Request: Enable downloading clients using the user's token

Hey there,

I'm currently trying to set up a docker container the is able to use the Mapshot mod, but it requires the use of the full Factorio client in order to generate images. I've had a look online, searched the forum, and through the wiki, and there doesn't seem to be a nice solution to download the full client in an automated fashion.

I would strongly prefer not having people provide their passwords in order to use the container, it would be great if the token associated with a persons account could be used in place of their password.

Regards, M

It's not documented and might change without notice, but this works at the moment:

Code: Select all

https://factorio.com/get-download/1.1.74/alpha/linux64?username=<username>&token=<token>
