when i started playing after a few minutes the game froze, and then displayed
Opening package
C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\factorio\saves\_autosave2tmp.zip for writting failed
i assume this was the auto save feature, so then i tried to manualy save the game, to my suprise it also displayed the same message but with the name i chose
(Opening package
C:\users\username\appdata\roaming\factorio\saves\12345.tmp.zip for writting failed)
so has anyone had this issue and resolved it?, i really want to play the game but i dont want to start a new game every time i start the game D:
things i have tried:
new install of the game
changed installation folder to C:\ instead of D:\
deleted the factorio folder in appdata
by the way i have not used any mods.
please help.
EDIT:
just solved it thanks to this
https://wiki.factorio.com/Application_d ... _directory
and by moving my game install directory to my C:\ drive instead of my D:\ drive where i usually store my games
what i did was change the user data directory so default values where this:
[path]
read-data=__PATH__system-read-data__
write-data=__PATH__system-write-data__
this is what i set them to:
[path]
read-data=__PATH___executable__/../../data
write-data=.factorio
now i can play and save
hope this helps anyone with the same error!
