[0.14.22]Corrupted save file

Post by DotykPaPierza »

1st things 1st, sry for my English, i'm from Poland kappa.

Just a normal game, no mods, ~150h played, map to catch achivements on Steam. Unexpected crash while saving map (just after getting achivement "launch rocket with raw fish inside") with no error message, no log or any info "what happened". After re-launch Factorio says the save is corrupted. I tried to open it with winrar - looks like level.dat is broken.

No auto-saves - saving on my wooden PC takes ~3 minutes so i disabled them :G
I feel fucked by life...

Hi, the zip file is corrupted/incomplete, nothing I can do to recover it. However ... Factorio doesn't overwrite the original save until the map is fully saved. So for example, if I want to save MySave, it will save to MySave.tmp.zip and after the saving is done it will rename it to MySave.zip, that should ensure if the game crashes while saving, it won't overwrite good save with bad one. Isn't there somewhere older save of your map?

I don't have any other copies of this save :G
Any ideas what could happen to the save's zip? I hope it's not something with my HDD...
