Option changes

Post by LUDOSV »

This is probably a silly question, but I can't find any answer to it anywhere.
I would like to know whether it is possible to make permanent option changes.
I don't want to have music and I also change the WASD keys, but I have to reset them every time I start again, and even if I then load a previously saved game, I still have to redo all my option changes.
Please help!

Moved to Technical Help.

Option changes should be permanent, if they are not then try the following while Factorio is closed:
  • Go to %appdata%\Factorio (press Win+R to open the run dialog and enter that)
  • Delete the config folder

Thanks, I'll try it and give you some feedback.

[edit]
A few days later, I finally closed and reopened Factorio: Success!
Your method worked just fine, now I have it working with my favorite preferences.
Thank you!
