I discovered a minor bug with steam cloud savegame synchronisation.
when I create a save on my Linux machine with dots (.) in name, the save does not show on my other pc.

However, when I save a game with dots in Windows, it shows up on the Linux pc fine.
I restarted factorio and steam multiple times to make sure the steam cloud synchronisation triggers.

This is a known problem with steam and its handling of files. We simply tell steam to sync everything in the folder and it handles the rest. You may be able to contact them about getting it resolved.
