Factorio Forums

I am trying to make a Java application run Factorio with specific parameters( to generate map previews) and while doing so, print the game output to the console. However, I simply can't read Factorio's game output from within my application no matter what I do. If I run Factorio directly from cmd, it outputs what it would write to it's log file.

So basically, I want to read Factorio's game output with an application. And I am requesting help in doing so.

I would like to know what am I doing wrong here.
