really a crash crash, but the game is entirely unplayable unless you force quit it. Long story short, since so much was in #satisfactory, my main save just kind of crashed, and when I load back into it, the game is extremely laggy for like 2 frames (they display about 20 seconds apart) and then it just freezes and I only have sound until I force quit. I have tried, with help from @GrahamKracker, @Bababooie, @Muppet Burrito and a few others, basically everything short of reinstalling Windows itself, and the ONLY solution we have currently is using the -nosound launch option. That is the ONLY thing that allows the save to load. However, as I don't really want to play Silentfactory, we're trying to figure it out. Still getting stonewalled even after 4 hours, so I'm making this thread because I realistically should have to begin with. Just didn't expect it to be THIS extreme of a problem :KEK: If you want a list of things tried:...

Game crashes when loaded up after 5 mins or so

Game crashed like 3 times in a matter of minutes when loaded into my world halp pls
Solution:
It's a networking crash, and I don't see much on your modlist which could be related - might be a vanilla issue or corrupted install

Universal Machines Idling Themselves

@Andre Aquila <Aquila Industrial> I've finally gotten to the point where I am installing a great number of machines via blueprints, but now every time I'm loading up, I'm finding machines that are idling themselves. I cannot restart them unless I delete and reinstall that machine, then it is fine....
