Headless server no authentication check option

Hi,

There is an ingame feature for multiplayer that disable user authentication (they don't need to have a Factorio account), but it isn't there in the headless version (in Windows version at least).

It would be great to have it in the headless server via a extra argument.

That option can be defined via the server-settings.json in the data folder. Just change the line "verify_user_identity": true to "verify_user_identity": false .

Don't forget to set that .json via the starting parameter via --server-setting C:\Factorio\data\yourserver.json
