omitting --port checks for other factorio processes and chooses an appropriate port

Post by Mylon »

If one server is already running, launching a second without specifying a different port causes it to immediately shut down without any good indication of why. It would be nice if Factorio would check if a port is being used by any other instance (or perhaps any program at all!) and automatically choose a unique one.
