Re: Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

You want forward, compatibility ? Be reassured, quantum mechanics allow that. Just file a suggestion for it in the Ideas and suggestions forum. ...alright then. Hadn't thought reposting the idea elsewhere in the forum would be allowed after a moderator had moved the thread. I've posted it here: htt...

Forward compatibility for achievements data

Currently, rolling back the game to a previous version causes the achievements data file to be deleted and recreated, clearing all achievements. This happens even if the game is rolled back only one version, when there have apparently been no changes to achievements between the two versions. I propo...

Re: Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

That's what the suggestion board is for. :D I'd be fine with that response if this thread had actually been moved to "Ideas and Suggestions". The line between a bug report and a feature request has always been blurry. It'd be more than just removing the code that deletes it, because then ...

Re: Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

It's certainly an easy thing to fix, but I mean... sometimes people intend things that we don't think they should intend. Anyway, I'm not going to use the proposed solution, because this is a problem I only face about once a year, so there's no sense installing a parallel copy of Factorio now , and ...

Re: Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

If that's the case, then why was it moved to "Technical Help" rather than "Not a Bug"?

Re: Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

Heeey... why is this in "Technical Help"? I originally put it in "Bug Reports", because it's a complaint about how the game behaves, and not something that any non-dev can realistically help me with.

Rolling back a game update removes all achievements

I've had this happen to me several times: I've been playing on a public multiplayer server One day I load up Factorio and try to connect to the multiplayer server. Factorio reports that there's a version mismatch because my version is more recent. I switch Factorio to the beta branch that matches th...

Re: [1.1.8] [Modded] Desync when opening blueprint library while editing requester chest (reproducible)

I might've just had this happen to me. Not sure; I don't remember opening a requester chest but there were some requester chests around, so I might have. Summary of what happened: I brought a blueprint into a multiplayer game (that I had just made in single player with the same mods), and the game d...

Re: [1.1.37] Crash when upgrading power pole via bot

Looks like this was fixed in 1.1.38, possibly as a side effect of fixing 99641.

[1.1.37] Crash when upgrading power pole via bot

This might be the same problem as described in [1.1.34] Crash when moving electric pole , but I'm not certain. What did you do? Ordered bots to upgrade a "Substation Pylon" to a "Construction Pylon" in the Space Exploration mod. What happened? Crash to desktop with stack trace an...
