## Quick Start
Create ```server-config.json``` and modify it to your liking.
Start the server in interactive mode for debugging. The game isn't saved.

## Start/Stopping
Assuming the server is named ```factorio```, to stop the server:
```
docker stop factorio
```
## Saves
To restart the server:
If there are no saves when the server starts, then a new map is generated and saved as ```save.zip```.
Otherwise, the most recent ZIP file in the saves folder is used. To load an old save ```touch save.zip``` and restart the server.
## Mods
Copy them into the mods folder.
```
docker start factorio
```
