With the upgrade to 0.15, I changed the default save file location and how it is set in /etc/conf.d/factorio (to match with the factorio-headless-experimental package) Before: SAVE_FILE=/var/lib/factorio/.factorio/saves/factorio-service-save.zip After: SAVE_NAME=factorio-service-save This will put the save file in /var/lib/factorio/factorio-service-save.zip The old factorio-service-save.zip file will be automatically copied to the new location upon upgrading (unless it already exists for some reason...). If you haven't changed /etc/conf.d/factorio, you shouldn't need to do anything. If you have modified /etc/conf.d/factorio, you'll have to set the SAVE_NAME correctly (the install script should give you a sensible value based on your previous SAVE_FILE value). In all cases, the old 0.14 default save will stay in .factorio/saves/factorio-service-save.zip Please also note that the factorio service will automatically be stopped when doing the upgrade to make sure it's copying an up-to-date save file.

Done :) The main thing to know is that the daemon will load the save in /var/lib/factorio/.factorio/saves/factorio-service-save.zip It creates an empty save upon installation, but you can replace it with your own save file. Also you may configure some options in /etc/conf.d/factorio. I'd love some feedback! Also, I heavily inspired from https://github.com/Bisa/factorio-init/, and they have a save-refreshing mechanism, basically loading the most recent save upon daemon restart. Do you think it would be useful? I suppose it is intended to load the autosaves, if the daemon crashes?

Is getting systemd service units within the scope of the package? They would add great value to it.
