Walkman100/FactorioInstanceManager

Factorio Instance Manager is a Windows desktop application designed to manage multiple installations and configurations of the game Factorio. It provides a graphical interface for creating, deleting, and switching between game instances, while automatically detecting installations from both Steam and standalone sources. The system handles local configuration storage, UI theming, and dependency isolation to ensure stable operation on Windows environments.

Factorio Instance Manager is now available, providing a Windows Forms interface to manage Factorio game installations and instances. The application allows users to add and remove game installs and instances, create and delete instance configurations, and set a default instance for an install. It features a split-view layout with context menus for common actions like running the game, opening folders, and updating instance data. The UI supports theming via the WalkmanLib library, customizable window layouts (saved across sessions), and automatic update checks. It detects Steam and standalone Factorio installations, handles cross-platform path resolution for Windows and Linux, and stores all user settings in an XML configuration file.

The embedded Ookii.Dialogs library has been recompiled with the assembly name changed from 'Ookii.Dialogs' to 'FactorioInstanceManager-Ookii.Dialogs'. This modification allows the application to include a specific version of the dialog library without conflicting with other dependencies that might expect the standard 'Ookii.Dialogs.dll' name, ensuring the correct binary is loaded at runtime.

The application now includes configuration files that enforce .NET Framework 4.5.1, enable long path support on Windows, and declare compatibility with Windows versions from Vista through 10. It also sets the application to run with standard user privileges (no elevation) and establishes the main form as FactorioInstanceManager.
