awesome, thanks I wasn't finding it.
Now there is a post people can find on forums/google .

and yes, technically i could use this: https://wiki.factorio.com/Map_exchange_string_format
to decode it, and write a settings file.

...But it seems a bit silly to have a very nice map exchange format, and not support it on the headless server directly.

It would be wonderful if there was a way to generate a map (on the headless server), from a map exchange string. It would be even better if it could still generate the map preview.

Griefer group of 4 people...

Kuba_V777
Nachtlord
crankyrake
benni2605

They all logged in at once and started throwing grenades ( didn't matter, no friendly fire ), and picking up belts/assembly machines, etc...

Banned them all, and just reverted map back one save.

I've looked around, and I couldn't find any information.
One of Factorio's command like arguments is --slope-shade-property SHADEPROP
But I haven't found any additional info... What other properties can we use?

We have 4 servers, and pretty regularly ban griefers.

The ban list is almost double in size from last update.

Updated list of bans file, from M45 Factorio servers, April 17th 2018.
