From what I've heard you can carry your saved game over to 1.0 but you won't get any of the story elements unless you start a new game.

Thanks. May as well wait. I'll probably try and find a video that explains some of the game without being just another boring optimisation video that means you don't have to figure out for yourself.

I found a really good one for factorio that just went into a lot of the basics and how stuff works but didn't start telling you how to min Max everything.

If you find one would you mind sharing here? I'll also be returning at some point once v1 is out and would watch something like that to catch up on any new things.

Would it be worthwhile getting the game now and having a play, then starting a new game once the full version is released?

If you're going to get it, then IMO just buy it, but personally I wouldn't start a game now since it's so close to release and IIRC they're moving some stuff around. Wait for full release before playing, it's not far away.

Cool, thanks. I'll probably pick it up in the next few days and have it ready then.

I really hope you can move save games over!
I'd dread starting again.

Yes you can but some resource nodes are moving, some recipes changing will break some existing factories. Plus none of the new story stuff will trigger using an existing save.

I’ve seen a few suggestions from others about using the save editor to copy your old factory in to a new save. Or dismantle everything and copy the storage boxes full of resources over. But it’s currently unknown how using the save editor will work - whether everything will be fine or whether it’ll break achievements. Or maybe even the story if, for example, some elements are triggered by having things in your inventory which could be skipped if at the start of the game you have access to end game items.
