On starting he game, I got a message asking me to update. After finishing the download and restarting, Factorio crashed. (Then it restarted again and reported that the update was successful. Is there a way to verify the game integrity? Should I re-download and re-install the game?) 0.003 2016-08-30 ...

I *think* I now know what the deal is about. The greenhouse has the same item (saplings) as both the input and the output; this seems to confuse the game a bit. I need to remove the saplings and re-add them - the greenhouse can't re-use the product. But the game refused to re-add the saplings, becau...

I have built a greenhouse. Next to it is an assembling machine which converts wood to saplings. When I supply saplings and water to the greenhouse, it generates weird "grow trees" items which fill up the output and causes the greenhouse to halt production. When I remove the items from the ...

It does, but the information doesn't seem to be accurate. In the open game dialog it says "Mods: base 0.13.15", but when I try to replay it, it refuses, claiming that it was created in version 0.13.11. (I have initially started the game in 0.13.11, then upgraded, played for a while, then r...

Something like 0.13.12, I believe.

[edit]
I was almost right. It was 0.13.11; you can find out by trying to replay the save. (If the version under which the save was created, and the current version do not exactly match, Factorio will complain and display the two versions.)

I have entered my user name and password in the game to sign up for updates. This automatically filled the user name in "Options->Other->Factorio username"; when I started a new game, my user name (really, e-mail address) became displayed next to my position on the game map (which is compl...

In that case, I believe I am missing something. I'll start the scenario again ... Yes. You need to press E to display your inventory. (It's just the toolbar that is empty.)

Apologies - consider the bug resolved.

After update, "Tight spot" no longer crashes on startup, but "Transport belt madness" STILL starts with an empty inventory.

After enabling experimental updates, "Transport belt madness" no longer fails to load but still starts with an empty inventory, and "Tight spot" still crashes. Mod versions: Main mod 0.11.8, Scenario pack 0.11.3. 3769.716141 Info Logger.cpp:148: 2014:12:23 08:02:26; Factorio 0.11...

I have now installed Factorio on a new computer. (Note: I didn't enable experimental updates, and the game is located at d:\Program Files\Factorio\ rather than c:\Program Files\Factorio\ - I have reserved the C: drive for system and system applications.) Neither "Tight spot", nor "Tra...

At this topic , you posted: There was quite a lot of confusion with instalation of scenario pack from the website, so we are now trying how it will work out to only provide it through the updater. There is a bug, however with a stable version marking on for the updater which causes it to not downloa...

For some reason, downloading the same version from stable releases - https://www.factorio.com/download/stable - [does work].

Correction: it doesn't work. You can only download the demo version 0.11.8 from the stable releases!

I have attempted to download the most recent version of Factorio from https://www.factorio.com/download/experimental , but I didn't get the game - instead, I got some kind of an error in the form of an XML file: <Error><Code>NoSuchKey</Code><Message>The specified key does not exist.</Message><Key>Se...

So I tried deleting the scenario pack directory once again, and tried to have the game's automatic updates to re-install it. Nope, still doesn't work. I wonder about the error in the "tight spot" scenario: "Couldn't read from input file. File could be corrupted." The log doesn't ...

Now I tried completely uninstalling the game, manually deleting all leftover files except the game saves, and reinstalling it from files from your website. The instructions on your website say: "Scenario pack is distributed as a mod. If you are using the Factorio auto updater then it should be ...

I tried removing the mods.json file; the game re-created it with an extra entry: { "mods": [ { "name": "base", "enabled": "true" }, { "name": "base", "enabled": "true" }, { "name": "scenario-pack...

Thinking about it: I have extracted the scenario pack to "c:\Users\Honza\AppData\Roaming\Factorio\mods\". Perhaps the updater was expecting it at "c:\Program Files (x86)\Factorio\data\"?

Now I tried to start "Tight spot" which used to work, but it fails to load with an error: "Couldn't read from input file. File could be corrupted." What gives? 959660.710521 Info Logger.cpp:147: 2014:12:05 23:20:13; Factorio 0.11.5 (Build 12720, win32) 959661.590638 Info ModManag...

In 0.11.5 the game no longer crashes, but it still starts with an empty inventory, making the mission unplayable.
