[1.1.90] --dump-data command line parameter - Permission denied

Post by seky16 »

I ran

Code: Select all

.\factorio.exe --dump-data
in an elevated powershell and it produced following error:

Code: Select all

Error when opening C:\temp\Factorio\script-output\mod-settings-dump.json for writing: Permission denied
What happened was it tried to create folders instead of files in script-output:

When I created the files manually it correctly wrote the dump inside them.

I can reproduce this by deleting the files inside script-output

Well, that's embarrassing. Thanks for the report. It's fixed for real this time for the next release.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
