Version 0.12.24: No such Node

[Toma]

Hey everyone,

starting up my steam or non steam version both gives me the No such Node error. I read in an older post that this might be due to outdated game versions, so I also tried the different "Beta" releases on Steam, but no dice. It worked a few days ago though, so anyone knows what might be the issue here?

One case I've seen such an error was with corrupted config-path.cfg
Can you check :
- config-path.cfg is not empty
- when you double-click on the link to config you can find in Factorio install folder, you end-up in a place like : %APPDATA%\Factorio\config ?

Based on expected write data path in log I think config-path.cfg is ok.
Node "version" that the error is referring to is "version" in info.json that each mod has to contain. It is possible that your mod folder ( C:/Users/<your_username>/AppData/Roaming/Factorio/mods ) contains old outdated mod or something that is not mod at all. Delete contents of mods folder and see if the game starts.
