Factorio Forums

Hey,

I am trying to be as calm as possible as I have just woke up and Factorio is telling me my save is corrupt, this happened just after I chose to upload my saves to the Steam Cloud.

Please, anyone that has suggestions on how to fix this issue, please feel free to let me know, and if any game devs can help try to solve this please do your best to help me out.

Other than that, if this cant be fixed, I might never play this game ever again.

Thanks.

You can try playing with the autosaved game.
If you didn't change the settings regarding this, the last autosave is at most 2 minutes before your actual (now broken) save file.

I played a different world for a while after, so my autosaves are not for the world that is corrupt.

Can't fix this, the file is all zeroed out, I am sorry

The fun with factorio is to start over again and again

Well thanks for the help guys. Kinda absurd how Steam Cloud can just completely destroy my file. Guess ill try and regain my lost hours,
