dedicated-servers

[full bolt]

the game through steam

is there any benefit to using the experimental dedicated vs the other one?

[void gorge]

Hey fellow hosters 🙂

I would like to ask for your guidance
Is the linux dedicated server bug free compared to the windows one after the latest patch?
I'm trying to install the server on a Dell laptop:
Which is the best linux dist. to use for dedicated server?
CPU: i7-6820HQ
RAM: 16GB DDR4
Any idea what would be the player limit on this machine? I'm aiming for a 8 slot server, but afraid that I don't have the hardware to support it. 😦

[spark pumice]

the number of players isn't going to be the problem, the more you have going on the more resources the server uses. Players is going to be based on upload, but with that hardware you're begging to have problems....laptops don't make good server hardware

[buoyant narwhal]

Hey guys, I'd like to play with my dad on my dedicated server, but I'd like to start from the beginning/tutorial stage so he can learn how to play as we go. I know by default the Dedicated Servers new games' don't include the tutorial stage. Would a possible workaround be to start a new game on my local machine and then upload the save files to my dedicated server?

[void gorge]

Unfortunately its the best option i have. I have gigabit connection so that wouldn’t be a problem. You say laptop suck because overheat, or the fact that the cpu is an old one? I thought the ram is going to be my first bottleneck

[void gorge]

#patch-notes

[spark pumice]

Server side the game is mostly CPU dependant, and once you start getting things automated and going 24/7 real time its break that laptop

[buoyant narwhal]

I don't see anything in those patch notes about multiplayer ?

[spark pumice]

how old is you dad?

[spark pumice]

If he's an OG like me, he'll be fine, just get let him play around, he'll figure it out

[full bolt]

win10 for both server and client, running the server through epic
the game through steam
is there any benefit to using the experimental dedicated vs the other one?
Do you need more specific info?

[buoyant narwhal]

67. Yeah he could probably figure it out and of course I can help him figure it out, but the beginning steps are pretty entertaining

[spark pumice]

there is no benefit to speak of man, just run the released version

[spark pumice]

I assume he'll be playing on his own machine, you won't always be playing at the same time. He can single player then and do all that

[south oracle]

deleting a certain piece of hypertube crashes my server

not entirely sure why

this is the console error

[spark pumice]

I don't think deleteing the hypertubeis whats giving you that console output, I think that has to do with connectivity

It seems to be with servers that didn't do a clean install after 1.0

[steel osprey]

but it looks like, it have nothing to do with the hypertube. You have the same error on serverstartup:

[2024.09.14-07.50.49:042][  0]LogChaos: FPhysicsSolverBase::AsyncDt:-1.000000
[2024.09.14-07.50.49:043][  0]LogOnlineSchema: Error: Invalid schema category lobby: Service descriptor id lobby not found.

[2024.09.14-07.50.49:043][  0]LogOnlineServices: Error: [FLobbiesCommon::Initialize] Failed to initialize schema registry

[south oracle]

I did a clean install after 1.0

the only time my server has crashed is deleting this hypertube i tried 3 different times with the same results, only with this section does it do this

[south oracle]

what could be the reason for the error?

[steel osprey]

i'm not a dev, so idk

[spark pumice]

thats going to be a bug report then, but that console output isn't a part of that problem

[south oracle]

okay

the console instantly closed whenever i hit the hypertube, i was hoping i could see the console errors, maybe i can check logs

this is the error when the crash happened

[fading quarry]

open your save in SCIM and see if there are double buidables on that location.

there have been a issue with invisible buildables making the server crash in previous versions of dedicated server.

[south oracle]

how do i find my save for the server?

or would it be through satisfactory rather than the dedicated server

[fading quarry]

windows or linux, docker or bare metal?

[south oracle]

nvm i found it

this is the location

[fading quarry]

also before you do anything did you restart your server first?

[south oracle]

before what

[fading quarry]

before you modify save by deleting that section through SCIM

[exotic oracle]

Is connection via ipv6 still broken in linux as stated in the pinned message?
I sadly have cgnat so i cant open ipv4 ports. The server says it binds the server api socket fine but inly creates a new HttpListener on 0.0.0.0:7777 and not one for ipv6

[south oracle]

should i save the game, close the server, edit it, then reopen?

[fading quarry]

My bad I had a brain fart, I thought it was the client that crashed, just delete that part with SCIM and load that save then restart the server and see if you still get the issue.

[south oracle]

okay tysm

[spark pumice]

I haven't seen any IPv6 support added

[fading quarry]

IPv6 is supported. (#patch-notes message)

[exotic oracle]

i had it running through ipv6 on windows yesterday
just thought running a server on windows kinda sucks

[obsidian seal]

Hello, I made a server, and about every 30 hours the server crashes, here's the log: Please help

[fading quarry]

weird, having said that server by default is set to restart every 24 hours.

if it does not, you should setup a scheduled task/cron job that restarts the server every night.

[obsidian seal]

I noticed that it crashes after a reboot. Today the server rebooted at 12 a.m., after rebooting I went to sleep, in the morning trying to connect to the server, I saw that it was turned off, although the reboot was successful. This is the second case in 3 days

[fading quarry]

I see, I use a backup solution that will shut off my container every night at 4am take backup and then restart the container, so my container have yet to run for more than 24 hours consecutively.

If I am not mistaken there should be a script both for linux and windows on the wiki that will just keep the server alive incase it crashes (by simply just restarting it as soon as it exits).

[spark pumice]

He asked if it was still broken......My statement was that there were no changes to that part of it being broken, maybe I should have said, no further support has been added....

[runic vapor]

Hello, is anyone having the problem of not being able to upload an existing save file to a dedicated server?

[steel osprey]

maybe no space left ?

[fading quarry]

I am having this problem on Linux so i just have to download and upload manually with sftp.

[runic vapor]

Space is available, but yea, I will try uploading it manually. Thanks

[quick mist]

I wonder if the game dæmon is running as a user other than that which owns the directory it's in?

[fading quarry]

yea that is what I was thinking as well since I am not running as root on my system, but I am too lazy to investigate it since I have always just used sftp anyways

[runic vapor]

i set it up by following the instructions on the wiki page, and set up steamcmd using a dedicated steam user. And my default user did never access anything satisfactory related.

[obsidian seal]

I understand you mean Docker, but I don't use it, I use Screen on Linux to run the server, maybe the problem is just in it?

[buoyant narwhal]

My dad just created a local game on his computer so he can do the tutorial, and chose Steam and Open to friends in the Multiplayer Settings, but we can't figure out how to invite me to his game

(I tried uploading my brand new game to the server, and it worked, but it disabled the rest of the tutorial)

[spark pumice]

The tutorial isn't that long man, just let him SP it. Shift+tab opens your steam overlay. Find each other on that list and invite

[obsidian seal]

This script probably won't help me, because after the crash, I can't even run it, it crashes with the same error

[obsidian seal]

It started the second time

[junior tapir]

Idk what your crash dialogue said, but in my case it was just a freak thing, something somehow got weird when I was making a blueprint and deleting stuff using different methods. My solution ended up being having to save my save file by opening it in a save editor to delete the cursed blueprint box and the blueprint that was inside of it. In addition, I deleted the blueprint files. This solved my problem and now blueprints are working fine.

In my case the error was Assertion failed: mConnectedComponent-

IsConnected ()
Attempted to disconnect an already disconnected connection.
This is a logic error where the game is trying to dismantle a connection that is already disconnected. The issue is likely happening during the dismantling of a conveyor belt or another connected factory component.

The solution given worked for me, it was a freak thing cuz it was literally the first blueprint I had made like you

[obsidian seal]

The server rebooted in 24 hours. The last auto-save was at 8:58 a.m. The auto-save frequency is 5 minutes

[umbral mulch]

heyo guys - are there any recommend server hosters for 1.0 or is an own server still the top notch option?

[junior tapir]

I’ve been loving my indifferent broccoli server, it’s been great I’ve had 5 players on it regularly and they have good support. They have uncapped ram and if you ever experience issues they will respond to you in their discord.

[deft plaza]

Hey any minimum hardware requirements for Dedicated server hosts

[spark pumice]

heard good things about them as well

[umbral mulch]

site seems to be good and fair. luckily they also have EU servers. 🙂

thanks for the advice!

[regal marsh]

its the hour
not the frequency
(the restarts)

[junior tapir]

I know they had some hardships with palworld earlier in the year so there are some haters, but they learned some lessons and made it right for people. can’t beat the uncapped ram.

[spark pumice]

I've never done business with themm but I have done business with your sponsored links when you Google server hosting and they are all terrible

[junior tapir]

No prob. Pay with a credit card if you want to use their donate feature if you want others to be able to pitch in for the cost. I used PayPal and found out the hard way. The 48hr trial lets you get a feel for the performance and if you don’t like it then you don’t like it. Mine has been flawless, no lag or stutter.

[spice zenith]

whats the best website atm for buying dedicated servers? and what spec is really needed

[peak carbon]

Dedicated server crashing when any player leave

[spark pumice]

what specs are needed depends on what you're gonna end up with.....pre 1.0 my main was using 20GB of RAM and around 15% of a Ryzen 9 5950......if you're not going to fill out the whole map and have a lot of stuff going, then prolly 25% of that, it was also set to a 60 tickrate....any host that comes up as "sponsored" in a search is one to stay way from

[muted hill]

Why is "Keep Inventory" a player setting and not a server setting? Anyway to force this as a server setting? 🤔

[thorn cloak]

Any way to modify the server tickrate? Can't find it.

[spark pumice]

find the Engine.ini file and add this to the correspoding sections

[spark pumice]

[/Script/OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver]
NetServerMaxTickRate=xx
LanServerMaxTickRate=xx

[/Script/SocketSubsystemEpic.EpicNetDriver]
NetServerMaxTickRate=xx
LanServerMaxTickRate=xx

[/Script/Engine.Engine]
NetClientTicksPerSecond=xx

[thorn cloak]

I can't find it lol

if you have a path would rly help

tried with grep

[spark pumice]

windows or Linux?

[thorn cloak]

linux

[spark pumice]

then I have no idea, lol

[spark pumice]

is there not a way to search for it like in windows?

[thorn cloak]

it is but it can't find anything

[ivory loom]

Anyone knows a dedicated server service that works with 1.0? I tried 2 different now and I cannot connect. "server name pending" - "not authenticated".

[spark pumice]

if you see that you are connected and you're supposed to set those things from the in game interface

[ivory loom]

Both are offline when I try to connect ingame

[spark pumice]

click something like "create game" and it should prompt you to create a password ect. as the server owner

[ivory loom]

hmmm. Are you explaining how to setup my own server? I do not want to host myself. I want to pay for a dedicated service.

[spark pumice]

you should have been sent an email from you server host with the IP, you enter that into the address part

[hazy cape]

hello! is there any option to start dedicated on windows with Tier 0?

[mighty portal]

at the moment u cannot start a dedicated server with tier 0 they always start with tier 2

[ivory loom]

Had to do a manual update in the server admin. Now it works. Thank you

[mighty portal]

#patch-notes

[hazy cape]

someone started working instance on linux using AMP?

my server works and i can add it to client server manager, but when i try to set up new world the server just reboot :/

[raw owl]

so a vm?

make sure the cpu type is set to host

[hazy cape]

so dedicated wont work on KVM?

[raw owl]

didnt for me

had to be host

[hazy cape]

have too much VMs on this host :/

[quick mist]

A KVM hypervisor should be perfectly fine to run the server software if the underlying host has enough horsepower

[sturdy gust]

They don't always start at tier 2

In my save for example, it started at tier 1 with just tier 0 being skipped (intentionally so)

[potent cedar]

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to run a dedicated server on Linux. Everything works fine until I try to load up a world. I can't figure out what the issue is.
https://pastebin.com/wQ2aFsfM
Any help is greatly appreciated.

[full bolt]

Is starting a new game on a server just SUPER slow? How long did anyone else here have to wait for it to get past the "starting game" loading screen?

[vernal schooner]

How do i kick people using commands?

[opal owl]

a minute? maybe 1.5?

[sturdy gust]

Damn, it's usually 20 seconds or so for me

[opal owl]

i was being hella generous, its closer to 30 seconds yeah

[deep turret]

mb now that I'm on pc I dont see the e anymore 👍

[opal owl]

have you considered docker? it's gonna be much easier

@sturdy gust so, i can get around the API error by using your docker compose but can only connect to it through the 'manage server' menu. when me or my friends try (after it has been setup) to direct connect to it i get 'token not found.'

ideas?

[lost palm]

I've got this really annoying issue where build pieces don't vanish after I disassemble them. I have to relog everytime for it update those pieces. Anyone know why?

[vagrant bone]

what server hosting site do you recommend? I was thinking about shockbyte, but i saw many negative reviews. Any recommendation?

[potent cedar]

Tried it. same issue.

[deep turret]

I would say that most satisfactory providers will have a lot of negative reviews cause of the very early official support for it, it was experimental until before yesterday
but some have more than others still

[opal owl]

what's the system like you're running it on, tell me more about the environment

[deep turret]

I dont have direct experience with it, but there is a good summary by Delphium here

[opal owl]

i would find someone in this thread who is paying for a working server - find out who they're using and how they set it up

[deep turret]

short answer #dedicated-servers message
long answer #dedicated-servers message

[pseudo current]

how do I find out which player is causing that? number seems to short for a steam ID

[potent cedar]

A virtual machine running on a hypervisor

[opal owl]

what hypervisor?

[wary fern]

software to create and run vms

[potent cedar]

Not sure, im renting the vm from a hosting company

[opal owl]

not what IS a hypervisor lol WHICH hypervisor ffs

[wary fern]

could have been more clear tbh

[opal owl]

oh. i would just say that then. i thought you were runing KVM or something at home. anwyay - that's unimportant

the answer is in the log you posted i'm sure. lemme look it over again.

[potent cedar]

thanks :)

[midnight wave]

Guys Is there any work around to make the dedicate server to start on T1?

[opal owl]

can you link it again?

[potent cedar]

sure

https://pastebin.com/wQ2aFsfM

[opal owl]

thx

[opal owl]

there was somethting about it in the patch notes

[midnight wave]

yeah but for now is there any work around?

[potent cedar]

here is another log but from the docker server:
https://pastebin.com/NiQwfkZu

[mighty portal]

is there an api function to get the current server name? like there is an rename function but i couldn't find any function to get the current name

[opal owl]

which docker were you using?

[pure rover]

Hi all, new here, is there a step by step guide anywhere for setting up a Truenas Scale based dedi server? Thanks

[potent cedar]

Docker version 20.10.21, build 20.10.21-0ubuntu1~18.04.3

[opal owl]

i mean which satisfactory server container. i used wolveix/satisfactory-server (google that, the link gets auto removed) and it worked out of the box

[potent cedar]

yup, I used this one too

[opal owl]

when was it crashing again specifically?

[potent cedar]

when I try to create a world or load one

[turbid hound]

Is there any fix for foundations staying there as "ghosts" after dismantling them?

[opal owl]

@lost palm is having the same problem. two brains are better than one.

compare environements

[opal owl]

that sounds memory related, and there was spooky memory stuff in that log you posted. but from what i understand 14gb should be enough....

[chrome pumice]

Is it an old save or a new save?

[ornate grotto]

There are two versions of co-op play available. Multiplayer is where one of you hosts the game and the others connect to it (client to client). When the host goes offline, then the game is offline.
The other method, that this channel supports, is to uses a dedicated server. This is separate hardware that runs a cut down version of the game (either locally on a spare pc or rented) and it is then always running so each player can join whenever they want

[potent cedar]

new save

[opal owl]

i mean look at mine at idle

[potent cedar]

oh wow thats not much

[opal owl]

that's an non-pause server so it's running

[chrome pumice]

Have you tried reinstalling the server? The errors look like general ue shit.

[opal owl]

he's tried regualr and docker and the UE errors your talking about were in the docker try - which is also weird

like the whole point of docker is to avoid enviornemtn errors like that

[chrome pumice]

You on proxmox?

[opal owl]

i'm on unraid

[potent cedar]

I don't really know what the vm is running on

since I'm renting the vm from a company

[opal owl]

it's just an ubuntu vps

[chrome pumice]

I only asked that cause proxmox has a CPU option that's fucked for ue.

[opal owl]

lemme ask you this, how did you install the dockerized one

did you follow a guide or somethin?

[vapid yew]

Server Manager not working, No Error message shown.
When I try to add my friends dedicated server with the server manager from the main menu, it just doesn't work. It works perfectly for them, and as it is a professionally hosted server we do not have access to the Docker files. I do not even get any error message and can't find anything in the logs that gives me any hint what is going on. I adjusted port forwarding on my router and my local machine deactivated my firewall and reinstalled the game , multiple times, even bought it again on steam as i thought it might be a problem with the epic version but this problem still persists.
Any one else already experienced a similar thing? or any idea what i could look for in the logs?

[potent cedar]

I used the guide on the github page

[silver orbit]

Your firewall isn't the issue if you aren't hosting the server

You know the port it is being hosted at ?

[opal owl]

i don't see a guide, can you link me? sorry i really am trying to help

XD

[potent cedar]

here, no worries xD
https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server

[chrome pumice]

Have you blown everything away and tried again? Also we're you on the same VM each time?

[opal owl]

yeah i found the repo

i'm saying i don't see a GUIDE there

[potent cedar]

Oh, under setup

[opal owl]

gotcha

[vapid yew]

Thank you so much, checkin the port i found i typo ^^ was getting to frustrated and did not check that again. have a nice Day!

[opal owl]

what output do you get when you run it?

[potent cedar]

The logs?

[opal owl]

it just starts logging? i see

wait - what mean is after you hit enter there, does it say anything? like 'command sucesful' or 'starting' or anything at all?

[sturdy gust]

That's the game's design, you're not meant to join via the join menu, but through the server manager

[opal owl]

everyone, every time?

[verbal adder]

hey kinda new and im wondering about how difficult it is to setup a server?

[sturdy gust]

Yes, that's the way the game is designed 🙂

[wary fern]

Figured that out aswell it kinda makes sense tho

[opal owl]

oh... well what's the other way to join there for? lol

[sturdy gust]

To join friends, not servers

[wary fern]

The docker compose is really helpful spins up a server with 1 simple command

[opal owl]

😐

[wraith jetty]

Hi, the server aparently shuts down, when noone is logged in, can I change this in the ExecStart command in the satisfactory.service file?

[potent cedar]

If i run

docker run \
--detach \
--name=satisfactory-server \
--hostname satisfactory-server \
--restart unless-stopped \
--volume ./satisfactory \
--env MAXPLAYERS=4 \
--env PGID=1000 \
--env PUIDadsLESS=false \
--env STEAMBETA=false \
--memory-reservation=4G \
--memory 6G \
--publish 7777:7777/udp \
--publish 7777:7777/tcp \
wolveix/satisfactory-server:latest

it returns the container id I believe nothing more.
When I run "sudo docker logs satisfactory-server" I get this output:
https://pastebin.com/Gj4XiNKa

[opal owl]

@potent cedar this is how i got it working

[sturdy gust]

It's a known bug when hosting the server on the same system you play on

[wraith jetty]

we host it on a linux server and restart=on-failure

[wary fern]

@sturdy gust there you go bro great thing you provided for the community!

[sturdy gust]

Oh man, thank you so much!! Thats very kind, and greatly appreciated 😄

[wary fern]

gotta support the work

[sturdy gust]

Looks like you have a permissions error, hard to tell as I'm on my phone right now

[sturdy gust]

Your volume bind is wrong

[wary fern]

He also got too little storage so it should fail anyways

[wraith jetty]

I dont get this 😄
I naturally play on the the system where I host the server , isnt it?

ooh I think i get it. no its 2 different systems

isnt there a configuration option?

[chrome pumice]

You have auto pause on. It's a setting in the server manager.

[wraith jetty]

can I do this also in the startup like this: -ini:Game:[/Script/Engine.GameSession]:MaxPlayers=6

[chrome pumice]

Yes

[wraith jetty]

I already searched the existing ini files but I do not find the autopause option 😦

[chrome pumice]

In the server manager.

[wraith jetty]

Ok I should have looked into it (Server manager) and I think I can derive the name of the options which I can add then to the start up section

[chrome pumice]

It's easier to just change the setting in the server manager but if you want to make it a startup option it should work.

[slow smelt]

No news on the foundation ghost/desync glitch?

[wraith jetty]

I see. There are also options like AutosaveInterval which I can´t add to startup because it´s an array or something with name/value.
Thank you for giving me the direction 🙂

[brisk otter]

guys my dedicated server keeps crashing whenever i start it up

[chrome pumice]

That setting is also a clock not an interval. 24 hours = midnight and 12 hours = noon

[chrome pumice]

Reinstall? What platform are you on?

[wraith jetty]

ooooh ok

[brisk otter]

im using a linux headless

[chrome pumice]

Proxmox?

[brisk otter]

google cloud

[chrome pumice]

Have you tried uninstall then reinstall?

[brisk otter]

i dont want to lose my save file

[chrome pumice]

It's in /user/.config back it up then do that.

[chrome pumice]

Have you tried to verify the install files?

[scenic kernel]

quick question, hosting my own server with someone else via the steam dedicated server, but whenever anyone leaves the server crashes and has to be turned off and on again

[ornate grotto]

This is a known issue, especially if they are on the same machine

[scenic kernel]

okay, so no immidate fix, just work around it and wait for fix from devs?

[ornate grotto]

Yes, or don't host the dedicated server on the same machine, use Multiplayer instead

[scenic kernel]

we got way different time zones, so I rather have my pc on with the dedicated server than have the game open aswell

[ornate grotto]

Then you are stuck until they resolve the issue

[scenic kernel]

okay thanks.

[scenic kernel]

if I were to download the dedicated server steam on my laptop connected to the same network, and have that running instead of my desktop, would that fix it?

[ornate grotto]

Yes, use the steamcmd

[deep turret]

#dedicated-servers message @potent cedar I'm late to the party but

[misty haven]

I'm getting the same thing and I have no idea what to do

[lost palm]

Yeah.. they are there but when I try walking on them I just fall trough.

Rejoining the server fixes it, but its getting annoying at this point.

[deep turret]

this is what it is doing (shutting down), but is not WHY it is doing it, which must be earlier in the log file

[potent cedar]

what exactly is wrong there?

[turbid hound]

Exactly the same thing happens to me

I restarted the server and it seems to have helped, but I don't think thats a permanent fix

[cursive field]

brother is it just me or are dedicated servers unplayable after space lift stage 2?
my server is using half its resouses and it lags so much

[night spruce]

Who is your host? I have had no problems at Oil production with lag

[cursive field]

24fire.de

[unreal crystal]

no probs here; barely chooching 5% of my CPU

[cursive field]

its using 1 core not more

i got 4 cores and 8 gigs ram and the server only uses only 4 gigs

[night spruce]

Do they do shared or unshared hosting? A lot of those hosts are shared when it comes to games.

[cursive field]

i got a kvm root server

it shouldnt be shared

[night spruce]

Might need to make some upgrades. I am using Nitrado and only using 3gbs with no lag.

[unreal crystal]

those look like just shared VPS; hence why you're allocating how many cores you want access to. that could be why

[cursive field]

so you think i should only use 1 core?
not all 4?

[night spruce]

What he's saying is that you are sharing resources with other clients.

[cursive field]

okay... but then i would need a dedicated server and i dont have the money for this

[unreal crystal]

you won't see any difference; you're sharing the CPU with everyone else running every CPU intensive task you could imagine if it is indeed a shared VPS. they tend to lead to the performance problems you're noting for those reasons

[dusky wedge]

Mounting a volume requires a source (on your machine) and a destination (in the container). You’ve only provided one argument. You probably want —volume ./satisfactory:/config

[cursive field]

okay

[lost palm]

Does it also happen with the Asphalt foundations for you?

Seems to be specifcally those that mess up for me

[turbid hound]

Applies to normal and concrete for me

Haven't gotten asphalt yet

[lost palm]

Just foundations tho?

[potent cedar]

whats wrong here?

Change the ./satisfactory to the full (absolute) path of the directory.

[sturdy gust]

Relative paths work just fine with Docker, and the provided path fulfils the given conditions

[sturdy gust]

Check your version of Docker, update. Alternatively, as @dusky wedge suggested, supply an absolute path

[burnt saffron]

i can make a server in EU, first to figure out how to make it work to be persistent the saves

[unreal crystal]

i just learned about htop for hte first time lmfao. it was mainly highlighting how little my systems cared; even with it and 7+ other servers runningor w/e. we're on tier 5-6 abd yea its big chilling; i don't have a single core over 20%

[deep turret]

I mean ~/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/ there you go

[granite crystal]

just create docker-compose. yml and install

[naive grove]

Is 16gb ram, i5 12 gen, enough for a 2-3 player dedicated server?

[granite crystal]

yes

[deep turret]

number of player does not change ressource use much

[burnt saffron]

i know that, just the docker image doesnt store them in persistent storage. Was using truecharts but that doesnt work anymore with truenas scale

[sturdy gust]

???

[burnt saffron]

what wolveix ?

[deep turret]

I mean this is literally just a setting in docker, I dont even know why you are using weird third party tools

[sturdy gust]

Not sure what image you're using, but it does store the saves in persistent storage if you're using a bind mount (as you're meant to do)

[deep turret]

as long as you know the path to get persistent it's not complicated

[granite crystal]

you can install portainer for manage your docker

[sturdy gust]

Not a big fan of Portainer personally 😄

But, it works for many people

[faint sundial]

I attempted to host a dedicated server but only local within the network can join but not through public ip (Ipv4 /ipv6)
Port have been port forward & firewall has already exclude.
Any ideas?

[granite crystal]

Portainer allows you to quickly and easily manage your images visually

[ornate grotto]

The correct ports? They changed in v1.0 release to just 7777 on both TCP and UDP

[faint sundial]

Yeah, TCP & UDP 7777.
Restarted router and PC to no avail.

[ornate grotto]

Who is your internet provider?

[dusky wedge]

I don’t use the apps tab in truenas scale, so I can’t grab a screenshot for you, but you need to add either a volume or a host path volume underneath the “Storage” header. That should be mounted at /config in the container.

[faint sundial]

TM (Malaysia)

[ornate grotto]

Check that they aren't using Carrier Grade Nat (GCNAT), you won't be able to host unless you have a Static IP address

[burnt saffron]

oh ok ? thank you

[faint sundial]

Don't think so since the public IP changes after my router restarts. If you mean Static IP within the router, that is already set.

[ornate grotto]

No GCNAT is an ip address in front of your IP address

[arctic basin]

I am running into some trouble where my server is up and running but I cannot connect through the Satisfactory game interface for server management

nvm i fixed it!?!?

the power of a rubber ducky ladies and gentlemen ❤️

[faint sundial]

From what i search about CGNAT, if the IP is different from the router and on the whatismyip/any ip checking site. then it will have CGNAT.
Is this correct?

[ornate grotto]

Yes that's usually a symptom

[faint sundial]

Then no, both are the same. for IPv4 & 6

[ornate grotto]

And you've verified the correct ports on your Router/Firewall and on the server firewall?

[faint sundial]

I checked for both UDP & TCP and using the powershell command. both are on 7777.
:: 7777 FactoryServer-Win64-Shipping-Cmd
0.0.0.0 7777 FactoryServer-Win64-Shipping-Cmd

[dusky wedge]

A brief search suggests that TM has implemented CGNAT on at least a subset of their plans in 2021.

[faint sundial]

I'm on the higher plan, which I should* not be affected by the said CGNAT.
It only affects lower than 100Mbps

[ornate grotto]

That looks like the powershell to check that the game is running, not the firewalll ports

[faint sundial]

I did say I also added to the router for port forwarding prior in the first message.

[ornate grotto]

Yes, but the local windows machine also has a firewall. I was just checking that you'd updated that as well

[faint sundial]

All checked, added to exception, added to port forward in router, checked the CGNAT.
Whats next... at this point I just going to host normally instead if still no solution.

Still thanks for the effort to help tho.

[ornate grotto]

If all is correct, then I have no further idea's

[faint sundial]

It's cool.
First time I face such difficulty to host a dedicated server other than Palworld's dedi-server

[void gorge]

how can i change the max players on linux server? 🙂 pls help

i see this not working

[dusky wedge]

There’s an argument you can pass to the server when you launch it: #dedicated-servers message

[cosmic arch]

so is somebody having issues with the blueprint designer? It crashes my server.

[patent cedar]

Anyone run into any issues with rails triggering segfaults, reading the log it seems to be when a signal is placed. Also crashes single player if manually loaded there. Any way to fix the save or just roll back far and hope?

[valid tundra]

Looking for some instructions on how to upload my blueprints onto a self run dedicated server if anyone can help? Thanks

[deep turret]

how did you set the firewall rules on the server machine ?

[gentle shore]

when you rejoin your game, building just being missing, is that a known issue?

half the biomass burners just disappeared

[faint sundial]

It's on a normal windows environment. I'm just a casual player not a server hosting site.
Sorry. You can try ask others, they may be able to help you more on that.

[deep turret]

It's not for me but for you
I'm genuinely asking
because if you set it up manually you may have miss some settings in the rules

mainly edge-traversal one

the easiest way is to follow the satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki page powershell script

[quaint oak]

The duplicate players when they crash hasn't been fixed? :/

Is there any way to mitigate that?

[topaz echo]

edit game.ini in the dedi server factorygame\saved\config\

editing in %appdata% will just change stuff for your main game

[faint sundial]

I did follow from this site.
So......

[deep turret]

the powershell script you used ?

[faint sundial]

From this section? Checking Listening UDP Ports on Windows
Yeah

[deep turret]

no for setting up the firewall

[void gorge]

thanks. ./FactoryServer.sh -Port=7777 -ini:Game:[/Script/Engine.GameSession]:MaxPlayers=8 is not working for some reason.

what is that folder in linux do you know?

[topaz echo]

similar folder

[faint sundial]

You mean this?
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Allow Satisfactory default inbound port udp" -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -EdgeTraversalPolicy Allow -Protocol UDP -LocalPort 7777
New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "Allow Satisfactory default inbound port tcp" -Direction Inbound -Action Allow -EdgeTraversalPolicy Allow -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 7777
Yes i did,.

[deep turret]

ok

[topaz echo]

FactoryGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer but instead of WindowsServer it'll be linuxserver or something @void gorge

[chrome pumice]

Do you have the Game.ini file already created?

[deep turret]

on the forwarding rules you made all 7777 you didnt change the external port mapping ? (ex: 7768 to 7777 etc..)

[hybrid dune]

Hello, trying to start a gportal server, and it says "server name pending not authenticated" does anyone know where I can look for solutions?

[void gorge]

Its not there

[deep turret]

it should override it though (but yea Idk may be some issues)

[faint sundial]

No range. just 7777 only

[deep turret]

you can try putting the argument before the -Port one

also check the escaping/quoting, I dont know if windows commandline need one

[unreal crystal]

yes; happens when it corrupts/fails deleting and clearing items. you have to manually edit your save to fix it

i still haven't seen anyyone use teh blueprint designer successfully

[chrome pumice]

It needs to be created by the server for it to work. The only way I know of to force its creation is to quit the server from the server manager.

[dusky wedge]

We use it extensively on our server

[faint sundial]

like this?
./FactoryServer.exe -log -unattended -serverQueryPort=7777 -BeaconPort=7777 -Port=7777

[deep turret]

I meant external to internal port, but you may not have that settin anyway
check the target local ip is the one of the server (and not your current pc for instance)

[deep turret]

no ??

dont use old arguments

[unreal crystal]

how often does it corrupt your buildings though >.>; my first try; first corruption. it's not really instilled much faith in it

[deep turret]

they are not used nor supported

[void gorge]

How can i access that srv manager?

[deep turret]

I was not talking to you

[cosmic arch]

what the heck

[chrome pumice]

In game how you connect to the server.

[dusky wedge]

We have not observed any such issues yet

[void gorge]

Ah

😄

[chrome pumice]

Go to the console page and type quit at the bottom.

[deep turret]

remove the -serverQuery -Beacon stuff,
maybe your server is not even able to start with these

[chrome pumice]

Isn't anything after -unattended disregarded. I remember that being a thing in the past at least.

[unreal crystal]

https://satisfactory-calculator.com/en/interactive-map

Go delete errything on the blueprint manager here and then reupload the save

[deep turret]

whatever anyway no Beacon no Query thing

[faint sundial]

Tried with no argument also doesn't seem to be able to connect by the other side.

[cosmic arch]

so get out of the server, download the safefile and the upload it again after editing?

[unreal crystal]

yup

[deep turret]

or transfer it manually

[unreal crystal]

also good luck getting it to start the uploaded save; you need to disable the auto load session and some other bullshit

it doesn't just work™️ like you'd want

crashes trying to change/load a save if ones already loaded

[deep turret]

you can set 7777 internal just to be 100% sure if you want but look ok, double check the internal addess is the one of the host machine

[deep turret]

it should not do that, and does not do that on my setup

[void gorge]

that did the job, thanks mate 🙂

[faint sundial]

yes it's my own device static ip. I will try again later with the internal port thingy.
My friend side getting frusfrated by this now. we play the normal method for now.

[deep turret]

#dedicated-servers message
did you try that ?
i.e -ini:.. before -Port=..

[rain pine]

Just a question : i got a lot of warnings , is this ok or do i need something changed ?

[vivid parrot]

Hello. Anybody got a fix for invisible conveyor belt? i already restarted the server and the client

its just there somehow

[silver orbit]

this is likely fine I see it when I clipp stuff

[hybrid dune]

is gportal borked?

[silver orbit]

If it ever looks like this the save is corrupted

[silver orbit]

IP or port is wrong

[rain pine]

this is while walking or sliding btw

[silver orbit]

yea should be fine

[vivid parrot]

or he put the -port= and -beaconport= command in wrong order. caught myself on that a couple of times already

[trail radish]

Is it possible to have a server that is always running for free?

[vivid parrot]

yes. your own pc

[deep turret]

do not use beaconport

remove that argument

[silver orbit]

at the top of the server page it has the IP for and port fo connecting looks lik this
0.0.0.0:7777

[deep turret]

it is old arguments

[trail radish]

Would my pc have to be on 24/7 though?

[vivid parrot]

yep :(

[trail radish]

Ok thanks

[hybrid dune]

use same port at end of the IP or leave 7777?

[silver orbit]

he is using gportal which is a place to purchase a server they set it up and give you the info

[vivid parrot]

maybye but somehow works for me and i got every port custom set since my firewall is fucked. works so i dont wanna touch it.

[vivid parrot]

OH yeah sorry forgot. ye so ip or port wrong

[silver orbit]

no what ever IP and port is on the gportal page

[rain pine]

so this is kinda u5 engine response what is happening in the world?

[versed valley]

Anyone knows why non host players cannot destroy buildings when host leaves?

[clear lagoon]

headdesk homing ammo still shoots from your feet on dedicated servers 😭

[quick river]

I've tried multiple ways to forward the 7777 port on my asus router and I'm still getting port closed. Any tips?

[vivid parrot]

anybody knows what the hell is happening

ah wtf

why is it mkv

[tired ether]

Has anyone with spectrum internet set up a dedicated server? I'm attemtping to set it up on my PC but when my friends try to connect they just see server is offline. I set up port forwarding in the spectrum app for port 7777 for external and internal.

[rapid spindle]

no head glitching allowed 😄

[silver orbit]

yes the console logs every thign

[chrome pumice]

Define host player and non host player cause the host is the server and all the players should be non host with 1 being an admin.

[vivid parrot]

maybe you have a firewall somewhere along the way

[silver orbit]

the page looks like this and the arrow is point to where the IP and port is

[versed valley]

Me being the admin who created the map

As the host

[chrome pumice]

Did the server crash when you left? I have never seen this happen before.

[versed valley]

Nope

They can destroy it, but it weirdly stays there

[silver orbit]

what does the console log say when they are trying to delete after you leave ?

[tired ether]

I did adjust the firewall settings listed in tutorials

[versed valley]

Building is the same

[wicked edge]

Is there a new dedicated server wiki?

[chrome pumice]

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[deep turret]

reload your game, and/or server, there is a belt there and you dont see it on client side

[rapid spindle]

I have spectrum and it worked for me. They give me a relatively static IP. Check your public IP by searching whatismyip online, and then compare it to your router's stated WAN IP

If your area uses CGNAT you might be out of luck. Compare the two IPs, if they are the same, it should be working. If they are different, it won't work.

[vivid parrot]

alr gonna do it again

[sacred current]

Anyone using Shockbyte to host that has a fix?

[clear lagoon]

rejoin the game. I think there's a buildable there that didn't sync to the game client

[wicked edge]

Is this updated for 1.0And the API?

[patent cedar]

Log from my rail signal segfault

[ornate grotto]

API docs are on your PC

[wicked edge]

oh 🫠

[silver orbit]

mostly for the 1.0 server it is

[chrome pumice]

mostly yes. If you are looking to work with the API I am not sure that kind of stuff in in there. People here have done stuff with that you can check the pins for more info.

[silver orbit]

I am not aware of any api documentation yet

[tired ether]

I checked whatismyipaddress but the address shwon under ipv4 is not listed when I run ipconfig /all ipv6 is blank on that website.

[silver orbit]

so you would need to figure that all out yourself

[wicked edge]

https://github.com/Jayy001/PyFactoryBridge

[deep turret]

look at the pinned messages

[sturdy gust]

Check the pinned messages

[ornate grotto]

It's in the client folder of your PC

[silver orbit]

Sorry missed that!

[rapid spindle]

that's normal, ipconfig only shows your private IPs

Go to your router and check the WAN IP. You can get there by pasting your gateway IP (from ipconfig) into your browser

[vivid parrot]

already did that once so rn i am restarting the whole game engine and my own client

[silver orbit]

I have a few items that are invisible but they are the personal storage boxes

might just need to delete them and recreate

[vivid parrot]

if restart doesnt work i will try to see how does this look in the satisfactory calculator and remove it thru that

yep restart didnt do shit

[tired ether]

In my spectrum app I have my PC set to have the IP address reserved. Could this cause issues? in spectrum app it says my ip address is .1.129 but I don't see that listed anywhere in ipconfig or when I check the WAN IP.

[chrome pumice]

That is still your private IP not what Spectrum is giving you.

[vivid parrot]

yep i can see the conveor on the calculator

[clear lagoon]

ghost conveyor O:

[vivid parrot]

yeah XD

funny that i had to use THE POWER OF THE GOD to get rid of that

[silver orbit]

Are you hosting the server on the same network or are you trying to play with friends from their houses

[hybrid dune]

using this IP and port doesnt even give me an error, it just closes the window as if I did nothing.

[silver orbit]

What window? the server maanger window ?

[hybrid dune]

correct

[silver orbit]

doesnt it have the server listed then ?

[hybrid dune]

no

[vivid parrot]

alr thank you everybody :D

[tired ether]

Both. I've only attempted to connect from my wife's PC on the same network which is the one that gave the error. Haven't tried from anyone outside of the network yet.

[silver orbit]

do you have any servers listed there ?

[silver orbit]

do you have the Gportal server set to experimental build ?

[chrome pumice]

I think you are on the wrong build

[hybrid dune]

yes

[mellow solar]

Hello so i don't really know if hère IS thé right place BUT i've made a server to play with a Friend on 4netplayers and i have no Idea how to join the server that was made. If anyone could help me out it'd bé welcome

[hybrid dune]

afaik 1.0 experimental and main are same same

[chrome pumice]

That big red bar in the background is not correct. You have the wrong game build installed.

[silver orbit]

doubtful you like need both server and client on the same setting

[clear lagoon]

It's same build number, surprisingly. though I would recommend keeping on main xD

[silver orbit]

what did you use to launch the server ?

[mellow solar]

4netplayers website

[hybrid dune]

I initially tried on main branch, saw this message in gportal so switched to experimental

[mellow solar]

It's shown as running too

[hybrid dune]

will switch both back to main and try again

[chrome pumice]

Thsi is just wrong

[silver orbit]

you need to follow their instructions, they should give you the IP and port to connect to

[silver orbit]

yea I worked with someone yesterday that used gportal and they didnt need experimental

[tired ether]

@chrome pumice any ideas on my problem? Sorry to ping, I'm desperate lol.

[chrome pumice]

Look in the spectrum app to find the external/public ip they are giving you. I don't have spectrum to try and help direct you to where to look.

[silver orbit]

your wife computer is on the same network yes ?

if so, you need to allow the port in the windows firewall I am sure

[patent cedar]

Fix for the segfault rail signal issue causing save crashes in both single player and on the dedicated was to delete the offending players data using satisfactory-calculator. So far fix has persisted

[silver orbit]

7777 for both UDP and TCP

[tired ether]

Yes it is. I'll check those settings again.

[tired ether]

Unless I'm missing something, I think it is correct.

[silver orbit]

go to scope

what is there

also the programs and services

[silver orbit]

ok that looks good if the UDP one is the same

[tired ether]

Yes all the same there

[silver orbit]

on your wife's computer open powershell and type in the command below, fill in the server IP

Test-netConnection IP -Port 7777

Send screenshot of the result

[latent valley]

Hello!
I set up a dedicated server in a Ubuntu 24.04 LXC Container on my Proxmox server.
It generally works pretty well, but sometimes (about half of the time when playing), it gets very laggy, and I get a high ping (100-400ms) even though I'm on the same network. The average tickrate also falls below 20 at those times.

I gave the server 3 of my 6 cores, and they are never more than 30-50% used. I also looked in htop, and there is often one single core that's at about 80% (always a different one every few seconds), but it's never at 100%.
Memory usage is also never more than 50% of the 12GiB I assigned it.

The server is installed via SteamCMD and is running as a Systemd service. It's rebooting and updating every day.

I don't understand why it is so laggy on seemingly random occasions. Does anyone have an idea why, or have you experienced any similar issues since 1.0? Thanks!

[tired ether]

What is your proxmox cpu setting for the vm? one of the options has issues.

replace IP with the IP address from the server

you can get the by typing in
ipconfig

[noble escarp]

any1 else having server issues? it says its online but its offline on satisfactory

[silver orbit]

wrong IP or port, or your ports arent open

[latent valley]

I just set it to 3 cores. Also, it's not a VM, but an LXC container, but there shouldn't be much difference, except for less resource overhead, as far as I know.

[noble escarp]

worked fine yesterday

are you hosting and play from the same computer ?

[silver orbit]

it cant get to the TCP port so somethign is blocking it

[noble escarp]

no i use a website for it Shockbyte

[silver orbit]

the Windows firewall ports you sent were from the server right ?

[chrome pumice]

I don't use proxmox so I am not sure if I am saying this correctly but when you set the cpu (not the cores) one of the default options has a bunch of issues. It should be set to like host cpu or something. I wish I could say this better.

[tired ether]

I'm hosting the dedicated server on my PC which I'm also playing on. Yes screenshots were from my PC

[latent valley]

There isn't much I can change there...

[silver orbit]

do you have another firewall on the computer ?

[tired ether]

The server ip she enters in game should be the address shown when I check whatismyip(dot)com, correct?

[chrome pumice]

Its not under core and I really wish I knew more about proxmox to explain it better. I don't think it would be under resources.

[silver orbit]

no

[latent valley]

Maybe something under "Options"?

[silver orbit]

should be the Ip from ipconfig if you are on the same network

[tired ether]

Ok I'll try that but wouldn't someone from outside of my network need to enter my public ipv4?

[chrome pumice]

Not sure where its set but make sure it is NOT QEMU cpu.

[silver orbit]

correct outside your network they need to enter the IP from whatismyIP, you also need to on your firewall/router port forward the 7777 for TCP and UDP to the computer IP that is running the server

[latent valley]

I could maybe try making it a privileged container. That'd be less secure, but it shouldn't be a problem for a gameserver and maybe, if I'm lucky, it could fix the issue...

[tired ether]

I did do that.

[silver orbit]

the IP at the top is wrong

it need to be the IP of your computer that is running the server

[tired ether]

I erased part of it. That is the same IP listed on my computer if I do ipconfig. My ipv4 address

[chrome pumice]

I think the QEMU setting is when you spin up the vm from what I am reading not sure tho.

[silver orbit]

ok cool, it had the just .1 which is normall the gateway so just checking

[tired ether]

Even entering that address on her pc shows it is offline though.

[latent valley]

That would probably only apply to virtual machines and not to LXC containers, I guess.

[silver orbit]

did you do the Test-NetConnection with the local IP? the 192.168 IP ?

[tired ether]

got this: PS C:\Users\heath> Test-netConnection xxx.xxx.x.xxx -Port 7777 WARNING: TCP connect to (xxx.xxx.x.xxx : 7777) failed WARNING: Ping to xxx.xxx.x.xxx failed with status: DestinationHostUnreachable

[silver orbit]

somethign is blocking you wife's computer and your from talking.

[chrome pumice]

Yeah maybe that just the only thing I can think of other then just not good hardware. The game is also very single core heavy.

[silver orbit]

Do they both have a 192.168.1.X IP in ipconfig ?

[tired ether]

yes it is my ipv4

[silver orbit]

yea but they both have an IP on the network? 192.168.1.X

[analog vault]

hello.
Is there an option to switch off or adjust the automatic restart of dedicated servers every midnight?

[silver orbit]

yes

in the server settings in server manager

change it to 00:00

[tired ether]

Yes she also has an ip on the network. mine is .129 hers is .190

[chrome pumice]

Its a clock so 24 hours = midnight 12 hours = noon.

[hybrid dune]

@silver orbit I did the same thing 4 or 5 times. nothing changed. deleted the gportal server. started a new one. rinse and repeat. Here we are. youre a legend I love you

[silver orbit]

Sweet glad it is working!

[silver orbit]

the destination unreachable means they cant even see each other

[neon zenith]

Hey all, have people run into some issues where after the built in automatic restart happens from the server, the server doesn't come back online? Last night, my server automatically reset, but I needed to manually kill the task and spin it up again for others to re-connect.

Windows - Steam CMD

[silver orbit]

Do you have any Antivirus or any other security software installed ?

[tired ether]

no just a basic windows install. Nothing fancy. Would I need to set outbound rules in her firewall?

[silver orbit]

not unless you have it filter outbound is default all allowed

[sterile quiver]

Just looking for clarification, on the restart timer. is it the amount of hours between restart (interval), or the time to perform a restart (in hours like Military time)

[tired ether]

I might just say screw it and buy a server on some website.

[chrome pumice]

Military time its a clock even tho it says interval.

[silver orbit]

yea, Sorry man, without knowing exactly how things are configured for the network I am not sure what else to do

[tired ether]

No worries man. Thank you so much for helping me attempt to fix it. Really appreciate the time!

[silver orbit]

I swore I set mine to 0 and it doesnt auto restart anymore, but now I cant rememebr when I did it

[silver orbit]

No Problem!

[sterile quiver]

I keep getting interrupted at midnight, any other time of the early morning would suit all players. Thanks for the assist

Good to know that 0 works too

[silver orbit]

I know mine wasnt set to 0 from default and it def rebooted at midnight local server time

I changed it to 0, but like I said I cant rmemeber when I did it so I am not sure if it has been 24 hours

[sterile quiver]

I'll give 5am a crack, and see what happens in 4hours time. Time to end a 18hour session

[vital ibex]

Anyone else having random crashes on their dedi?

[silver orbit]

the server or the client crashing ?

[hollow epoch]

I still got a tickrate of 6 with 3players - i wanna cry

[dense vapor]

friendly reminder, always make off site backups in case you do something dumb to the server the game is hosted on. it will make you happy.

[vital ibex]

It seems that the server stops communicating on the network. I'm collecting logs so I can look at it more. But everybody seems to be getting a network error after a while.

[silver orbit]

Are you hosting on the same computer that your playing on ?

[covert shard]

Dumb question but has anyone here been able to set up their server with a CDN like CloudFlare and been able to create/join said server with a hostname (ex mygame.net)?

[silver orbit]

I use a custom domain for mine

[covert shard]

And it works alright?

[silver orbit]

Yea

[covert shard]

Nice ty

[vital ibex]

this is what one of the clients saw.

[covert shard]

One more question, did you notice any meaningful increase in latency when setting it up with a DNS-proxy instead of just having players connect directly via your WAN IP?

[vital ibex]

No we rent a dedicated box and host our own servers using TC admin as the manager.

[hollow epoch]

how are you guys able to play after tier 6, the game is unplayable beyond that because of lagg

[silver orbit]

Careful that has the server ip and port in it

[vital ibex]

Thanks let me redact

Not that it's that big of a deal I guess

[silver orbit]

I don't have a DNS proxy, I just did an A record to the server ip

[covert shard]

Oh right right you can't proxy the record otherwise it wont work

Thanks for reminding me I was wondering why it wasn't working for me lmao

[silver orbit]

Sounds like save file corruption, that is what happened to me

[silver orbit]

No problem

[timber warren]

I am having same issue as many I am running a home dedi in Ubuntu and service seems to be running but I dont see my game in browser

[silver orbit]

Use server manager to connect

[timber warren]

thats what im doing nothing shown

it seems to be up just nothing populating in server managert

What's the file I need to change to allow more than 4 players in 1.0? Wiki etc says "game.ini" but that doesn't seem to exist anymore, in the WindowsServer folder I have Engine.ini or GameUserSettings.ini - added to the latter and client still shows X/4.
Server is running on Windows

[silver orbit]

If you hit add server and type the infor in nothing shows?

[silver orbit]

It should be there it is on mine

[timber warren]

offline - server name pernding - not authenticated

[silver orbit]

What does it say on the right ?

[brave bridge]

Is your dedicated server a fresh install? I hadn't got it until 1.0, maybe you have an older file?

[timber warren]

server appears to be offline

[silver orbit]

Yes on a fresh install

[slow bloom]

Does anyone know or have a fix for the map markers not being loaded to clients?

[silver orbit]

I can double check Ina minute though

[timber warren]

mine is pre 1.0 but updates on every restart

[brave bridge]

Ah I was looking in the wrong place, was checking the install not the localappdata folder. Thanks for making me double check 😛

[sturdy gust]

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

[silver orbit]

No prob

[brave bridge]

"Current Players" on client still shows 0/4 though... is that just hardcoded? Will a 5th person be able to join?

[sturdy gust]

Reload the server

The number will increase in-game 🙂

[silver orbit]

Yea that change requires the server to restart

[brave bridge]

I restarted already. Hmm

[timber warren]

config files all last updated yesterday

[sturdy gust]

Your ini file may have been regenerated by the game. It's generally safer to use launch params instead

As locking the ini file prevents the server manager from persisting config changes

[brave bridge]

launch param worked. Thanks!

[sturdy gust]

Enjoy!

[silver orbit]

Verify that you opened 7777 TCP and UDP, 7777 TCP wasn't needed pre 1.0

[timber warren]

they r wide open

even disabled firewalls all ends and nothing

[plush granite]

Is there a way to limit or stop seeing all the warning log spam?

[timber warren]

i see config files updated but a few still have old settings in them i set

[sturdy gust]

@timber warren you can remove the query port, beacon port, and unattended flags from your service. They all do nothing

[sturdy gust]

Yes, you can set log params, see here: https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server/blob/main/run.sh#L49

Just accept it

It is a self sighed cert that is created on start up of the server

@timber warren assuming your server is on the same network, make sure you're connecting via the local IP

The remote IP will NOT work for you, if you're within the same network

[timber warren]

i am ssh and RDD

no issues there

WinSCP also

did you reload the fw daemon after making the edit ?

i rebooted dedi

sudo reboot

[silver orbit]

the linux server or the dedi server ?

o ok

try disabling the firewall and see if it works?

just to try it

[timber warren]

still failing

[silver orbit]

something is blocking it maybe there is a differnt firewall running on the server ?

you arent using docker are you ?

[timber warren]

im stumped on this one worked prior to 1.0 now nothing

im running as a service

[zealous badger]

what is the best way to set a domain name for my dedicated server address? I have a domain and I do set A record on cloudflare. NSlookup displays the right IP, but satisfactory cant seem to be able to connect.

[silver orbit]

how long ago did you make the A record ?

[zealous badger]

an hour ago mby? it should be working, since nslookup displays it correctly

direct connect via IP is working btw.

[silver orbit]

potentially depends on how fast it replicated everywhere.

[zealous badger]

hmmm. yeah. maybe that could be the case.

[silver orbit]

DM the domain name I will see if it resolves for me

@timber warren what IP are you adding to your server manager in-game?

[timber warren]

local

[sturdy gust]

And what message are you seeing in-game after adding it?

[timber warren]

and external non work

offline

[sturdy gust]

That's a UDP failure

So, your local machine can't reach your server's 7777/udp port

[silver orbit]

TCP is failing too

[sturdy gust]

Right, but 7777/udp is the primary issue to solve first

Because that's what the offline message is referring to

UDP is the game server, TCP is the API

[silver orbit]

What firewall are you using ?

[timber warren]

ubuntu stock

[sturdy gust]

@timber warren so you're using 192.168.1.132 in-game, right?

[timber warren]

correct

[silver orbit]

so ufw ?

[timber warren]

i just added 7777 udp rebooting server

[silver orbit]

do this

@timber warren could you run this on your server: lsof -i -n | grep Factory

[timber warren]

command ran

[sturdy gust]

Any output?

[timber warren]

nothing

[sturdy gust]

Run this: lsof -i -n | grep 7777

[timber warren]

ran no output

[sturdy gust]

Then your Satisfactory server isn't running

Check that your service is online

[silver orbit]

you ran this on the linux server and it still didnt work ?

sudo ufw disable

[shy storm]

What does changing tickrate on the server do?

[sturdy gust]

@silver orbit his server isn't running

ufw is configured correctly

[silver orbit]

ahh gotchya

missed that

my bad

[sturdy gust]

It's all good! 🙂

[silver orbit]

not sure what your asking

[shy storm]

Does it affect world speed like in Minecraft or server quality like TPS?

[sturdy gust]

Well, it's not binding to any ports. Double check your service configuration

Check to see if you start it manually if that works

Yeah, seems to be a common bug

it seems like its related to blocks that I am trying to delete but dont disappear properly

[sturdy gust]

Known issue, unfortunately

[timber warren]

rebooting

[tired ether]

Update: friends were able to connect from outside of the network so maybe it’s an issue with my wife’s PC.

[sturdy gust]

@timber warren to clarify, did you run lsof as root?

If not, you wouldn't get any output

So you'd need to sudo lsof -i -n | grep 7777

Just double checking that that isn't an issue here

[silver orbit]

it is something with the pc or the network yea

[timber warren]

[charred hound]

Hello, my question is where can I set the dedicated server not to use 192.168.1.x? but eg 235.69.126.140:7777 ?

[timber warren]

yes

[sturdy gust]

You don't need to do that, just port forward

[sturdy gust]

Huh. Are you running 1.0?

Could you send your Satisfactory server log?

[silver orbit]

you dont, you add a port forward on your router to the the IP the computer running the Dedi server. for both 7777 TCP and UDP

[charred hound]

But until now it was good external ipn until the 8 was updated

[silver orbit]

you need to allow 7777 TCP if it was working for update 8

[silver orbit]

that is the new port needed

[sturdy gust]

You're running an old version of Satisfactory, pre 1.0

That's why

You need to update

[charred hound]

do you need to open a new port? on the same

[sturdy gust]

7777/tcp and 7777/udp, nothing else is needed

[silver orbit]

same place you have 7777 UDP allowed

[timber warren]

how to force the update ssh

[charred hound]

I understand, but it was good until now, so now it's not good for him anymore?

[sturdy gust]

steamcmd +force_install_dir /home/mofojones/SatisfactoryDedicatedServer +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

[silver orbit]

they changed it with the 1.0 update

so you have to make the changes

7777 TCP was never required before 1.0

[sturdy gust]

@timber warren wait wait wait

You're calling FactoryServer.sh from your home directory?

It should be /home/mofojones/SatisfactoryDedicatedServer/FactoryServer.sh

According to your service file

[timber warren]

i need to update my service

?

[sturdy gust]

Yeah

[charred hound]

that is, if I open them, it will be fine with the IP address mentioned above?

[silver orbit]

yea you are calling the .sh file from a different directory than the one that is getting updated

Hey, I just need confirmation as I think I'm going insane searching: are there no in-game tools available to dedicated server admins other than mods?

[timber warren]

your the fucking man

Wolv it works brother

[silver orbit]

there is Server Manager

[sturdy gust]

Fuck yeah! Glad to hear it man, enjoy!!

[timber warren]

i owe u a drink

[silver orbit]

sweet!

[timber warren]

but i need to go pick up wife ill be back ty again

[quick mist]

The APIs are pretty powerful tools

[candid haven]

that appears to only allow you to manage saves and execute the, what, five console commands?

[silver orbit]

there is also setting pane for changing settings

but if they arent on there yea there isnt an in-game tool for editing it

What are you trying to do ?

[candid haven]

transport a player. A pretty basic admin use-case

[silver orbit]

There has never been that type of command

you can look throught he API documentation but AFAIK that would be the only way it might be an option

or you would need a MOD

[candid haven]

That was my impression, just wanted confirmation. Much appreciated!

Hey ! I tried to join my friend who is on Epic Games and I'm on Steam (link epic game) and I got an error

Any solutions ?

[calm mist]

Is there a way to increase maxplayers on the dedicated server for 1.0??? I reid

[/Script/Engine.GameSession]
MaxPlayers=8

[sage badger]

Correct, I did this on my server

[calm mist]

@ian I tried it on 1.0 (running it in a docker)... says server full when we try to get a 5th in

[dry temple]

Hey there! I've been banging my head against a wall for the past few days and just have not figured out what is going on with hosting my game. I've got an Ubuntu server that has successfully hosted 20+ hours of gameplay on my LAN, but I wanted to enable my online friends to join my world. I've been following the instructions in https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers like a bible but I can't figure out what this error I'm getting even means. What's worse, the /Saved/Logs/ folder doesn't seem to be recording any logs since the 10th. A few notes if it's helpful:

• I've updated my satisfactory.service file to just be the ..FactoryServer.sh file. No additional arguments.
• I've allowed TCP and UDP port forwarding on my router
• I've enabled ufw and confirmed it's listening using ss and https://www.canyouseeme.org/. When I run https://<my.ipv4>:7777 I get the correct JSON reply
• I've added a config file to ufw in the applications.d specifically for Satisfactory

In the attached video, the top server connection is LAN and is able to access the game without issue. The start of video is me accepting the certificate. Clicking the "Authenticate" button does nothing and every few seconds I get the notification "Connection to the Server has been lost".

[calm mist]

@sage badger I tried it on 1.0 (running it in a docker)... says server full when we try to get a 5th in

LOL typo

[sage badger]

You may have added to the wrong ini file

[dapper estuary]

I'm new to the discord server, who wants to play a game?

[quick mist]

try #1201555265942724758

[calm mist]

@sage badger DO oyu know iif the server will change to show 0/8 or stay at 0/4

[sturdy gust]

Use the environment variable

It'll change the number in-game according to the value you set

[dapper estuary]

Th

[sturdy gust]

If the variable isn't working, you need to upgrade your image

[sage badger]

It changes to 0/8

[calm mist]

Where is the Enviornement variable, is that in the docker setup menu?

[sturdy gust]

https://github.com/wolveix/satisfactory-server?tab=readme-ov-file#environment-variables

[regal solstice]

Our dedicated server has been crashing on every auto-save after last nights session and today and late last night I have not been able to make it past a single auto-save point. Prior to that, it would periodically crash on an auto save but it was not consistant like it is now. Any idea what might be causing this?

[sturdy gust]

Seems to be an issue for some people. Verify that your permissions are fine

They probably are, to be clear

[regal solstice]

sorry permissions to what? I'm running it via SteamCMD on windows* a separate PC (local to me, remote to others)

[calm mist]

@jan working on it now

[sturdy gust]

The permissions for the directory that the saves are stored in

[regal solstice]

gotcha

[sturdy gust]

If you send your Docker run/Docker Compose, I can show you where the environment variable is

[chrome pumice]

Having not read anything of this conversation it could be the Game.ini not being auto created.

[novel vapor]

so I'm trying to set up a server using steamcmd and honestly I have no idea what I'm doing. I've never done anything like this and I got by using a youtube tutorial. I managed to get the server running but when one of my friends tries to join it says that the server appears to be offline. How do I fix this?

[sturdy gust]

It wouldn't matter for Docker

Since it passes the config changes via launch params, not by modifying the ini files

As ini files will break either in-game state changes, or your own changes won't persist

[chrome pumice]

If it doesn't create the file by itself then it will disregard the command. At least from what I have seen.

[sturdy gust]

Firewall/port forwarding issue I suspect 🙂 Make sure that both ports 7777/tcp and 7777/udp are allowed

[sturdy gust]

I haven't noticed that 😮 If so, Game.ini would be created when you first save the game

I believe that's the trigger

[sage badger]

The only issue we are experiencing with the dedicated server is the 'out of memory' warnings.
Apparently this is not new to 1.0, but unfortunately hasn't ever been fixed.

[sturdy gust]

I've never come across that, despite hosting various Satisfactory server instances over the last 4 years 😮

Windows-only bug, maybe?

[chrome pumice]

Not exactly the only way I know to force it is to quit command on the server manager console.

[novel vapor]

would that be on the router? I did set up inbound rules in windows firewall

[sturdy gust]

Yes, port forwarding is through your router 🙂

[fading quarry]

Not a whole lot to do about running out of memory the game consumes more memory as the save grows. A large save uses around 18-24GB RAM.

[dry temple]

Bumping. Not sure if anyone has seen this before but would love some ideas.

[sage badger]

But there is plenty of memory available on the server.

[sturdy gust]

Send your launch command 🙂

[sturdy gust]

Try enabling server streaming:

-ini:Engine:[ConsoleVariables]:wp.Runtime.EnableServerStreaming=1

[fading quarry]

Reserved by other services perhaps.

[dry temple]

ExecStart=/home/steam/SatisfactoryDedicatedServer/FactoryServer.sh unless you mean sudo systemctl start satisfactory.service.

[sturdy gust]

Thanks 🙂 To be clear, have you had friends attempt to join? As local connections via a remote IP either cause issues, or flat out doesn't work (specifically with Satisfactory, yes I know it works for other games)

[dry temple]

Yes, but not in the past hour 🤔 Maybe some of my fixes went through. I can report back 🫡

[sturdy gust]

Yes, please do!

[dry temple]

🤦🏼‍♂️ Well, they can get in now 🤣 Thank you!

[karmic plaza]

i'm getting tons of client sync issues with my server. specifically when i deconstruct foundations, they don't disappear properly until i disconnect and reconnect, and even then it's still sometimes not quite right. :(

[sturdy gust]

Known issues I'm afraid

[karmic plaza]

i turned the network quality up and restarted the server and it seems to be better now. not sure if it was the settings change or the restart that fixed it tho.

[charred hound]

Why is it that the server cannot load the old save?

[fluid inlet]

Hey all, not sure if anyone had attempted this yet or not but I just gave it a try. I created a second server manager profile for the server im hosting locally using my public IP rather than private to connect and connecting using that method did NOT crash the server after I disconnected

[bleak token]

I'm with a small hosting company which provides me with a Linux VPS. I've installed the dedicated server with steamcmd on the public branch and I'm starting it up normally (apart from changing the default port). I'm trying to load a 1.0 save that I started yesterday in sp but it doesn't work (the server crash instantly)

[opal owl]

try to create a new world with the new version
if that works, open your old save in a single player match and save it, then load that in your MP server again and it should work

[coral forum]

Hey is there someone who has already two gameservers running on one machine?

[rapid spindle]

What is the server architecture? x64, ARM?

It could also be a dependency issue. You might have to udpate libc.

[bleak token]

It's a KVM 64 bits. I already did an apt update/upgrade like 30 minutes ago.

i'll try the method of buddgaf

[bleak token]

it doesn't work :c

(same error)

[rapid spindle]

Did the server ever work on the VPS?

[tender thicket]

kvm doesnt work, ur hosting co would have to switch it to host mode or smth similar

U can make a ticket but the likelihood that they change it is prob low

[bleak token]

oh, I saw that this section had been removed from the wiki, so I thought it was no longer the case

[tender thicket]

It didnt work for me on my local machine, switching fixed it

[bleak token]

okok

[tender thicket]

its a known limitation of ue games

[patent jolt]

Still no fix for the port drop on disconnect? Does anyone know if linux has the same problem?

[tender thicket]

or unity

[topaz scarab]

are you confusing docker with kvm

[tender thicket]

whatever the games made from

[tender thicket]

he said kvm64

[nimble wraith]

Docker works fine ? The host mode swap for docker isn’t needed as of the update last week

[tender thicket]

like the cpu mode

[nimble wraith]

Yeah and unrelated to what he’s got going on xD

[tender thicket]

no? thats completely related?

[topaz scarab]

oh cpu type
prob some instruction support bs

[tender thicket]

If the virt host cpu is set to kvm64 then the reduced instruction set means the game cant launch

[nimble wraith]

I’m not referring to what you said Pete

[tender thicket]

Mbmb

[nimble wraith]

All good lol

[topaz scarab]

kvm64 has cpu flags at the level of Pentium 4
lmao your host is dum

[tender thicket]

lol

[topaz scarab]

yeah i wasn't familiar with it because it's so OLD

[tender thicket]

Completely unrelated but whats the most awkward/difficult game u guys have had to support

I c thats ur job

[hidden forge]

So, i'm kinda stumped. Got a reverse-proxy "working", i.e. Test-NetConnection, netcat (both TCP and UDP) and the webapi work over the proxy, but the game still says "server offline"
Any Ideas? Probably UDP, isn't it? any way beside netcat i can test udp?

[tender thicket]

reverse proxys not really designed for game servers is it?

Ik other ppl here have had problems with that

the game really really hates any form of redirection

[hidden forge]

reverse-proxy can be used for any traffic. i am useing it for minecraft e.g. but yeah, satis seems to hate it 😦

[frosty gale]

I need a kvm

Like one of those big dell ones

[deep turret]

not at all
except if you confuse proxying with forwarding

[mighty wave]

Trying to workaround the bug causing the server to shut down if the admin on the same machine disconnects - according to the Q&A site a workaround is to connect as a non-admin using the public IP, but I'm not able to connect and join the game that way...

[topaz scarab]

eh server stuff tends to be shitty for fast single core

[nimble wraith]

Oh Pft easy, space engineers

[rapid spindle]

linux or windows? If linux, add your user as a lingerer

[deep turret]

you can relay UDP and TCP streams
but not using any mechanism/system specific type of proxying

[nimble wraith]

That game hates Wine when you throw mods at it lol

[tender thicket]

interesting

[topaz scarab]

check your port forward setting and enable nat loopback

[nimble wraith]

It wasn’t difficult to add, but fixing mod issues when they crop up can be a lengthy endeavor xD

[tender thicket]

lol, tickets aplenty

[nimble wraith]

You know it 🤣

[mighty wave]

windows. tried running on a separate ubuntu machine but couldn't get that to work

[rapid spindle]

or do you mean from the game? Like disconnects from the server with rdp, or from the game server?

[mighty wave]

if the admin on the same machine as the server leaves the game, the server dies, as described here: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/66e08561772a987f4a8a9d67

[autumn vector]

Is it possible to set "Keep Inventory" to "Keep Nothing" for everyone under Options -> Gameplay?
Currently, each person can switch it for themselves...

Thanks for the help! :)

[frosty gale]

Narr

But also narr

I'm running this on an r710

[topaz scarab]

gross

what's your idle wattage

[frosty gale]

And I meant keyboard video mouse

It's like 200w

[topaz scarab]

power's expensive here, otherwise my servers would be on more

[frosty gale]

It doesn't cost me a dime

And power is 0.086 $ per kilowatt

[topaz scarab]

... ~$0.50

[frosty gale]

I mean regardless I don't pay the power bill for it

[unreal crystal]

get some 100w panels and a battery; your servers now net neutral . my homelabs like 100-200w continuous; it'd be rough but close to doable.

[frosty gale]

Yea my entire lab is more like 700w

[unreal crystal]

mines 135watts; router; server; n switch all plugged into my battery.

[frosty gale]

I have a 900w battery for everything

It's not really enough

Maybe some day I'll install a 240v 30a outlet and get one of those Eaton pdus

[median zinc]

Yes, I love the game, but fucking hate the server.

[nimble wraith]

They get it

🤣

[median zinc]

it's so damned finicky.

[nimble wraith]

Yeah, adding wine to it doesn’t help at all 😅

[median zinc]

indeed not.

[nimble wraith]

We pray for a Linux build

..one day

😭

[unreal crystal]

explains why there's no linuxgsm for it

[median zinc]

last i heard Keen had -100% interest in making one.

I have been playing that game since it was Free in early, early alpha. it's grown in a lot of ways, but Linux is not one of them.

Unfortunetly.

[bleak token]

is openvz compatible ?

[nimble wraith]

Yeah it’s a pipe dream but I can hope lol

[dim mountain]

running it as a docker works on ubuntu just fine

[topaz scarab]

openvz's just containers, right
so prob depends whether the host machine is running on a pentium or not

[tender thicket]

No idea sorry

[calm mist]

@jan I am using UNRAID docker and do not see where to add the enviornemnt variable for maxplayers...

[dim mountain]

I would recommend everyone that wants to have an easy and enjoyable install to run satisfactory as a docker image on some docker manager (for example casaos) and follow the wolveix install instructions on docker hub. Literally one command line, a couple of settings like TCP/UDC + selecting a storage location. Literally that easy.

[calm mist]

I am using UNRAID docker and do not see where to add the enviornemnt variable for maxplayers...

[topaz scarab]

check your docker image's docs

[mighty wave]

might try that approach, I'm guessing its something with the firewall though since it works fine on my windows machine

[dim mountain]

isn't it capped at 4 players max?

[calm mist]

which wiki?

[topaz scarab]

which image are you running

[worldly jetty]

me and my friends are running a server and have been getting high ping, is this a known issue right now?

[tender thicket]

not necessarily
