factorio_on_DO

Simple python script for managing a VM on digitalocean.com for running a headless factorio server.

1. If there are more than 2 snapshots that match the naming scheme for factorio vm snapshots the oldest one gets deleted (If you have more than 5 Snapshots you have to pay for them)
2. The VM gets created based on the newest snapshot that matches the snapshot naming scheme
3. Standard name for the VM is Factorio, if you have already one VM with this name change vm_name inside the script!!
