Server at 15.35, steam at 15.34?

Post by Theramist »

Hi all,
Boring first post I know, I had high hopes of sharing some exciting clever in game creation but unfortunately i'm having technical issues!
I can't get my I-craft multiplayer server to show in the multiplayer browse screen. It was fine when I first ran it but now it is not working. I know why, the server has auto updated to 15.35 which is the current version as I understand it, but steam is stuck at 15.34 and anything I try doesn't seem to update it, can anyone offer some advice?
I've tried to force an update by checking integrity of files in steam, various restarts, but no joy.

If a solution isn't forthcoming then I thought I could try a full reinstall but only if someone can tell me how to backup my savegames or if they will survive a reinstall?

Thanks in advance!

0.15.35 is still an experimental version, you need to enable it on Steam by right-clicking Factorio, then go to Properties --> Betas tab --> choose '0.15.35' or '0.15.x' from there.

Savegames are not affected when installing/uninstalling Factorio, they are stored separately in %appdata%\Factorio.

Perfect, thank you!
Of course it was something simple, doesn't take much to stump me...
