You have a mod thats not comaptible with 0.13. Delete it/move to different directory and game should start.
(By default 0.13 will look in same place as 0.12.x for mods)

Just so you're aware, the map itself can be incompatible with a newer version.
If you're getting errors like:
Code: Select all
...factorio/temp/currently-playing/control.lua: module defines not found;
You may need to
convert the map to a scenario and then re-load the map in the new version of Factorio.
UPDATE:
Turns out that converting it to a scenario wasn't sufficient to fix my world.
Here's what I finally did that fixed the corruption:
* Convert map to scenario
* Remove the line
require "defines" from factorio/scenarios/<mapname>/control.lua
* Remove factorio-current.log (for some reason Factorio wasn't writing to the log file before crashing)
* Attempt to load custom scenario (to figure out what mod is causing the loading problem)
* Load world in Factorio v0.12.35 without the problematic mod
* Save world
* Load world in Factorio v0.13.1
