Are you using some third-party script to run factorio? Factorio itself shouldn't require screen, try running factorio --start-server directly and see how it works.

Have you ensured that screen is installed?

Since it seems to have broken on update from 0.12.6 to .7 I guess the screen thing might just be misleading. Output from running factorio directly would be useful.
