Factorio Forums

On https://factorio.com/download , you write: "If you are running a server, you can use this link to always download the latest experimental version."

I just did that, and it downloaded 1.1.72. So it does not "always download the latest experimental version". There was the same problem when 1.1.72 was released - the link eventually did start working after some hours/days, but it should obviously work at release. I have a script to update for my headless server, and that script is kinda useless if I can't depend on the download link to work.

Works flawless for me.

I tried it for a few times and it seems like this is cache related (browser/server/idk). The first time after loading the page (whether https://factorio.com/download or the link in the report) sometimes downloads the 1.1.72, after that always the 1.1.73

It is working for me too now. But did not at release. Last release I tried downloading it from 2 different computers, and both gave the old version - it is not local cache.

What I want is for the link to work on release, not at some random time after.

Now it also works for me...
I will check again once a new update is released.
