[0.9.8] Auto-updater fails on changelog.txt.

Post by DaveKap »

Tried to update Factorio in the usual way, by using the in-game auto-updater. Unfortunately it failed with the message "X:/Factorio\data/scenario_pack/changelog.txt has unexpected content"

Unsure if those directory /s are correct or why the changelog.txt would throw it for a loop, but it does!

Got the same. Am downloading the full installer now, which for some reason is very slow (throttled to around 100 KB/sec).

Ufff .. that will probably be my fault, sorry for that. We used a different way of generating the scenario pack yesterday and obviously it was wrong. I'll fix this in a moment.
I have no idea what I'm talking about.

Do I needs to clear something from cache somewhere?

What exactly is not working? The problem is with changelog.txt?
Please try to find if there is a partially downloaded scenario pack (the path is mentioned in the error message) and delete the whole directory. If this doesn't help, you can always manually download the scenario pack from the website.
