I have a power shell script that backup the game and then starts factrio like this;

echo "Run"
cd "$FactorioDir\bin\x64"
.\Factorio.exe

The game comes up and works find but if I close the Powershell box that started it, factorio crashes. Nothing added to the log even when I add the -v option to factorio.

Not the biggest of problems but I would like to free up the memory used by powerhsell and close the box.

I tried this with CMD as well and same thing happens.

It runs fine from the Desktop Icon so it can't require a cmd box.

Any ideas what's going wrong?

To launch it detached from the powershell, you have to type

Code: Select all

& .\Factorio.exe

For the normal windows command line, the syntax is likely a bit different.

I tried that. Same thing. I crashes (or at least exits without saving) when I close the starting powershell instance. I've also tried

Start .\Factorio.exe

and then I tried via cmd and you all the following. It's like it's sending a bunch of stuff to standard out and dies if it gets an error while writing to it???

Code: Select all
