Get rid of symlinks alltogether #59

Closed L0laapk3 closed 4 years ago

L0laapk3 commented 4 years ago

Currently, the script-output folders are symlinked to the correct output folders. While this works, it is less than ideal. That is why it would be advantagous to avoid symlinks alltogether.

One requirement for this is the possibility to tell factorio where to output its script-output to. This feature is requested here: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=81221

I've gotten rid of all the symlinks except for when a custom mod folder is specified, to link that to the most recent factoriomaps folder ( https://github.com/L0laapk3/FactorioMaps/blob/5ed3130/auto.py#L248 ). I don't really see a way out of that one for now so and its rarely used and also not a problem, so I'm calling this issue good.
