Campaign data loss

Post by Myaskol »

Heya guys,

I am not sure if this is the right forum but..
I've been messing around with some mods which i didnt quite like that much so i deleted my entire factorio folder and downloaded a clean one.

I've been playing the campaign and lost all data on it. my question is, can you edit a file to unlock those levels? I've seen player-data.json has campaign info in it but when i edit it. it wont unlock the level. I was at map 3 but a full unlock would fix it. ll be playing map 3 anyway.

Hope you guys can help me out.

No clue if it'll be of any help, but these are the contents of my player-data.json:

Code: Select all

{
    "available-campaign-levels": {
        "beta": {
            "level-01": "easy",
            "level-02": "easy"
        },
        "demo": {
            "level-01": "hard",
            "level-02": "normal",
            "level-03": "normal"
        },
        "tight-spot": {
            "level-01": "hard"
        },
        "transport-belt-madness": {
            "level-01": "hard"
        }
    },
    "finished-campaigns": {
        "demo": "easy"
    },
    "console-history": [
        "game.forces.player.chart({lefttop = {x = -512, y = -512}, rightbottom = {x = 512, y = 512}})"
    ],
    "updater-username": "boogieman14",
    "updater-token": "<mine>"
}
I haven't completed the map yet where you need to put all those supplies into the car though, but perhaps you can figure it out from here.
I don't have OCD, I have CDO. It's the same, but with the letters in the correct order.

Thanks, i am going to try urs after editing the updater part OFC! I will edit this post in about 10 mins with the result.


EDIT: It works. i can go to level 2 but when i edit your file with:

Code: Select all

 "beta": {
            "level-01": "easy",
            "level-02": "easy",
            "level-03": "easy"
        },
it does NOT work, weird enough!

Just an aside, if you place mods into your mods folder you won't have to alter any of the original files. When you don't want to use the mods anymore, you can delete/turn them off.
