[dusty sun]

bro look into nginx proxy manager

its the best

[obsidian mist]

This pfsense router already has squid installed on it. The other network person in the house tried to set it up, but she got bored halfway through.

[dusty sun]

yea that sums up my experience with pfsense

[obsidian mist]

I already learned docker compose for this and my media server, nginx seemed like Yet Another giant config file nightmare.

[dusty sun]

the specific docker image for nginx-proxy-manager is really streamlined. Takes away all of those problems.

hence my enthusiasm

[fading quarry]

Nginx Proxy Manager has very little configuration, træfik on the other hand means you need to configure everything manually.

[obsidian mist]

:smallbrain: getting a homelab to learn valuable network administration skills
:hugebrain: getting a homelab to make pretty lights that blink at you when you give it treats

[dusty sun]

Call me a smooth brain

cuz I do both

[quick mist]

or just a properly-sized brain

[obsidian mist]

i'm sleep brain, g'night folks. thanks again.

[south nimbus]

Hey guys, i have a question. Yesterday the hotfix dropped which yall discussed in length allready according to the roundabout 50 scrolls upwards i just did. Well i am slightly less inapt then an ant when it comes to servers but i somehow managed to update my own little linux server an the satisfactory server running on there. Yet my game still says, the game versions are not matching. Did i do something wrong or is the linux server version of satisfactory not updated yet?
tl;dr am i stupid or is the satisfactory server version for linux still at 365306?

[quick mist]

Current version is 366202. For some reason, SteamCMD seems to have a hard time picking up the update. What you can do is delete the current install and re-run the install for force it to get the current version. Your game save and server state and config files are kept in a different location so they won't be lost if you do this.

[south nimbus]

ok thanks, i will try that 🙂

[frosty gale]

Having another server issue, when I disconnect, it closes the server for some reason. Anyone know why?

[quick mist]

are you running the server on the same physical machine that you're playing the game on?

[silver cedar]

i saw game update yesterday, is server need to update too?

[quick mist]

yes

[silver cedar]

emmm, how to update server?

[quick mist]

That depends on how it was installed.

[frosty gale]

Yes I am, I was able to add 2 "servers" one as an admin and one as a client, I usually play on the admin one and when I leave its crashing or closing the whole server. I'm gonna try joining as the client to see if that changes anything

[unreal crystal]

it doesn't; you need to run it on a different host

[quick mist]

There's a known issue where if you are hosting and playing on the same machine, you'll see the behavior you're describing. CSS is AFAIK aware of it and working on a fix.

[steel sail]

I have the same issue, it's very strange

[unreal crystal]

it listens to all traffic on 7777; so a quit command is a quit command.

just spin up WSL + docker and magic it away into a diff "host" and enjoy; no 2nd pc required for a 2nd host.

[frosty gale]

I have no clue what any of that means LMAO

[steel sail]

yeah but it does it even with only one server

[unreal crystal]

because it just listens to localhost:7777 so you need to isolate erry server/client. can't multibox anything til its fixed.

[steel sail]

I don't see why leaving the game would send a quit command to anything

[spiral lion]

oh yeah wsl is thing I forgot about that one when I use linux debian. Thx for making me realize.

[steel sail]

didn't see this answer, thx

[silver cedar]

i use linux server with steamcmd, i just google and it said: redo the install command, is it going to override my server files? and what about my save file?

[slim salmon]

your save files are in a different location (~/.config/Epic)

[steel sail]

you should probably back them up anyway, better safe than sorry

[silver cedar]

i mean my server save file

[quick mist]

yep, your server save is kept separate from the actual server itself

[topaz scarab]

think he means the crap in FactoryGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer, which are in the game directory

[slim salmon]

me too. with ~ I refer to to home dir of the user running the server process. 🙂

[desert plover]

Sad that's .config because sftp client thin it's a hidden folder on linux so people have to config sftp client to show it

[topaz scarab]

skill issue, show hidden files/folders lmao

[silver cedar]

"yep"? you mean it will be overrided?

[desert plover]

Yeah but lot of people doesn't know how to do it so it's sad for Hosters

[quick mist]

To be as clear as I can possibly be:

• your server save and state files are stored in ~/.config/
• Your server installation has almost certainly been installed elsewhere
• Upgrading or even deleting and reinstalling the server will not affect your save and state files

[topaz scarab]

depot info says it doesn't write to the FactoryGame/Saved dir anyway, so you're good

[silver cedar]

thats very clear, thanks

[topaz scarab]

literally wasn't his question, or am i crazy

either way,

[smoky ibex]

hey guys, since yesterday's update i can't chop down tree anymore with my chainsaw (yeah i got fuel), any idea ?

[misty steppe]

try to open your iptable port for 7777

[haughty parcel]

Can I change the time the server auto restarts? It restart every 24h which is fine but now it does so at midnight and I am still playing around that time which is annoying. Can I change it to 3am? (Dedicated server on Windows)

[heavy heart]

Uh hi do you guys use the unraid dedicated docker container at all by chance here?

[deep turret]

it's temporary to prevent you from crashing from it #patch-notes

[smoky ibex]

thanks for the answer

[tall orchid]

Can dedicated servers run mods?

I am new to hosting on satisfactorio

[sturdy gust]

Yes

If the mods support 1.0 🙂

[tall orchid]

Does it work like in HoI4 that you need the same checksum?

as a client do you require the same files

[sturdy gust]

https://docs.ficsit.app/satisfactory-modding/latest/ForUsers/DedicatedServerSetup.html

[tall orchid]

Thanks, I was googling and all I got was some reddit posts that contradicted

I was a a a a bit frustrated as whether or not

[tall orchid]

Also, thank you for all you do, you're either making a ton of money or you're a very dedicated person to make this so much easier

[sturdy gust]

Haha, certainly not making much from doing this 🙂 Just happy to help!

[formal parcel]

I just started to pull your container ❤️
Your effort is much appreciated

[tawny remnant]

What are benfits or negatives for setting network Quality to ultra? Does it increase CPU usage of server?

Have been using medium and haven't noticed any lag

[sturdy gust]

It improves the maximum rate for network traffic I believe. If you're fine on medium, then leave it as is 🙂

[eager walrus]

I can't find my server with my public IP address. All my ports should be open ( 7777 TCP/UDP). I'm on windows and steam dedicated server app

[fresh grove]

Anyone got any ideas why my friend cannot join the dedicted server I've created. Windows steamcmd server, added ports TCP/UDP 7777,15000,15777 to port forwarding and opened up inbound firewall rules now as well on those ports. Can confirm I can connect to dedicated server as its running on my machine through local address and port, I cannot connect however through public facing ip address. My friend initally got the server to come up in server manager but was getting an API error on the screen, after deleting and trying again, he now just get Server Name Pending.
Any further thoughts on troubleshooting? He can ping my public ip.

[brittle spindle]

guys version mismatch detected between game and server.
game version: 366202
server version: 365306

how to fix?

[fresh grove]

Update server

[main thunder]

^

[main thunder]

Can you check if you can reach the 7777 port?

The same for @eager walrus

[brittle spindle]

how do u do that (its my friend hosting so im asking for him)

hes just running the dedicated server off his pc

[slim salmon]

the same way as he installed it. (steam GUI, docker, cmd, your friend will know :> )
sometimes you have to force the update via a reinstall. rename the server-game directory and trigger the installation again.

[brittle spindle]

ok thank u

[fresh grove]

Yes I get the generic httpserver.route_hnadler_not_found message @main thunder

[main thunder]

If you use an online Port Checker, then have it check the 7777 port. Does it tell you it's closed or open?

[molten lark]

where can i Disable pausing the game when no players are connected? got an gportal server

[deep turret]

it's only worse if you do not have good network
its limited to 300kBps even at ultra setting iirc which make it 2.5Mbps equivalent
i.e it will work fine on any kind of good network
but will be bad if your network can't take it

[main thunder]

I believe you can inside of satisfactory.

[fresh grove]

@main thunder The port checker is stating the port is closed interestingly

[deep turret]

tcp ?

[main thunder]

Check the port forwarding on your router. Make sure you've set both UDP and TCP.

[deep turret]

and firewall *

[main thunder]

You only need the 7777 port, so you should be able to close the others.

[fresh grove]

ok Thanks Monkey you made me rethink an option i was using the TCP/UDP option in my router so I split it out to seperate TCP and UDP port settings, working now

Thank you for your time

[main thunder]

Cool! Have fun! :)

Does anyone know where I can find documentation on the console commands? :)

[marble owl]

is it possible to make the server capacity up to 8 people atleast?

[main thunder]

You can, how are you hosting your server?

[thick tusk]

Any network experts that may have some ideas to help me fix the API issue?

[marble owl]

im using my vps to reverse proxy and use tunnlto so my friends can join since im behind cgnat and it wont login to the api

[thick tusk]

Short...ipv6. all ports open. Tests from outside can see all communication open, using IP gives server name and ping alongside API connection issues. (Not authenticated)

[thick tusk]

Does that add much ping?

[main thunder]

https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server/wiki/Increase-Max-Players

[marble owl]

depends on how fast your vps mine is on 100mbps only and it has 2 discord bots running and its on 100 ms idk why

i might upgrade to a 200mbps

[thick tusk]

I'm on a 1g fiber. I'm also behind a CGnat which is why I tried using IPv6 which is not on the CGnat

[marble owl]

thanks

[marble owl]

sadly we dont have ipv6 yet i think

[thick tusk]

I would honestly prefer to use the method you're using now but I don't really know how to set it up would you be willing to help me figure that out?

[marble owl]

yes i can make a video for you all

[thick tusk]

That would be awesome thank you If I could see that I might be able to get this damn thing up and running

[marble owl]

but your friends need to install tunnlto too and you have to make a wireguard vpn config for them

[thick tusk]

Thankfully my router has wire guard built in so I shouldn't be too hard to set up some guidance

[midnight ledge]

shouldn't dedicated servers still be processing things even with no one logged in?

[main thunder]

As in, it's pausing the game for you?

[marble owl]

idk if thats a hassle or not

[main thunder]

That's a setting you can enable/disable in the admin panel.

[midnight ledge]

i'm not sure if it is or not, asking pretty much

[main thunder]

#dedicated-servers message

[main thunder]

The server shouldn't stop working, that means it has crashed. If it's still running but the game isn't progressing (visible by the playtime not increasing), this means there's nobody online and the game has paused.

[midnight ledge]

yeah i think it was pausing

[2024.09.13-10.55.53:613][395]LogServer: Error: FMultiBindDatagramSocket failed to read data from underlying socket Unreal: SE_ECONNRESET

normal on dc?

[marble owl]

ok then give me few minutes ill make a video real quick

ill beback

[midnight ledge]

it seems to crash when I dc

because if i reload the game i can't connect after I dc with 127.0.0.1 ip

even though dedicated server console is running

[ornate grotto]

There's been discussion recently on Windows servers crashing when the Admin disconnects. I think they are still trying to get to the bottom of it, but with so many messages, it's been hard to keep up

Only happens when Client and Server are on same PC

(which is not recommended anyway)

[midnight ledge]

that is the only way i can do it

[ornate grotto]

It's a Dedicated Server, it's designed to run on separate hardware

[midnight ledge]

i've ran plenty of games with dedicated servers on the same PC and it works fine

[quiet elbow]

I join the discord becurse of this.
the server works but it stop lissening to port 7777 and it dosent work on other dedicated servers and dosent need to be admin who discconects.

[midnight ledge]

Minecraft & Ark are 2 common ones and i have 64gb ram

Ark is built on the same engine and doesn't do this so it clearly is a knowledge/programming problem

and it loads stupid amounts of data with mods 😄

[ornate grotto]

I didn't say it wasn't a coding issue, I just said that running both on the same HW seemed to be a symptom

[midnight ledge]

yeah, that is possible

[ornate grotto]

and not recommended anyway

I didn't say you couldn't, just not recommended

[midnight ledge]

i'll just do it as good practice to restart the server when I DC.

sucks, but if it works around it. np

[thick tusk]

Alternatively I'm still open for reasons why the API error could still be popping up

I mean if I could figure that out it would be easier for people cuz then all they have to do is type the IPs in

[sturdy gust]

Yes, it's a known issue with running a dedicated server on the same system you're playing

[sturdy gust]

Port issue, ultimately

It means your 7777/tcp port is blocked

[thick tusk]

Qsadly. They are open. Tested and confirmed from the outside multiple times. It makes no sense

[midnight ledge]

believe it or not, i am:
Stream + Camera + Dedicated Server + Client + Twich open + Youtube open and I am finally hitting frame problems at the end of Tier 8.... so... pretty amazing overall with how much is going on.

[sturdy gust]

Send your launch command + environment information

[thick tusk]

I could share the IP with you if you wanted to test it yourself and you can see the same thing everybody else has I'm just at a loss I can't even fath them why that might be happening

Sure thing give me a few minutes I'll have to head upstairs and put the computer up again

I'll send it in the DM in a couple minutes here I just got to go collect it all again

[stiff veldt]

unable to recolor any power poles?

It does not save on the item

Think its a buggg

[dusky raft]

ive got a weird one, dedicated server on a box in my local network, everything fine and dandy yesterday, then the #366202 updated rolled out, now my (again; local network) ping fluctuates between 20 and 300, making the game a lot less fun to play, according to my servers (hardware) own stats, it's not even breaking a sweat, 4% cpu usages, around 4gb ram (of the 128gb available), networking usages is sub 2mb on a gigabit connection... no indication why the ping is so high most of the time, (it's in the low 20s when im standing idling, looking at the server manager screen) as soon as i start moving, sliding, jumping around, it'll jump up to 150/200+... pre the last update everything was fine and i had a < 10 ping (as it should be on a local network), looking at it right now, it's 39, 27, 44, 16, 14, going back the the game, do one slide and jump, instant 141+ - can't even climb the ladder of a storage container, it instantly teleports me back down 😂

[proud pendant]

i require assistance to do with saisfactory dedicated server

proxmox ve hypervisor running server 2016 (windows) using steam cmd anao login ports 7777 15000 15777 are all fowarded via windows firewall

error is failed tls handshake cert is too new

[ornate grotto]

You only need 7777 UDP and TCP now since the 1.0 release

[proud pendant]

network is via linux bond and bridge

gilgamoth apperciate that but i am trouble shooting with firewall off.

just listing them for completeness sake

[ornate grotto]

Make sure that your server is up to date, they have released a patch to fix that very issue

[proud pendant]

i have ran the update for the correct ap ID

it has not resolved my issue

ill grab the exact script im running

[ornate grotto]

There was a pinned message for the manual work around

YOu can try that

[proud pendant]

there are a few pins is it in this channel?

[ornate grotto]

#dedicated-servers message

[proud pendant]

while im not using docker i am running on a linux hypervisor this may resolve my issue ill fire my vm backup and test it

i assume i add this to the batch file ?

-ini:Engine:[HTTPServer.Listeners]:DefaultBindAddress=any

and ill change my firewall to 7777 only thank you

[ornate grotto]

It's not a docker issue, it's a linux issue

[proud pendant]

odd that it appears inside a windows VM

[deep turret]

reported ping is a none issue if your gameplay is fine

currently the api ping is high for some reasons does not mean the server is not working

[hasty girder]

Somebody has an Idea to fix? I forwarded Port 7777 for my Server (Windows PC, Steam GUI) (Both Router and Windows Firewall udp+tcp)

First one is over LAN IP
2nd over WAN ipv4
and 3rd is WAN ipv6

[ornate grotto]

Sorry I missed that it was windows

[proud pendant]

thats fine, its running inside proxmox VE

that is running a linux bridge.

[ornate grotto]

Most firewalls won't allow you to use your external IP internally, so "working as should"

[proud pendant]

so even tho it is infact windows server 2016 the translation may be killing it

[deep turret]

Also cpu load must be reported per physic thread
otherwise 100% use on a 128 thread cpu would only show as 0.8% load even though it's capping full thread

[hasty girder]

ok

[proud pendant]

this is a NAT issue if they dare to add a loop back it will work but is pointless work just use internal ip

[ornate grotto]

Also make sure that your VM is running with CPU Type as Host, as that's a known ProxMox issue

[dusky raft]

literally being teleported back down stairs and rubberbanding like crazy, this wasnt an issue before the latest update

so yes, it deffo impacts gameplay

[proud pendant]

thats best pratice for windows dw i got that sorted

[deep turret]

then talk about that

[hasty girder]

Also i still have this one, wasnt this fixed yesterday?

[proud pendant]

@tight girder thanks for your help 2016 is taking ages to update so hopfully i get to look at it soon hahah

[ornate grotto]

If you still have an issue, I'd suggest posting in https://questions.satisfactorygame.com, I don't think the Dev's track issues here as there are too many messages to watch

[steel sail]

it still happens but to my experience, you just have to refresh a couple of times to make it work

[deep turret]

this is likely simply your router lacking hairpining, ultimately external connection must be tested from external connection

[proud pendant]

or if u have an enterprise router add a loopback

just hotspot your pc with your phone and test

(assuming your PC isnt running the server)

[hasty girder]

I just tried over Hotspot but now they are all offline, even though i opened the port

[proud pendant]

@hasty girder is the server on your PC or another PC

[hasty girder]

another PC

[deep turret]

you should (re)check forwarding and firewall rules then

[proud pendant]

are you testing with firewall disabled on the pc

[hasty girder]

how do i do this? Never needed that for Minecraft

[proud pendant]

(ONLY FOR TESTING) go into firewall and advanced settings

[deep turret]

their server firewall is likely fine as ipv6 connected successfully

[proud pendant]

mmm

real

[dusky raft]

sorry what?

[proud pendant]

may be that bro is on cgnat

[dusky raft]

the update broke something

it was fine before it

[ornate grotto]

report it on the questions site then

[deep turret]

I mean last line with hint against the 7 other line talking about reported ping
I just pointed that you must primarily talk about the actual experienced problem so it gives more credit to your questions and also more context for help and troubleshooting

[dusky raft]

im trying to be thorough with background information because no one ever is in tech support, and then it gets thrown back into my face? wow

just wow

well, i tried

[proud pendant]

@ornate grotto the work around did not work same error certifcate verify result certificate is not yet vaild :?

[hasty girder]

ok I disabled it, but still all offline

[proud pendant]

@hasty girder so it does work internally yes?

[deep turret]

1. I didn't say the information you give was an issue whatsoever
2. I'm not a coffee stains employee and I'm just giving my cents
3. I'm just pointing that, so other people and yourself can better see everyone else perspective (not having details on your actual experience), and so help better communicate your problems

[hasty girder]

No unfortunately, LAN still works, Ipv6 gives API error (I used all my Handcrafting Power on the refersh button) and, ipv4 still offline

[proud pendant]

on this same connection minecraft works yes?

(need to see if your on cgnat otherwise this is pointless)

[hasty girder]

atleast i now know its the router

[proud pendant]

correct what kind of router is it?

its not somthing with pre and post routing is it, nothing enterprise etc just bog standrad?

[hasty girder]

xiaomi-5g-cpe-pro-ax5400

[deep turret]

if you want ipv6 outside connection
you likely have to open the port for it in router's firewall
which is different than ipv4 forwarding rules

double check that your forwarding rules go to your server machine and are opening both UDP and TCP on same port

everything must be same port

[proud pendant]

does it ask for the incoming port>

[deep turret]

So 192.168.0.50 is your server machine ?

[proud pendant]

please edit the rule and attach screenshots

[hasty girder]

i cant

[proud pendant]

?

[hasty girder]

I can create or delete old rules

[proud pendant]

can you display in english >

sorry cant read XD

[deep turret]

it's portrange

[hasty girder]

Thank you for your time but when i think about it its not so urgent. I can just stay by the status Quo and just let my 2nd Steam Account host with min Graphics

[swift sigil]

question. I made a clean instalation of a dedicated server. I log in for the first time after world generation and my character logs in with a bunch of stuff in his inventory and a "welcome back pioneer" message.
I assume the inventory is from when I was messing around on earlier build of the server on this machine when I was figuring out if everything worked as intended.

How do I make sure all players joining have a clean slate to start with?

[hasty girder]

Wait i found something

Could this be it

Its Port Filtering

[white hawk]

this is port filter

[steel osprey]

Not really related to the Satisfactory dedicated Server

[hasty girder]

you cant really

[hasty girder]

ok

[steel osprey]

Google can help you to underatand your Fritzbox

[hasty girder]

Server start at Tier 1 for now, so you get some start equipment

[swift sigil]

okay not a bug but a feature. thank you for clarifying

[deep turret]

isn't it still tier 2

[hasty girder]

but they might change it

[deep turret]

the bug is it's tier2

[hasty girder]

my Server started at Tier 1

[swift sigil]

mine started at 1

[hasty girder]

What you could do is just host over the client from Tier 0

and then just upload the save

[swift sigil]

ooh interesting

[hasty girder]

ah i figured that i am on cgnat. I changed from Cable to 5G Internet that could be the issue

[proud pendant]

THAT is THE ISSUE

sorry man

[hasty girder]

yeah i read, unfixable without lots of hustle

[hasty girder]

np thanks for the help

[white hawk]

guys... can i ask please: mz server shows players 2 from 4 how i can change it to atleast 8 players?

[shy bane]

I have download the dedicated-server app from steam and I am unable to create the server in satisfactory 1.0 and connect to it, then I will exit out of satisfactory and then will run satisfactory load back in the server game I created, but it know offline???

[steel osprey]

a little discord search would give you the solution 😉

-ini:Game:[/Script/Engine.GameSession]:MaxPlayers=8

[white hawk]

Thank You

[shy bane]

in the command window that the dedicated server show this ":[2024.09.13-11.44.44:218][791]LogServer: Error: FMultiBindDatagramSocket failed to read data from underlying socket Unreal: SE_ECONNRESET" other stuff

Is there some know issue with the 1.0 that is causing the created server to be online and then next time loading satisfactory the manager server view is showing

[dapper horizon]

It's known issue https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/66e08561772a987f4a8a9d67 but not solution or workaround atm, afaik

[topaz echo]

r u running dedi on same machine as the game?

[trim panther]

Hi
in the vidéo on dedicated server, they said we are supposed to have access to the unreal console, but I still have the old one.
can someone tell me why&

?

[storm ember]

Getting this on IPv6, even though port 7777 is open on TCP and UDP (tested from external network)
Windows firewall exceptions added as well
Anyone have any advice on this?

[proud pendant]

cgnat

[storm ember]

Why would an ISP use CGNAT on IPv6?

[strong heron]

Hello, my server is running but i can't connect even tho i added rules to my firewall and router 😦

[storm ember]

Nevertheless - shouldn't be the case with ipv6:7777 available from external network

[proud pendant]

sorry i agree but trying to route ipv4 will never work

also some old ass carriers still dont have ipv6 cough cough some aussie providors

[topaz echo]

i got 1gbps fiber and no ipv6 lol

[proud pendant]

real

[topaz echo]

in america

[storm ember]

Gonna need more information for your issue
IPv6 is related to the issue I am having

[proud pendant]

anyone got an idea about the API cert issue, im running windows server 2016 on proxmox VE

[strong heron]

This is the console, i'm using epic to run the game, not using the epic dedicated server tho.
Listening to port 55555 because my router cannot open port under 20xxx

[topaz echo]

you cant connect even via lan?

[storm ember]

Anyways, I do have IPv6, shows in ip6.me and such, externally checking port 7777 on the IPv6 is open, confirming that my inbound rule to allow traffic to 7777 works
I add server with ipv6 on my machine and I get "Failed to connect to Server API"
localhost and LAN IPv4 work. IPv6 does not (with this issue ^), neither on proper IPv6, nor on link-local

[thick tusk]

hey...I setup a tailscale to try and make my server work. no friends available right now for testing..

anyone here willing to test it for me?

[strong heron]

NOthing seems to work no

[storm ember]

to add to my issue above, tailscale IPv4 seems to work
Just make sure you have a direct connection with your clients (tailscale status)

[barren raven]

be a bit more specific?

[thick tusk]

Trying...but im still a bit confused by tailscale... hence needing someone to test things with me to make sure ive done it right

[proud pendant]

require assistance to do with saisfactory dedicated server
proxmox ve hypervisor running server 2016 (windows) using steam cmd anao login ports 7777 are all fowarded via windows firewall
error is failed tls handshake cert is too new

[chrome pumice]

Is both TCP and UPD 7777 open?

[proud pendant]

that enough?

[chrome pumice]

You only need port 7777 on TCP and UDP now.

[proud pendant]

NTP is NOT the problem my DCs are syncing time

yes sigh I know its not the issue

[topaz echo]

as a note you can't run dedi and game on same computer

[storm ember]

yup! and destination is the right IPv6 and whatnot

[topaz echo]

if you guys are having issues being able to connect once, and then you leave you can no longer connect

[strong heron]

Really ?

[topaz echo]

yeah might not be the case under linux tho

[chrome pumice]

My setup doesn't use ipv6 but I think there are some things in the pins on this channel about ipv6 if you have not already looked at those.

[topaz echo]

yes i was tearing my hair out wondering why the hell every time I left the server it just stops working I'd have to restart it

[storm ember]

Additionally, a dedicated server will bind to 7778 on UDP on IPv6 and a random port on TCP on IPv6. These are NOT critical and you can safely ignore them, but we will address that in the future.

goddammit

[chrome pumice]

Yeah I thought I remembered something weird about ipv6 stuff.

[thick tusk]

ipv6 has errors and cant be used right now..

https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server/issues/301#issuecomment-2347947260

[storm ember]

TCP being random doesn't sound like a good time tbh

[topaz echo]

as long as its not open on your firewall

[thick tusk]

other members in this channel helped me figure that out. Still dont understand it really. But its been explained to me to be a unique to IP6 issue...

[storm ember]

Either way it's odd since on ip6:7777 it can find the game

[thick tusk]

very

[storm ember]

alright, ipv6 shenanigans, thanks

[thick tusk]

I spent 3 days seeing it on ip6 with friends but never getting past the api or connection issue

gave up and now im trying to learn tailscale... but thats all new to me too

[storm ember]

1. install on host machine -> authenticate
2. install on client machine -> authenticate
3. use tailscale's IP to connect

pretty much that's it

[thick tusk]

ive done those then...

[mortal birch]

where can i change the "max. Players" for the server?

[strong heron]

I can connect with my ipv4 but not with public IP while port have been forwarded 😦

[proud pendant]

require assistance to do with saisfactory dedicated server
proxmox ve hypervisor running server 2016 (windows) using steam cmd anao login ports 7777 are all fowarded via windows firewall
error is failed tls handshake cert is too new @barren raven

[thick tusk]

Would you mind using my tail IP to see if you can connect?

[chrome pumice]

Game.ini file.

[strong heron]

My friend can't find the server, so frustrating

[storm ember]

check out tailscale dot com/kb/1082/firewall-ports if tailscale status shows relay instead of direct, you might need to allow 41641/udp

[storm ember]

only devices on the same tailnet can connect to one another

so that would mean to invite me to your tailnet

[thick tusk]

So I need to give everyone an invite too then

[chrome pumice]

The only thing that would be stopping this is if all the ports are not forwarded correctly. port 7777 TCP and UPD only. Double check.

[thick tusk]

Im willing to do that if if means a successful test.

[storm ember]

yeah, tailscale uses 100.64.0.0/10 subnet for tailnets

[chrome pumice]

You should have about 20 different .ini files in that location.

[barren raven]

require assistance to do with

[strong heron]

My router cannot open these port min 20000

[storm ember]

and I dont think those won't be accessible from a different tailnet

[thick tusk]

then I could find the subscription option if it works to add more users

[storm ember]

iirc you have a few users for free

and about 100 machines

[thick tusk]

ahh ok. so gotta find someone without a tailnet yet for testing.

[storm ember]

so you should be good

[thick tusk]

ahh ok

thank you.

[storm ember]

no problem

[chrome pumice]

Start the server connect to it then load into the game. Then go back to main menu save the game via the server manager. Then do a quit commande on the server manager console. Then check this location again.

[torn oyster]

I have port 7777 TCP and UDP enabled but not sure why is having this error, does anyone have any guidance on this?

[storm ember]

you can test yourself

if server is on the same machine as client

install and configure tailscale

[chrome pumice]

What is your startup command and what port exactly did you open?

[storm ember]

and in game use tailscale IP to connect

[thick tusk]

yea. I have my main machine on tailnet and the server and it worked. I still wanna try from outside though

[storm ember]

it should work, I have tested it myself that way

[mortal birch]

the server has been running since 1.0 update and 3 people have already played on it

[thick tusk]

3 days of failures has me...anxious lol

[strong heron]

PS E:\satisfactory> ./FactoryServer.exe -port=55555 -log -unattended
55555 is open

[storm ember]

I think the only reason for it not to work from outside is not being able to establish a direct connection so just set up the tailscale client on your friend's machine and they should be good to go

[thick tusk]

So...will they need to install tailscale too or just use my invite from my server link?

[chrome pumice]

Have you quit it from the server manager console? This is the only way I know to force generate those file. If the server doesn't generate those files for you then it will not work.

[storm ember]

they'll need to have tailscale client installed

[chrome pumice]

55555 TCP and UPD?

[strong heron]

Yep

[lucid grove]

anyone else got the issue when deleting walls etc. you ahve to rejoin so they are really gone?

[teal minnow]

So anyone found a fix for desyncing objects like walls and foundations yet? A dev said in the chat a year ago to use [ConsoleVariables] wp.Runtime.EnableServerStreaming=0
in the engine.ini file and was wondering if anybody had tested this out yet to see if it works

[storm ember]

and the invite would be to your tailnet (i.e. so their account has access to your subnet)

[chrome pumice]

Have you double checked with an external website or tool that scans your public ip for open ports while the server is running?

[strong heron]

Port 55555 is open on *************

[strong heron]

It is, yes

[mortal birch]

just enter "exit" as a command?

[chrome pumice]

Then it should be working. What do you see on the server console when you try to connect?

[chrome pumice]

Quit.

[thick tusk]

I think I understand. Thank you. Gonna need them to start testing. man long day of waiting now

[storm ember]

good luck

[strong heron]

I can connect, my friend cannot join, server seems offline for him, send him my public ip and 55555 as a port

[chrome pumice]

Yes but what does the server console look like when he tries to connect? Do you see anything from his IP trying?

[mortal birch]

ok thanks of lot

[strong heron]

Nothing appears in the console

[chrome pumice]

You see the files now

[mortal birch]

yes

i write
MaxPlayers=10
and has saved

server start and Player 0/4

[chrome pumice]

Check if the external IP on your router is the same as your public IP.

[teal minnow]

I'm hoping this issue is fixed pretty soon because it can get real bad. It's a bit strange that it seems to be a pretty common issue that only occurs on dedicated servers especially since they've fully released dedi serv yet they feel a bit buggy right now

[chrome pumice]

[/Script/Engine.GameSession]
MaxPlayers=10

[storm ember]

keep in mind, though, that the issue of server going offline after client from the same host as server disconnect also happens if you connect to the tailscale IP

[thick tusk]

shouldnt be an issue for me

[strong heron]

Yes it is, i double checked it. That's why i can't understand why it's not working, i've asked my friend and he sceenshared me, he does enter the good ip/port combination

[thick tusk]

My server is run on a dedicated R740 sitting in the garage

[chrome pumice]

Your are 100% sure they match. Those only time I have seen it not work with everything forwarded correctly is when the ISP is using CGNAT IP.

[mortal birch]

ok now thank of lot
allright

[pseudo current]

is that enough to update the server or does it need to be done in a different way? (1.0 and forward using steamCMD)

[quiet elbow]

I got rid of my "server offline" problem. Creted a ubuntu VM and followed a guid to set it up. works greate now.

it is not "get another computer so solved" I had the issue with separate windows machine aswell

[chrome pumice]

You should do the same thing you did to install it as updating it.

[proud pendant]

hmmm im getting a failed to SSL state for socket

[pseudo current]

ty

[strong heron]

yes i am, trying to see if my ISP is using CGNAT

[chrome pumice]

You should be able to tell by looking at the external IP on your router. If is in the 100. block is prob CGNAT. If it is CGNAT then you will not be able to host a server.

[proud pendant]

silly question but why is the vert valid in 4hours

(GMT IS 13 35 RN)

[chrome pumice]

Your time/date is messed up somewhere. Check your timezone setting maybe?

[proud pendant]

no my date time is synced to my DCs

both are synced to microsoft

but ill see if proxmox is being stupid

that might be it proxmox thinks is 9am tmr

ofc i didnt set f NTP for the hypervisor omfg

[storm ember]

Narrator: it was proxmox being stupid

[proud pendant]

we will see just getting my chrony file now

[pallid citrus]

is it odd that I always imagine the narrator has an english accent?

[storm ember]

it's always Morgan Freeman

[strong heron]

I relaunch everything and it works now, my friend crashed on login but i think we're fine

[chrome pumice]

Weird but thats good.

[strong heron]

Thank you for your help, does the server stays running when we're offline ?

[trail kayak]

I heard 1.0 servers have a new api, what can I do with it

[chrome pumice]

Thats a setting in the server manager. auto pause i believe.

[cold ravine]

there is a pin but: https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server/wiki/Official-API-Docs

[thick tusk]

@storm ember When they DL and install tailspin.... how do they connect to my "network" it seems to be forcing them to their own

[storm ember]

send them the invite link to your tailnet

[viral gate]

do i need to enter a multihome address to bind my local device in the game.ini

[chrome pumice]

no

[thick tusk]

thats what I thought I did...

[pseudo current]

I don't seem to be able to type anything in the satisfactory server console - what am I doing wrong?

[chrome pumice]

Are you the admin? And you are using the Server Manager console window right?

[pseudo current]

oh...im so dumb...I thought you meant the cmd window of the actual server....no I didn't even think about the console in the in game server manager

[proud pendant]

anyidea how to reset the cert for the server

i fixed my proxmox time

but the cert is still the previous one

[thick tusk]

Got it. Share machine...they skip setup and its good after they make an account. Successful test! Buddy got into the Dedicated server!

[chrome pumice]

Uhm reinstall maybe? Or you have to troll through the files till you find it.

[proud pendant]

sigh il just reinstall

[amber spoke]

FYI if anyone else runs into this issue that the server crashes when creating a new world. Using Proxmox on host machine and dedicated server in a debian VM with SteamCMD. Changing the VM CPU type from default (kvm64) to "host" fixed the issue for me.

[proud pendant]

any idea how to steam cmd uninstall?

[thick tusk]

granted he had 65 ping... which is high for when we normally direct connect. But totally acceptable!

once they fix the ipv6 option it will be even better. thank you @storm ember

[chrome pumice]

apt_uninstall maybe? I just rm -f the directory.

[proud pendant]

in windows ill just delete and reinstall

[chrome pumice]

Yeah the game save goes to a different place then the game so blowing everything away should be fine.

[proud pendant]

havent played since 0.5

so no save

just getting it working but thanks renstalling got gigabit so non issue

[strong heron]

Well, each time i dc from the server, i need to restart it, he appears offline

[chrome pumice]

That is a know issue effecting some people. unlucky.

[strong heron]

Okok, thanks

[proud pendant]

can you set your server to accept Domain names or does it not care and its doen via cname

[lethal bridge]

is there any known issues for linux dedicated servers since 1.0? cause my server seems to be up but not shown up ingame as server

[wispy mist]

I need to figure this out as well... I should have things plumbed up to connect external via a cname, but right now I can't even connect via my internal IP address... I have to use the hostname of the NAS I'm hosting it on...

[proud pendant]

chill i use freemyip for dynmaic DNS and uch prefer giving my domain over my non static ip

[viral gate]

any suggestions

[proud pendant]

@chrome pumice i uninstalled the entire folder and its still has the cert

is it in the MMC / can i remove it

found it

[nimble wraith]

Aside from making sure your startup command is up to date, not really - they removed the need for Multihome, BeaconPort and QueryPort

So the startup should really just be the FactoryServer.sh file (or the binary file that sh file runs, either or) with -Port=(Your server port) as an argument added

[storm ember]

no problem, glad it works out for you

[glad canopy]

Hi, i started dedicated server on steam and connected myself, how my friends can connect ? my ip:7777 ?

[foggy belfry]

hey. I am following the installation instructions from the SteamCMD page, and after running this command:
sudo add-apt-repository multiverse; sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386; sudo apt update
I get this as a response to sudo apt install steamcmd :

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package steamcmd is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'steamcmd' has no installation candidate```
Steam cmd doesn't seem to be downloaded, but I don't see any troubleshooting help on the SteamCMD page so wanted to know if any1 knows what im doing wrong.
I am using ubuntu on an Oricle Cloud server. Basically a fresh install aside from port forwarding being set up

[lethal bridge]

hmm no i always started up without any parameters without problems

[proud pendant]

@chrome pumice cant get the cert to reset manually set my time to 6pm GMT 0 and it all works now ill go to sleep and the cert will be valid tmr XD

[stoic stream]

Every single time my server "restarts" because it has that 24 hour timer, it doesn't come back up

[deep turret]

did you do apt update ?

[nimble wraith]

^^

[stoic stream]

and if i am in the game, and i exit the server, and i go to click the server in the server manager, it just crashes the server

[foggy belfry]

yes

[quiet elbow]

if the CPU are x84_64 it migth be repo issue.
read a bout a simillar problem when the repo got prio of -1

[foggy belfry]

i think the cpu is arm?

[nimble wraith]

I dont think Arm can use the steamcmd package

[proud pendant]

☠️

[quiet elbow]

then it will probably not work

[nimble wraith]

realistically you can just download SteamCMD itself

[proud pendant]

"arm:

[nimble wraith]

then run it with the args at the end

[brave sorrel]

steamcmd +force_install_dir ~/SatisfactoryDediv1.0/ +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

Success! App '1690800' fully installed.

./FactoryServer.sh -multihome=192.168.1.66 -Port=17777 -log

CL#366202

I still get the "cannot connect to server API". I thought it was fixed?

[deep turret]

it will not do it since its arm

[nimble wraith]

ex: ./steamcmd.sh +force_install_dir "/SatisfactoryServer" +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

[nimble wraith]

remove Multihome

[deep turret]

arm is not supported

[nimble wraith]

Like by satis?

[gentle cave]

Hey all, saw that there was version mismatch for the server this morning. I see that there was a patch pushed on the client side 3 hours ago, but it doesn't look like the dedicated server received an update in steam DB. Is this in flight?

[brave sorrel]

ill try

[nimble wraith]

I couldve swore steamcmd itself will run on Arm, just not the built in package xD

[deep turret]

by neither satis nor steam, and steam can't even start to work with box86 virtualization

[nimble wraith]

huh, the more ya know

[deep turret]

^ so this is basically the only comment for arm

[brave sorrel]

problem persists

[nimble wraith]

https://steamdb.info/app/526870/depots/ The main games public branch hasnt gotten an update in 22 hours, server hasnt gotten one in 14 hours (https://steamdb.info/app/1690800/info/)

Way more likely either your client or server is out of date

[foggy belfry]

i think i saw someone say once that its possible since someone has done it, but idk

[proud pendant]

how many vcpus is enough for a 3 player server (windows 2016) i gave the vm 20gb of ram i assume thats enough

[foggy belfry]

just found a reddit for a possible solution I will be trying

https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/v6b9n5/steamcmd_on_arm_with_box86_and_box64_issues/

[deep turret]

not with steamcmd

[nimble wraith]

thats all that should be needed. Is the port open to both tcp and udp?

[deep turret]

you need to prepare the package out the arm machine on a x86-64 one, then provide the game in tuned virtualization layer, on a powerful machine

[nimble wraith]

Or just download the files with Depot Downloader xD supports arm as of 2.5.0

[deep turret]

which means only few% of any real arm machine can actually run it, and it even need extreme tuning and experimental workaround

[nimble wraith]

but running the game on it would just be jumping through hoops - so not really worth

[gentle cave]

I am looking at it right now --

dedi: https://steamdb.info/app/1690800/history/
game: https://steamdb.info/app/526870/history/

tried a forced update in LinuxGSM, but it says I am on the most recent build.

[brave sorrel]

17777/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
17777/udp ALLOW Anywhere

[gentle cave]

Server manager has different things to say about it:

[deep turret]

20GB is going to be barely enough for very big save, but you should be ok for a long time, and more player does not necessarily increase the number of core needed nor ram
it will simply grow the save faster as you are multiple people to work on it, and will increase cpu use, but not scale with number of core
so stick with 4-8vcpu and keep in mind 8vcpu is already overshoot

[nimble wraith]

already ran a validate on the client as well ?- the update from 3 hours ago youre seeing isnt related to the game itself its just updating steam info

Ones that change builds show more info (ex)

[proud pendant]

chill ill do 6 vcpus and 40gb of ram, luckily i have a 384gb hypervisor

[nimble wraith]

..huh

pop me your server ip?

I'll give it a go, I can connect to my own fine xD

[proud pendant]

[gentle cave]

sure -- i'll dm

[nimble wraith]

yeah that.. should be it 😅 id assume other servers on that machine are working fine?

You could also try just adding -ini:Engine:[HTTPServer.Listeners]:DefaultBindAddress=any

[brave sorrel]

i ran pre 1.0 just fine

[nimble wraith]

which really shouldnt be needed

[deep turret]

then you will be pretty much very fine, and have room, the only issue you may have is not fast enough cpu

[nimble wraith]

but it fixes that xD

[proud pendant]

its a 16 core xeon system from 2016 so there not the fastest in the world but they are the "frequency optimized ones"

[deep turret]

then it will not be butter smooth but should do it

1.0 is better in that regard compared to older updates

[proud pendant]

i think storage will be the issue need an excuse the upgrade from 8x 15krpm sas disks anyway

[deep turret]

update 8 servers struggled even on 7800X3D

[proud pendant]

7800x3d isnt a great server cpu tho?

[deep turret]

storage will never be an issue, savefiles are highly optimized

[proud pendant]

i mean my last save ran fine on a 6700t

[proud pendant]

really good to know

[deep turret]

it is for satisfactory, keep in mind the server is running unrealengine

data server != game servers

[proud pendant]

real, it much prefers single core eh?

[deep turret]

yep

that's why it's been a time now that datacenter provides with gaming cpu host for game servers

[proud pendant]

yea ik we had a client with the i9 issuse

the returns did actually go crazy

[nimble wraith]

^^ Same reason the bare minimum chips we put into our new machines at BH are all ryzen 7000 series 😅

That boost clock is phat

[proud pendant]

i got this hypevisor free from work so ill take my E5-2667 and leave 🤣

[nimble wraith]

Another game was running into issues on specifically i5s and i9s; if the server ran with either of them it just failed to start 🤣

[proud pendant]

thanks for the help guys got it all working anyway !

[nimble wraith]

plus the recent fiasco where intel chips burned themselves over time? eesh

[proud pendant]

@nimble wraith trying to buy some 3d vcahe cpus for database workloads for work cant wait to see them rip

fastest 16 core to meet ms licencing

[chrome pumice]

For what? Your screenshot looks good to me I am not sure what the issue is your having.

[viral gate]

sorry yeah i was able to figure it out, not enough coffee yet but thank you

[brave sorrel]

Build: ++FactoryGame+rel-main-1.0.0-CL-366202

is this the hotfixed version (multihome hotfix)

[nimble wraith]

believe so? Lemme check my server vers rq

[toxic anchor]

Any big advantage of playing multiplayer through a server instead of hosting through "single player"?

[nimble wraith]

anndd apparently mine felt like validating itself when I restarted it 😅 love that

I'll letcha know when its finished xD

[deep turret]

the biggest save I've seen in my life, a 2400hours world

[nimble wraith]

Preference? One requires youre around when others can play, whereas hosting it on a remote machine or another pc in your house allows players to connect whenever they want - even if youre out of state

[proud pendant]

That's tiny god daym

Also with servers u get ecc redundancy etc etc

[nimble wraith]

[2024.09.13-14.40.10:687][ 0]LogNetVersion: Set ProjectVersion to ++FactoryGame+rel-main-1.0.0-CL-366202. Version Checksum will be recalculated on next use.

Yeppers

[deep turret]

if you put the update command inside the service file launch commands, you may want to remove validating from it, as I think it will validate every start

[proud pendant]

Also if you work any the boys want o get on

[nimble wraith]

yeah wasnt related to that lol I edited the acf file earlier and forgot, so steamcmd got confused on boot

[toxic anchor]

Meaning less sync-problems?

[nimble wraith]

also, custom panel that I work on backend 😅 pretty hard to accidentally add it to the steamcmd args

[proud pendant]

Less EVERYTHING problems (that's using acutal server hardware tho not just a pc)

[nimble wraith]

Truth

[toxic anchor]

Okay thank you all

[nimble wraith]

honestly if a game has server support, I use that over self hosting it via the ingame Host options every time

I get annoyed when my friends dm going I wanna play but im in bed 🤣

[deep turret]

sorry I dont understand the "o get on" phrase

[proud pendant]

To get on*

[nimble wraith]

I think it was a typo - Also if you work and any of the boys want to get on

[proud pendant]

As in if your self hosting you don't need to be on 24/7

@nimble wraith in bed now phone is doing wonders for my typing

[brave sorrel]

(ops bad reply)

do you get

[2024.09.13-14.43.00:212][  0]LogOnlineSchema: Error: Invalid schema category lobby: Service descriptor id lobby not found.

on server start?

[nimble wraith]

yeah but im pretty sure those are totally ignorable

[brave sorrel]

yapp

just checking

ty

[deep turret]

wording police there, you used "self-hosting" for client game direct connection multiplayer session, which is misleading
as hosting here refer to running the server software
selfhosting is meaning running the server software on your own hardware (usually spare machine) instead of getting a game server provider service subscription

[nimble wraith]

np!

[nimble wraith]

no youre right it wasnt the right term haha

my bad 😅

[spring fox]

version mismatch fixed now?

[pale pivot]

what are all of the ports I need to open?

[nimble wraith]

just the base one 7777 or whatever you decide to define via -Port

[spring fox]

for me it was 7777, 15000 and 15777

[nimble wraith]

pretty sure 15000 and 15777 were the beacon and query ports, no?

Those arent used as of 1.0

[spring fox]

oh no clue if it changed

my server was older

could be solved by now

[nimble wraith]

ah yeah probably from when those were used haha

[deep turret]

but isnt it supposed to be "if you do not work" instead ?

[nimble wraith]

no, because the perk of hosting the server is that if you Are at work and the boys want to get on; they can

[brave sorrel]

do you run the default (7777) port?

[spring fox]

anyone has info if version mismatch is fixed now? does steamdb got updated for dedicated servers now?

[nimble wraith]

nah I run em off my servers @ work so the port is never default xD

my current one is underrrr... 2305?

[nimble wraith]

I havent gotten one, should be fine

There was an issue earlier, but afaik its been resolved

[proud pendant]

I guess you also have "save sovereignty" if you host your own, personally most of thr time paying for someone else to host it seems pointless.

[regal marsh]

only one port now 7777 both tcp and udp

[pale pivot]

I have the server online and running, I am currently connected and playing within a world. but the server shows "server name pending" and "not authenticated" and "offline".

[nimble wraith]

I just dont let others because I hold onto all my long term saves lol

[deep turret]

sorry I got it backward about what you were talking about, I thought you suggested using your actual server machine

[nimble wraith]

Got a dropbox with like 40 different games save files lol

[nimble wraith]

ah nono, we're both giving the perk of why to host it instead of use your own PC xD

[proud pendant]

@deep turret in my case I am using an actual server X d

[cobalt loom]

i did steamcmd installation but how can my friends join my server ?

[nimble wraith]

please man put that in a closet or something 😭

[spring fox]

give them the ip

[nimble wraith]

its so big

[spring fox]

and open the ports

[nimble wraith]

xD

[nimble wraith]

1. Start server
2. Use IP:port to connect

[spring fox]

still

lol

[proud pendant]

It's going in the hall way roof @nimble wraith

[nimble wraith]

Yeah this came up earlier, their server wasnt grabbing the steam update cause the process for the server was still running afaik

An update released yesterday, but there hasnt been anything since then

[spring fox]

i killed the process and sudo rebooted my server

[nimble wraith]

Well I can tell you the servers have the 366202 update, my own is running it right now xD

[spring fox]

and i did app_update and validate

[nimble wraith]

Try reinstalling it in another folder? just move over your save if there is one

Something on that server setup is causing it to not grab latest, why it isnt could be a slue of reasons

[chrome pumice]

You sure your updating the correct directory?

[nimble wraith]

also this xD

[deep turret]

I can hear and feel that picture

a lot of buzzing and heat

[foggy belfry]

heard that arm is not supported, but has anyone found a way to make it work with steamcmd?

[gentle cave]

your poor ears.... I slapped some noctuas on my xeons and threw it in an e-atx case and have never looked back.

[gentle cave]

until they message you telling you they can't log during your standup..

[nimble wraith]

yeahhhhh 😭 unfortunate truth lol

[kind crow]

If I log out from my server, it enters a pause state via CMD. How does one interact with the CMD to allow the server to start again without opening and closing it?

[brave sorrel]

is server API udp?

[livid sorrel]

hello

[chrome pumice]

Game.ini

[stuck coyote]

Add this to the command used to start the server

-ini:Game:[/Script/Engine.GameSession]:MaxPlayers=8

[chrome pumice]

It's a setting in the server manager.

[livid sorrel]

can someone help me

[chrome pumice]

You need to update the server.

[livid sorrel]

i try in steamcmd with app_update 1690800 validate

is a bug or something?

[minor granite]

what is "error missing token encryption" ? my friend cannot join server

[chrome pumice]

No you need to update your server.

[minor granite]

i have just create it from nitrado

it's just new

[wicked edge]

Hey guys, can you upload mods to dedicated servers in a format where it auto organizes on upload?

[silent sleet]

q. I have question. My frien (steam) hosts the world , and everyone except me use steam ver too. I have EGS version. When host enables IP mode for game , nobody except me is able to connect. How can we fix it?

[chrome pumice]

If you are getting a version mismatch after new creation from nitrado then you need to contact them to get it updated.

[minor granite]

ok

[minor granite]

i try to reinstall all the server from nitrado

[somber crest]

My friend can't add my server. (NOT SOLVED)

I have a Steam tools dedicated server on Win10. I have opened my firewall for port 7777 for both TCP and UDP on both Outbound and Inbound. I have port forwarded on my router for TCP/UDP on port 7777 (and tried 70-80).

I claimed the server in the server manager. Two of my friends could join the server (playing on steam, not on the same network) through my IP in the server manager on port 7777. My game and server are updated to the latest version.

Another friend tries to add the server with the same IP and port 7777 (and tried with others between 70-80). But instead of the certificate confirmation instead it has "Server name pending" and "This server appears to be offline". He can join other servers through their IP, but not add mine.

He has tried restarting everything. He has refunded the game on Epic and tried it on Steam, same issue.

[latent umbra]

I just created a server (hosted at G-Portal), claimed it, configured it, uploaded a fresh save and joined.
I myself can join just fine, however my 2 friends get "Encryption token missing" one on Steam, one on Epic, both have the same issue.
any tips?

[desert plover]

There is a new update ?

[chrome pumice]

Yesterday yes

[desert plover]

Okay so no new update my bad, thanks

[peak carbon]

Dedicated server crashing when any player leave

i have the same problem as here
https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/66e344ae772a987f4a8ae185

[chrome pumice]

Restart his client. Not sure what else to do. That's odd.

[somber crest]

very odd

[deep glade]

I have a problem with connecting to a dedicated server I just set up.

Connecting from the internal network works, however trying to connect from external does not work. This would make me think it's a port forwarding issue. However I just reused the port 25565 from the Minecraft server we had running previously, and connecting there works. Firewall rules for both TCP and UDP are set up for the port.

Using Test-NetConnection on the IP and Port also gives me back a "True". Anything else i could try?

[brave sorrel]

does server api care about servertime and system time difference?

[atomic venture]

So in the new version is there no longer Multiplayer Settings in the options menu once you connect to the dedicated server locally?

[brave sorrel]

its been bugging me a little bit:

oo, sorry bro

[twilit fox]

FYI, that's probably your ip

[topaz echo]

good call

[peak carbon]

not mine but yeah ip

[topaz echo]

friend ip

[peak carbon]

no

[brave sorrel]

i took tcpdump on my network adapter. i don't see anything in particular that hints why server api cannot connect.

[twilit fox]

Well, that's normally your ip if it's a remote connection. Or it's the ip of your server.

[peak carbon]

server one

[twilit fox]

Anyway, we're you able to connect and play on it and it just kicks you randomly?

[brave sorrel]

@sturdy gust do you know if server API is using UDP or TCP+

[twilit fox]

Is mine craft still running? You can only listen on 1 port

[proud falcon]

Normal that all enemies spawn after respawn ?

[peak carbon]

server kick everyone when someone leave
one player dont have that issue

[twilit fox]

An, I've seen that mentioned here a few times. I don't know if there's a fix or not.

There could be

[deep glade]

I am aware. But no, i closed the instance. I figured out the problem though, the port forwarding was only happening on TCP and not UDP. And Test-NetConnection is testing on TCP, and minecraft uses that as well. Still, thank you for the help 😄

[twilit fox]

Yup, that was going to be my next guess. Good deal

[dusky wedge]

Server API is TCP

[shadow rapids]

Uh, I am having a problem where no one can join my server they enter in the IP and it wont even show up on the list in the server manager. If anyone knows what could be wrong that would be great

[peak carbon]

we cant find what different between crashing players and stable player

[dusky wedge]

You can test that connectivity by tossing https://<your server ip>:7777 into your web-browser. It should come back with a warning about the certificate not being trusted (and an API error if you click through that) if you've got the ports forwarded correctly.

If it comes back saying it couldn't connect to the server, then your networking config needs work.

[chrome pumice]

Your ports are not forwarded correctly.

[regal marsh]

old foundations not dismantling desync is really annoying lol (the ones I didnt place in the same session)
have to always relog to have it disappear and be able to build there

[shadow rapids]

hmmmmm, I thought I did that correctly how should they be?

[long crane]

anyone got feedbacks on indifferent broccoli ?

ubuntu god damn

i love windows 😄

[shadow rapids]

I redid that. And it still is having problems do they have to do anything on their end?

[shy storm]

yes

its no problem

[spring fox]

still

[chrome pumice]

Do you get an error/crash?

[brave sorrel]

ok

[shy storm]

okey can you reach me in dm?

[spring fox]

its just on my server my pc is dualboot

[spring fox]

sure

[chrome pumice]

No

[proud stag]

where might i find a logs folder?

[chrome pumice]

Everything looks fine in that log? It ends with 2 people connected and it auto saving just fine. Maybe verify your install?

[proud stag]

client side?

[chrome pumice]

Server side.

[proud stag]

how would i do that

[chrome pumice]

Pretty much the same way you installed it.

[hollow mist]

I set up a server, played for 3 hours, then quit the game, now it says offline, can't open, can you help?

[chrome pumice]

Probably crashed. You just need to restart it.

[shy storm]

hey batu, u can reach me in dm

i can help you

we talk same lang. 😄

[shadow rapids]

is the right way to have it setup within the windows defender or I am missing something? (I have it like this for udp and exact same for tcp as well)

[chrome pumice]

If your server is on Windows then you will prob need to do it on the windows firewall and the router firewall.

[shadow rapids]

okay Ill try that thank you

[proper abyss]

Hey does anyone know how to setup a dedicated serrver?

Me and my friend finally want to do dedicated server instead of hosting

But i have no idea what to do and what to start with

Can someone help out?'

give me two mins im gonna get a sandwich

[shy storm]

yes man

i will send youtube link

[hearty goblet]

Any insight into how I can change the forced server reboot at midnight? I already set up a cronjob to restart the satisfactory service at 5am but the server still wants to reboot at midnight which is quite inconvenient.

[proper abyss]

tysm

[shy storm]

np man have a good game ❤️

[proper abyss]

Thanks

is it free?

Or do i gotta pay

hold on im gonna get another sandwich'

[shy storm]

Always free for me 😄

[sturdy gust]

You can change the time from the in-game server manager. It says it's the interval, it's mislabeled 🙂

[hearty goblet]

oh its not the interval but the time when the server restarts?

[sturdy gust]

Yep 🙂 It may be in UTC

[hearty goblet]

cool ill nuke my cronjob then

[atomic venture]

If you get your's working let me know, we're also having an issue getting the server up on a Windows setup with SteamCMD.

[proper abyss]

your what job 🤨

[chrome pumice]

The server manager settings is a clock. 24 hour = midnight not 24 hours after server start.

[shadow rapids]

uh still not working at all, I am trying a different computer in hopes that will work

[atomic venture]

We even wiped out the server and the entire config on both Windows Defender and the router and reapplied everything. Still can't get the game to show when attempting to connect to it externally. Only way we can connect right now is internal, and when we try the web address it does not load the license error, just times out.

[chrome pumice]

There is also a video in the pins of this channel.

[hearty goblet]

Sounds like a port forwarding or firewall problem

[atomic venture]

Yeah which we've checked about 1000 times, and we can't see what the problem is.

[static anchor]

is anyone else having an issue with getting the settings for the server to stay. We changed the auto pause and on server restart it goes back to default?

[hearty goblet]

run a tcpdump on the server on port 7777 when someone tries to connect from the outside. if nothing comes up its for sure an outside factor.

[chrome pumice]

Yes just keep saving till it sticks. Took mine like 3/4 times.

[wise fiber]

i got to this part of a server but i can't manage to click authenticate without it saying that the "connection to the server has been lost" --
does anyone know how to get past this?

[static anchor]

i see it in ther serversettings.ini, but seems to get ignored on restart

[shadow rapids]

I think mine is related to my routers firewall which is highly restrictive for some reason

[atomic venture]

Yeah we thought that could be the case too, but before we blew everything out and started over we even tried turning Windows Firewall off and added the device to the DMZ, still got no where.

trying that tcpdump now

[tepid rock]

Thanks @sullen tulip for the Prometheus exporter you put on Github! ❤️

[chrome pumice]

Is the IP on your router the same as your public IP?

[atomic venture]

The modem or the router?

[hearty goblet]

Shouldve used linux

[atomic venture]

It used to be on LInux

[sullen tulip]

Thanks for your thanks 😊

@tepid rock if you need a feature / endpoint or anything else, feel free to contact me or open an issue 😇

[gray prawn]

Whats the difference between ip and steam multiplayer? is steam multiplayer just like any other normal steam multiplayer on steam servers, where its not using your pc as the dedicated server?

[sullen tulip]

@tepid rock and others: and always ping/@-mention me, because I did not even now before some seconds that I'm on this discord server 🤣

[chrome pumice]

Steam multiplayer is p2p. IP is server based.

[chrome pumice]

Whichever you have.

[atomic venture]

Well the router is going to have an internal IP, and the modem has the WAN address.

[shadow rapids]

you can evidently find your router ip in cmd prompt

[atomic venture]

yes that gives you the internal gateway address

[chrome pumice]

Then both need port forwarding. And use the modem IP compared to your public.

[gray prawn]

ok, so its just like any other multiplayer game on steam, like i wouldn't need a stronger computer to make it run well?

[chrome pumice]

Correct.

[atomic venture]

The modem IP would be the puplic IP.

[shadow rapids]

would you do that through your router online config?

[chrome pumice]

Not in every case. If your ISP is using a CGNAT IP this might explain your issues.

[dusky fulcrum]

Someone achieved to install a 1.0 dedicated Server on linux and successfully connecting? In Early Access it worked fine for me now i get api errors in server manager

[atomic venture]

the wan is not in the 100. range, its 75.176

[chrome pumice]

Ok then back to your port forwarding rules. Something is not working with those.

[atomic venture]

well the port forwarding is fairly straight forward we have 7777 forwarded to the device and set to both

[chrome pumice]

You are not forwarded all the ports. 7777 TCP and 7777 UDP only.

[deep turret]

did you update in-place, or is it a fresh install ?

I had api certification errors before, I solved it by simply clean installing

there have be very significant changes in the server mechanisms package and configuration

it is basically a different software

[dusky fulcrum]

so i only need 7777 tcp/udp and not longer the 15000?

[deep turret]

just using the old savefile directories fine

[chrome pumice]

Correct.

[dusky fulcrum]

well now its working, 7777/tcp wasnt open
thanks alot

Wiki not up to date tho

[chrome pumice]

Your not looking at the correct wiki. Cause it's uptodate for me. Satisfactory.wiki.gg

[deep turret]

the fandom one is deprecated since about a year now

[crystal bridge]

good to know

[muted hill]

I followed this and it works like a charm, for Linux:
https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[deep turret]

most issues arise because people didnt fresh install it

[dusky fulcrum]

yeah you're right, was looking at some other wiki

[deep turret]

and have legacy stuff that's borken

[muted hill]

I just rm -rf the previously install.

[deep turret]

keep the root folder and steamcmd access right on it * though

[proper abyss]

yo guys

anyone know how to answer ths

wait

What do i do

anybody?

[spark pumice]

how many times have you tried and got this? try a couple more times. sometimes steam is janky

[proper abyss]

i did like three times

four

[chrome pumice]

Never seen that.

[proper abyss]

Buh

[deep turret]

quick search show it's just out of disk space error

I was almost about giving you a letmegooglethatforyou link

[boreal juniper]

ive seen it in 1 of 4 satisfactory servers im running. i just reinstalled and re configured it and havnt had an issue yet

[proper abyss]

So i gotta redo it'

im confused

[proper abyss]

hat do i do

what

if it is

[deep turret]

1 check your disk space

2 you probably want to reinstall the server anyway

[proper abyss]

Check space where

I forgot

[deep turret]

where you are installing

[proper abyss]

Wym where

Easy steam cmd i think idk

[deep turret]

we are not talking about your bedroom drawer there

[proper abyss]

Yeah we are talking about disk space

not my bedroom drawer

[deep turret]

I mean to check where you are installing

[proper abyss]

Like Steamcmd like wym where

Like where as in what

[deep turret]

steamcmd is a cmd steam utility, it's not a location

so you are not using force_install_dir option ?

[proper abyss]

Oh yeah i am

But i think i did it wrong

[deep turret]

are you on linux or windows

[chrome pumice]

The disk space on the drive you are installing on.

[proper abyss]

cause the file wont copy or whatever

windows

That file wont give me the id

for satisfactory

[deep turret]

look at the address/location bar

[proper abyss]

Where is that located

[deep turret]

at the top of the window

this is windows abc

[spark pumice]

that looks like you're trying to install it to OneDrive man

[deep turret]

there you go, the location is onedrive

[proper abyss]

buh

[chrome pumice]

Brother don't install to OneDrive

[proper abyss]

Wherre do i change it to

[deep turret]

if it was any disk ti would be writtent the disk letter

[proper abyss]

how

[deep turret]

so the "space" is the space on onedrive then

[proper abyss]

ohh i see the onedrive

[deep turret]

(but now you dont want to install on onedrive)

[proper abyss]

how do i change

it

[spark pumice]

you need to install steamcmd to the hard drive on the machine, you want the server on. You're running steam cmd from your onedrive

[proper abyss]

Yeh i couldnt find the hard drive location on file manager

[deep turret]

or just follow wiki and write +force_install_dir whateverdisk:\..

[proper abyss]

wym whateverdisk

Whats taat

tjhat

[deep turret]

C D E M N Z G H ..

the disk you want it on

[spark pumice]

best advice I can give you is if you don't know how to change where you install things, rent a server

[proper abyss]

too broke

[deep turret]

^

[proper abyss]

ill figure it out

[deep turret]

you'll have to learn lot of things then

[proper abyss]

Yes

[deep turret]

because you seems to not have at least the file management skillset

[proper abyss]

Yes

but dw im smart

[deep turret]

do you have the googling skillset ?

because this is not a windows support channel

[proper abyss]

Yeah

ill use chatgpt 4.0

we good

or ill js ask my friend

[deep turret]

then please use that for getting you info on how to manage your files

[frigid yew]

Any reason why I have to restart my server every time I want to reconnect to it, even though the cmd window seems fine?

[deep turret]

what if you do not restart it ?

[frigid yew]

It just comes up offline in the server browser

Can't connect

[deep turret]

seems you got hit by the apparently common windows server crash

is it a fresh install ? or did you update from older server ?

[proper abyss]

dude i just deleted everything on accident 🤦‍♂️

[frigid yew]

Oh I guess the server wasn't a fresh install

[boreal juniper]

If your able to use Linux to run your server i would use that, more stable than windows. I use Ubuntu 24.04

[deep turret]

and have a lot more builtin tools to manage servers

[weak shuttle]

that is definatly a point of view

[boreal juniper]

Ill make it easy 🙂

No I don’t disagree. I’m having massive stability issues on windows

Server stops accepting connections after about 12 hours

[plain shoal]

Easier with docker x)

[weak shuttle]

you need a decent computer that's mostly the issue. If you run windows it requires more of the computer compared when you run ubuntu for instance

[pallid citrus]

It isn’t a resource issue. This computer runs the game just fine and it isn’t being used for literally anything else

Ijs this server definitely isn’t working right for a LOT of people

[topaz scarab]

speaking of docker, @sturdy gust do you need me to explain it again or

[pallid citrus]

Maybe it’s not their fault

[chrome pumice]

I would say it's working fine for most people.

[plain shoal]

I have no problem with

[weak shuttle]

I use a dedicated refurbished mini hp computer with 32 GB ram, Windows 11, it works just fine and have for a couple of years now

[chrome pumice]

[subtle stone]

Where do I find the session ID in 1.0 🙏 🙏 please I want to play with my friends

[steel osprey]

95% 😄

[chrome pumice]

Servers don't have a session I'd they use IP.

[steel osprey]

??

[subtle stone]

yeah i know but people in #satisfactory are ignoring any question and this channel seems not that far from the questions

[boreal juniper]

to set it up for auto start and update when the VM starts up for the DS

[timber burrow]

exotwd's right

[chrome pumice]

I know nothing about non server questions. Maybe try the wiki.

[topaz scarab]

stick a killsignal=sigint in there else it just kills the server when stopping

[atomic venture]

So we tried adding the device back to the DMZ once more and rebooted the router, can still connect to it via internal IP, but not public

[subtle stone]

the wiki is empty abut the error I'm getting with my friends

[chrome pumice]

What is your error?

[subtle stone]

thats using the cross play session id

[boreal juniper]

good catch didnt even notice that. Thanks

[subtle stone]

I'm on epic and my friends on steam. I'm hosting.,

[chrome pumice]

Are both parties steam and epic accounts linked?

[proper abyss]

Just fixed it

only took me fifteen mins

told u

im smart

[steel osprey]

If I understand correctly, the session ID no longer exists. Either join via IP or via steam or via epic direct

[deep turret]

that will create a satisfactory directory in whatever base directory you at with different access rights, and also put the save file in another whole directory which is in the default user home directory because you didnt change the default directory for that user, which makes it hard to manage, at least add a note for the directory and user setup please

[subtle stone]

I didn't read about that

is there a tutorial anywhere?

[deep turret]

and neither will work with dedicated servers

[chrome pumice]

I think you can do it in game. In the settings.

[subtle stone]

Okay works now that my friends linked their epic account.

[timber burrow]

not really

[quick mist]

Morning folks.

[deep turret]

please this is dedicated-servers channel

[subtle stone]

Thx for the help guys. You were the only goon cave channel that was able to answer

[steel osprey]

have nothing to do with dedicated servers

[deep turret]

for direct/simple multiplayer use #satisfactory channel

[timber burrow]

sorry, terribly sorry

[atomic venture]

So we tried a wireshark on the dedicated server and didn't see the external connections coming through, but we could see them attempted on the router logs.

We then just hosted a game on that same network from a normal device and adjusted the port forwarding, I was able to connect to that device.

[quick mist]

sounds like the router was eating the traffic

[chrome pumice]

So the router ports are open but the host is not?

[atomic venture]

It's like the router was somehow blocking the traffic, that's why we added it to the DMZ, but still got nothing.

However hosting a game from another endpoint, not the dedicated server, on the same network works just fine.

[chrome pumice]

Maybe the router is borked?

[topaz scarab]

install openwrt

[deep turret]

an other wording for what darkcyco said is : check your server machine firewall

to open both tcp and udp 7777

[atomic venture]

we turned that firewall off all together so there should of been 0 security anywhere

[deep turret]

did you check the listening sockets ?

[atomic venture]

yup and they are at 7777

[proper abyss]

hey how are you supposed to know what your server address is once you make it?

[deep turret]

address is tied to your network

it's basically netowrk location

[proper abyss]

but where i find that

[atomic venture]

Your router should be able to tell you, or if you can console into your server you can get it there. What's the OS?
