I have a "Portable" copy of Factorio on my external SSD, for some on-the-go factory thinking. I also have two computers with two operational systems: Windows and Linux. I have downloaded both the Windows ZIP version and Linux version and unpacked them into the same folder. End result is that there are two executables in the /bin/x64 folder. I first ran the game on Windows, which generated the config.ini file in its defined location(Factorio root folder). Next, I tried to run it on Linux, however I get an error about the config path not being found.
Here's the relevant snippet from the config.ini file
Code: Select all
read-data=__PATH__executable__\..\..\data
write-data=__PATH__executable__\..\..
, whereas on Linux, this path is generated with normal slashes\
Code: Select all
/
