dedicated-servers

[glossy island]

Server is up all day, and it happens to other players while one player is already inside

[grim mica]

Got it okay, yeah not normal to see that - first instance I've heard of that occurring and I'm here quite a lot

[glossy island]

It seems not to happen with a new save, that looks creepy

[glossy island]

It's not my first server on that machine an that never happened

But seems to be save related

[grim mica]

Was the save ever used with mods?

[glossy island]

No

[grim mica]

You can try to upload it to SCIM and just re-download it, maybe it can catch and fix something that is buggy?
Alternative would be to create a new save and blueprint your world with SCIM then import it again

[glossy island]

Srry SCIM?

[grim mica]

All of the milestones/progress would be reset but you can certainly import any stage of a factory into any save and just re-send the milestones/MAM/HDD research (could also just check them off in SCIM)

https://satisfactory-calculator.com

Has an interactive map that lets you manipulate your builds and the world progress in pretty much any way you can think of

[glossy island]

I'll try to do so

Thanks

[rose coral]

Hello can you help me server crashes when creating game

[grim mica]

Would have to see a server log file, ideally the crashcontext.xml to troubleshoot that

But first, are you using a VM to host it?

[rose coral]

NIXOS 24.11 VM

[light estuary]

hello guys do you know how i could find or rent a dedicated serv for satisfactory bc its kinda anoying when my friend isnt online i have to wait for him to connect to be able to play on the world

[vestal flax]

check the pinned messages: https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[sweet sedge]

There is an easy way too if it's just the two of you - send the save file back and forth :)

Cheaper than renting a dedicated server too

[light estuary]

Smart I’ll try that

Thanks people

[mossy grove]

I am trying to join my locally hosted dedicated server running experimental and am met with an infinite loading screen though I can hear behind it everything is loaded and working fine

[wide galleon]

i tried joining my local server and it somehow imported my character inventory and HUB progression from a different save file over to the brand new world, anyone know how to fix this? 🙏

[grand brook]

Alright friendos. My dedicated server is at a higher version than the game and I'm not sure how to resolve that. In it's current state there is a version mismatch and I can't join. I'd love to know how to fix this.

[solid ice]

Is your server running the experimental branch?

[grand brook]

So it was and I switched it to public and resolved the mismatch. I then had to delete the server settings to reset the admin password

[solid ice]

glad you got it resolved!

[grand brook]

Yeah thanks read through so many forums and articles and guides

[light estuary]

Does anyone know a good and legit place to rent a satisfactory server for my friends and I ?

[plush cedar]

Hey gang,

Updating my server, I noticed this on the patch notes :

This change requires you to open your current TCP Port (7777 by default) on top of the already open UDP port, you also need to port forward the same port as the game port (7777 UDP by default) +20000 TCP (27777 TCP by default)

I am a bit confused as to which port to forward, can someone ELI5 it to me ? I had 7777UDP/TCP forwarded, do I need to add something ?

[hollow depot]

You need to also Open the Port 27777 if you use the port 7777

If you have your Server on port 7788 you need to open 27788 too

so the Gameserver will use the port +20000 too

this can´t be changed currently, i brought this up in the last dev stream, Mikeal have note this because the port should be changeable

[wary cosmos]

latest notes about this here i think

#1349293663422779452 message

[low wharf]

Honestly I am suprised it doesn't have support for SRV records?

Ohh wait nvm, it will attempt to bind to that range, I thought the client would look at that range

[plush cedar]

it's a server on my local network though, shouldn't need portforwarding right ?

[rose coral]

Hello Is someone able to help here cause @grim mica isnt online eh I have a dedicated running on a NIXOS 24.11 VM and it crashes when trying to create a new savegame it has none installed so far just trying to create the first one

[glad nest]

sounds like permission issues if you ask me

[rose coral]

I am logged in as admin

[glad nest]

running the server as root? 👀

[rose coral]

yh on NIXOS 24.11 VM yh I have a private VM on a server with NIXOS 24.11 so I have root access to console and server in the server manager

so in server manager I am admin+

@glad nest

[glad nest]

try running ls -lah on your save folder, if its even created

only thing i can think of that is making sense is permissions tbh

[rose coral]

ok

ls -lah works

[glad nest]

and have you set the correct permissions...?

[rose coral]

this is what it spits out for ls -lah

launch.sh is just running steam-run FactoryServer.sh

[glad nest]

if you are not afraid of breaking anything...
chmod -R a+w .

[rose coral]

ok

chmod: missing operand after ‘a+w’ Try 'chmod --help' for more information.

[glad nest]

did you remember the . on end?

[rose coral]

now it does nothing it didnt give me an error or sth and new line

[glad nest]

probably what it were supposed to

do another ls -lah

[glad nest]

try your server again now

[rose coral]

ok

[glad nest]

now it shouldnt be permission issues atleast

[rose coral]

crash

@glad nest

her is full log

[glad nest]

hva user are you running the server as?

even more certain there is some permission funkyness going on

[rose coral]

mekacat

[glad nest]

out of ideas then

RAM/Storage/Permission

[full oar]

reinstall dedicated works maybe ?

[grim cloak]

Hi,
Is it possible to use domain\subdomain as hostname when connecting to a server? eg: server1.mydomain.com / port: 7777 | server2.mydomain.com / port: 8888
Having both on the same machine, using different ports.
I was trying to setup a Cloudflared tunnel but I'm not sure which protocol I should set there, tried TCP but does not seems to work :
Any advice on this? Thanks.

[rose coral]

nope

[full oar]

Yes u can configure CNAMES for server1 and server 2 with different subdomains on your DNS Provider.
U dont need Cloudflare Tunnels for this. Its only importend u change the Ports maybe all of these, Game / Query / Beaconport.
For the connect in the game set up the right port for the right cname.

[full oar]

what a machine is this ?

[rose coral]

NIXOS 24.11 VM

hit up @copper egret for more info

[hidden forge]

Subdomain only works for HTTP/S or if they are on different IPs. For Satis Server the ports are more important.
And you need both TCP and UDP

[full oar]

hm okaaay, my servers running on debian without permissions, startup or another issues.
why nixos ?

[rose coral]

cause its on the server and not mine and they decided

and its a crash on world load or creation

[copper egret]

because the person that is running the cluster decided it was a good idea, and it did work for everything we needed, up until now

[grim cloak]

I'm using the tunnels to avoid having to open ports on my side.
I've this working for other services\apps on my server.
This is where I set it up:

Service Type available are:
HTTP
HTTPS
UNIX
TCP
SSH
RDP
UNIX+TLS
SMB
HTTP_STATUS
BASTION

[hidden forge]

Then you can't use tunnels

[full oar]

NO UDP no Tunnel

Use an Wireguard VPN for access on your servers
pretty easy and minimal latency

[hidden forge]

Wireguard won't work over tunnel either btw

[full oar]

what u mean ? I simply meant using Wireguard instead of Cloudflare.

Why wouldn't that work? The VPN transmits both UDP and TCP packets?

[grim cloak]

no need, server is local.
I just don't want to open\expose ports, and I don't want to expose\share my WAN IP.

[full oar]

then configure your dns local u dont need to access any dns on web

[hidden forge]

Wireguard for general traffic works
I meant WireGuard specifically over a cloudflare tunnel because it uses UDP too

[grim cloak]

using that setup, even if you resolve the subdomain\domain you don't get to my wan ip because it gets "masked" on CF.
that's all I need

[full oar]

Completely irrelevant: If you don't want external access to the Satisfactory server, you don't need to use any settings from Cloudflare or any other online service.

Adjust the local DNS settings and point to the correct server via subdomain + port.
Why should the WAN IP be leaked if there is no DNS entry on the root servers?

[grim cloak]

I want users\players to join the server, and for that I need to give them my server WAN IP, which I don't feel safe doing.

[full oar]

So not just local after all...

[grim cloak]

for me and other player it's local, for other 3\4 it's remote

[full oar]

maybe help this, that can raw udp and tcp packets.
https://github.com/fosrl/pangolin

[idle flower]

1.1 broke my ability to connect to my dedi. Now I just get this error.

[grim cloak]

did it already completly started? what's on console log?

[idle flower]

yes, its already fully started. I'm using pterodactyl panel. Let me re-log and see if I can catch the error from the console.

[grim cloak]

ill have a look at it. I'm using https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared atm

[full oar]

As I said, it won't help you because it doesn't support the UDP protocol.

Tailscale, Pangolin, etc., can be used if you configure them.

The most you could do is give the server a second NIC, meaning a different IP, and then point server 1 to the first IP and server 2 to the other.
I don't know if that would work.

[idle flower]

ahhh I missed the patch notes. I had to add port 8888 into the allocation and assign it to the satis server in pterodactyl panel too.
#patch-notes message

[low wharf]

Currently setting up the server, I will say, I do kinda dislike the server being managed via the ingame GUI, especially with hosting it in my homelab it's really nice to just be able to connect after configuring it there. but besides that pretty nice

[plush cedar]

yup I just came to the same conclusion : added 8888:8888/tcp to my docker compose file and now I can log into the game

  satisfactory-server:
    container_name: 'satisfactory-server'
    hostname: 'satisfactory-server'
    image: 'wolveix/satisfactory-server:latest'
    ports:
      - '7777:7777/udp'
      - '7777:7777/tcp'
      - '8888:8888/tcp'
    volumes:
      - './satisfactory-server:/config'
    environment:
      - MAXPLAYERS=4
      - PGID=1000
      - PUID=1000
      - ROOTLESS=false
      - STEAMBETA=true
    restart: unless-stopped
    deploy:
      resources:
        limits:
          memory: 16G
        reservations:
          memory: 8G```

[low wharf]

I was able to connect it and start it, but it would get stuck on "starting landing sequence" or close to that, I just added 8888 TCP

Same setup as you in terms of docker compose

[mild thunder]

was just about to mod my pterodactyl setup to try

[plush cedar]

yeah same behavior, now it works with 8888 added

[low wharf]

YUP

immediatley worked

guess that whole 10 min of waiting was for nopt

[plush cedar]

should we remove 7777 now ?

Forward 8888 ? Locally it works, but I haven't tested for offsite friends 😉

[low wharf]

7777 is still used for control from what I can see

[low wharf]

8888 Seems to be the actual gameplay port, so I assume it's needed

[plush cedar]

ok, I filed an issue on wolveix github so he can check it out and fix the documentation accordingly

[low wharf]

Yee 😄

[sturdy gust]

Thanks for filing 🙂

[mild thunder]

yeah both ports #satisfactory-experimental message

[plush cedar]

thanks for making the docker 🙂

[sturdy gust]

From skimming the patch notes, it sounds like 8888 will be replacing 7777 as the default in the future?

[mild thunder]

nope, both ports

[sturdy gust]

Gotcha, thanks 🙂 The patch notes weren't too clear on this

[mild thunder]

yeah i asked in the other channel #satisfactory-experimental message

[sturdy gust]

I'll add the new port as configurable following the patch notes 🙏 Thanks!

[icy leaf]

Does someone know if i need to change the startup command if i use pterodactyl?
Currently i have this:
./Engine/Binaries/Linux/*-Linux-Shipping FactoryGame ?listen -Port={{SERVER_PORT}} -ServerQueryPort={{QUERY_PORT}} -BeaconPort={{BEACON_PORT}} -ReliablePort=8888 -multihome=0.0.0.0 $(if {{DISABLE_SEASONAL}}; then echo "-DisableSeasonalEvents"; fi)

[tawny shadow]

anyone else having problems creating a new world/save on the server? when i crate a new world the clients are stuck on a endless loading screen.
if i create a world on the client, save it und upload it to the server, it works just fine

[mild thunder]

my current startup command after manually adding the extra port is: ./Engine/Binaries/Linux/*-Linux-Shipping FactoryGame -Port={{SERVER_PORT}} -ReliablePort=8888

[icy leaf]

alright thank you

[mild thunder]

you will need to add the extra port via the allocation if you didnt already

[icy leaf]

i did but i got confused with the new port and added it as main port instead of 7777

[mild thunder]

i asked in the other channel to make sure what ports before i changed anything

[errant pumice]

I am also experiencing this issue, will try the local creation and upload.

[pliant stratus]

got this too

[errant pumice]

Local creation then upload works for creating a new save.

That saves me a lot of headache looking into connection issues. Thank you!

[pliant stratus]

Is 8888 the new server connection port replacing 7777? do i need to amend my dns records?

[mild thunder]

need both ports

[pliant stratus]

okay so allow 8888 on tcp and udp. server connection still on 7777?

[mild thunder]

#satisfactory-experimental message

[pliant stratus]

so i've lost external connection to my server for no reason. fun 😄

[mild thunder]

if it is remapped to different port via nat, then looks like another flag on the startup has to be used

[lament dawn]

What is the best Host Provider for a satisfactory server ?

[supple heath]

Hello, since when the 8888 ports is needed ?

[rose coral]

Does someone know eh should I run a dedicated on nixos lr does it not work amd @supple heath only for experimental servers since last update

[civic chasm]

can i make a dedicated s erver for experimental?

[supple heath]

I host at home my own DS but I lost the access from external network

I've just added the 8888 port on my firewall I'll try

BOY IT WORKED !!

Who I need to kiss !?

[civic chasm]

ah nvm

does anyone know why i get this issue when making a new experimental server

[quasi chasm]

missing file permissions

what command is this? The steamcmd install?

[wary cosmos]

7777 udp also needed ? or just only tcp ?

[quasi chasm]

it's both I'm pretty sure

[civic chasm]

im using a hoster, im nto running it locally on my computer

[supple heath]

I have UDP/TCP 7777 and UDP/TCP 8888

[quasi chasm]

well, can you show more of the log?

[supple heath]

7777 for Stable and 8888 for Experimental I guess

[quasi chasm]

probably an issue with the hosting provider, ask them

[low wharf]

It’s 7777 UDP and TCP, and 8888 tcp

[civic chasm]

even for experimental?

because im hosting two servers with the same port then

[clear steppe]

whyy is it 100GB for me????????

[quasi chasm]

if you can open a console yourself try executing chmod u+x /steam/FactoryServer.sh

[civic chasm]

i will try

[clear steppe]

??

[quasi chasm]

ok well, I dunno. Game server host is messing something up I guess. Seems like it fails to download the game

you can't choose where it installs at all?

[civic chasm]

uhh

no

[royal dove]

In Windows you can though. 😛 Not sure with Linux based things.

[quasi chasm]

You can, but the game server host is taking over that part "to make it easier"

only something probably broke on their end with experimental?

[spiral pulsar]

i ran the dedicated server and it went so well, but now im having problems with my ENTIRE server crashing, like so bad that it doesnt awsner to pings anymore 💀

[royal dove]

Did you try to turn it off and on again? :p

[versed rune]

Testing port 8888 it appears they moved the Control Line off the same port number from the TCP port for connection

[spiral pulsar]

well im pretty much forced to since the OS itself crashed 💀

[mild thunder]

ports for experimental #satisfactory-experimental message

[fallow lantern]

I'm guessing the linux experimental build for 1.1 isn't live yet?

[mild thunder]

its live, i have it running on my server

[fallow lantern]

Ah weird I restarted the service and it's working now, thanks!

[plush cedar]

THIS. Also people need to open 8888 TCP on your router if they self host

[wet adder]

server crashes alot for me (dedicated win server) for new 1.1. anyone else having issues?.. gotta get the log and post in the Help channel i guess? 🙂

[tawny shadow]

yeah same issue, fresh world and 2 crashes so far within 1 hour of gameplay

[wet adder]

doing fresh start myself.. 3 crashes so far ...

[grim mica]

Are the crashes when doing the same thing or seemingly random? New or exisitng world?

[tawny shadow]

seemingly random

[grim mica]

Can you read the log/crash context? At least in the past you could tell what subsystem was causing the crash, just curious if its obvious in there

[low wharf]

Don't need to open it on the router if you are connecting locally, but if you are connecting from outside yes(my current server is running locally cuz for now it's just for me)

[tawny shadow]

https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/67ec14056b7c573196362460

made a post here with 2 crashlogs

[low wharf]

but atleast 8888 TCP and 7777 TCP/UDP need to be available, wether you are on the same LAN, or have to port forward it if outside of it

yes, I assumed (wrongly) that people self hosting would do it for them and their friends, but sur in you are on your lan there is no need for forwarding.

[grim mica]

Oh jeez.. the networking system both crashes are basically the same though

[low wharf]

Some people also use tailscale or similar solutions

[grim mica]

Are you both on Linux?

[tawny shadow]

yeah, ubuntu

1.0 was running fine

[grim mica]

How about @wet adder?

Well.. they obviously significantly changed the networking system between 1.0, old exp (as of yesterday) and 1.1 exp.. all 3 have tweaks to them with 1.1 being the most changes by far

[grim mica]

And getting the same thing on Windows, so at least not OS specific

[smoky horizon]

Just wanted to say thank you for the port 8888 thing, resolved my issue 🙂

[wet adder]

Windows... made a post in the questions-and-help section with callstack and error message..

[lusty olive]

I am able to crash the server by simply sending trash data to 8888/tcp (/dev/urandom to port 8888 via nc). I guess there's some missing validation in the new RealiableMessaging stack

Even a simple scan-and-send-small-data portscan can crash the server lol.

[haughty zodiac]

we switched our dedicated to experimental but we are not able to join, or lets say, we join and "hear" the other one joining/leaving but screen stucks in the loading process

it does work when we create a new save game

[mild thunder]

make sure to have the new port open as well #satisfactory-experimental message

[haughty zodiac]

@Macie we did open the port but didnt help and with a new savegame everything works
just with our 1.0 savegame, we have this issue :/

[quasi peak]

Any idea how to add in the second port of 8888 to a truenas app? Is there an environmental variable we can define?

[mellow vapor]

Hi did someone of you already found a workaround for the dedi server crash in 1.1?

[lusty olive]

did some dirty shit and blocked all traffic via iptables / ip6tables except for the legit players. not nice, but I don't see any other workaround for now until Coffee Stain Studios has solved the issue

[mellow vapor]

Ok hmm, a bit annoying but at leasts its not crashing every 2 minutes xd

[lusty olive]

since I am running everything in Docker on my host (and use network_mode: host for the satisfactory server too), I built this small website (link to GitHub) to allow the players to grant access on their own. use with caution, only tested on my system, I do not guarantee for anything and will not give any support for this project. If you understand what this is doing, feel free to use it.
https://gist.github.com/sinuscosinustan/311a17dccdb7d5c2f9b80cc9be179242

[plush cedar]

you need to add 8888 tcd, see my message here (I use docker compose) : #dedicated-servers message

[pine urchin]

I've found that setting -ReliablePort=NNNN causes the game server to bind only to IPv4. If you want IPv6 to work, consider dropping this option.

[haughty zodiac]

@plush cedar no success but it does work on a new savegame :/

[plush cedar]

weird, have you rebooted the server (I assume you did but just in case)

[haughty zodiac]

yes and the client multiple times 😦

[plush cedar]

it's the exact same behavior I got though (see messages earlier today)... and the 8888 thing fixed it instantly.

[haughty zodiac]

the old save game does work locally
a new save game does work on the dedicated server

but our 1.0 savegame does bring the issue with being stuck in loadingprogress

[plush cedar]

yup, that's what I had too, maybe something is wrong with your port ?

[haughty zodiac]

we will try an older save game just in case

but if the port is wrong, shouldnt it also be broken with a new savegame?

i guess theres not a thing like "if you have space elevator, you need port 8888" 🙂

[plush cedar]

That's a good question, I don't know it seems all kind of weird this port shenanigan

it's running on linux ? installed how ?

[haughty zodiac]

ubuntu, via steam cmd, no virtualization
just tried a very old save (from ficsmas) it works

we try some other older saves

a savegame from february is not working 😦
christmas version works

[mild thunder]

my 1.0 solo save would toss my server into a error loop, that i would have to force restart the docker container, but it would load the 1.0 save on the restart

[haughty zodiac]

the server does not give errors, it is just that the client does "progress" the loading for ever
we even head the cassette player and the working machines :S

[fresh saddle]

My dedicated server crashes quite often now...
LogWindows: Error: appError called: Assertion failed: false [File:D:\BuildAgent\work\78a794e88763017d\UE4\FactoryGame\Plugins\ReliableMessaging\Source\ReliableMessaging\Public\ReliableMessagingProtocol.h] [Line: 478]

If its not a know issue, should i file a report of some sort or is this known already?

Experimental branch...

[lusty olive]

already reported, see the messages above.

[sturdy gust]

sigh thanks for the heads up!

[quasi peak]

Hey Wolveix. I'm using your docker container through my TrueNAS server. Thanks for pushing the updates so quickly this morning. The app hasn't been updated to point to the new docker container though. Do you know if there is a way to force the update?

[sturdy gust]

Hey! No problem 🙂 You can either manually set your image tag to v1.9.7, or force a pull. I don't have much experience with TrueNAS myself, so I'm unfamiliar with how to force image pulls there

But changing the tag should work no problem, just remember that it'll rebuild the container with the new image, so make sure your binds have been configured correctly to avoid data loss

[quasi peak]

Thanks! Yeah, it seems like the problem is on the TrueNAS side. Forcing updates like that seems to be a pain.
Do you know if there is an environment variable we can set to add the new port? The TrueNAS interface lets you easily do 1 port, but multiple funcitonality seems to be missing.

[sturdy gust]

I added an environment variable so that it's configurable, but you don't want to adjust that. You should just be able to just publish the port within the TrueNAS config alongside your two existing ports (you should have 7777/tcp, 7777/udp, and 8888/tcp)

[quasi peak]

Yeah, that seems to be my issue. The TrueNAS interface will allow you to do one port (combining tcp/udp), but not add another numerical port

[sturdy gust]

That can't be right 😱

[prisma hazel]

anyone know how to make rented servers work i have 6 ppl waiting for the 1.1 today lol

i can access my control panel but no one can get pased the loading screen

i know the new port that was added for the elevator is the problem but i cant seem to find how to add the port

[mild thunder]

probably got to open a support ticket with your host

[quasi peak]

I could be wrong. But the interface through the "Apps" won't let you enter anything besides one number. No commas, colons, etc.

[pine urchin]

Can you add a second entry alongside the first?

[quasi peak]

No, there is no way to add a delimeter.

This is why I was asking if there was an environmental variable I could set

[pine urchin]

No, I mean a whole separate network configuration entry, e.g. as if for a different game.

[hearty goblet]

err, i had to open up both tcp and udp for 7777 and 8888 to get my server working

[lucid halo]

im trying to run a dedacated server on the experimental branch, I have ports 7777, 8888, and 15777 open but i keep getting this error
NotifyAcceptingConnection accepted from: [::ffff:47.231.143.138]:15598
The server dose show up in the server manager but if i try to join it just loads indefinatly (i let it try for over 2 hours)

[frigid crown]

Hi Sorry if this has been discussed (there are a lot of posts today) but running experimental on a dedicated server but when we load into the server/map, the loading screen never goes away but the audio in the background is the game and I am hearing myself spawned on the map. This a known thing or is there a workaround? Like I said, sorry if this has been asked a few times.

[sturdy gust]

Port 15777 hasn't been used since 1.0, for 7777 make sure you have both TCP and UDP open

[lucid halo]

i do have tcp and udp

[lucid halo]

mine is the same sitaution

[quasi peak]

Ahh interesting. Not in this UI. But I'll look into a workaround to do that.

[vapid token]

Was just dropping in to say the same, infinite loading screen

[lucid halo]

i was haveing this issue before 1.1 dropped too

[sturdy gust]

Check if it the issue persists with stable rather than experimental. If it does, you have a config issue

If it doesn't, it's likely a bug with the experimental build

[lucid halo]

stable boots fine

[sturdy gust]

Likely an issue with experimental then. I haven't been following the channel too heavily since experimental released, but there's a good chance others have already experienced the same

[vapid token]

Better question, has anyone here logged into an experimental server today, successfully?

[sturdy gust]

If you're trying to load with an existing save, try a fresh save instead

[lucid halo]

ill try

[sturdy gust]

Yes, they have

[mild thunder]

yeah i have been on an experimental server today

[vapid token]

Was it a fresh world?

[mild thunder]

i loaded a fresh world, and my solo 1.0 save, though that took a restart to get working

[tranquil acorn]

Same here

[vapid token]

Yeah seems to be a bunch of us

[tranquil acorn]

I can load my game on single player no problem, but dedicated server just sits at load screen. Server says I'm logged in.

[sturdy gust]

Try a fresh save 🙂

Likely a bug

[lucid halo]

the issue is persisting on a fresh save for me

[mild thunder]

the solo 1.0 save i loaded to my server, made it go into an error loop, but it would load it up on startup

it would scroll the console so fast i had to screen shot it to see the errors

[tranquil acorn]

Does this mean anything to anyone? Not sure if helpful or normal errors.

[lucid halo]

mine just says NotifyAcceptingConnection accepted from: [::ffff:47.231.143.138]:15598 over and over

[sturdy gust]

Possibly an issue with your port 8888 config?

How are you hosting the server?

[vapid token]

Same thing here

[mild thunder]

i have those and can get in

[tranquil acorn]

Ah ok so not so useful errors then

[lucid halo]

im running the deticated server from epic games on a windows pc

[tranquil acorn]

(for us at least)

[frigid crown]

Tried a new map too ... same issue

[sturdy gust]

Yeah, most of the errors can be discarded

[sturdy gust]

Are you trying to join on the same system? From within the same network? Remotely?

If local, are you using the local IP, or your network's external IP?

[vapid token]

There it is

[frigid crown]

I have a ded server box. Tried LAN and WAN. And no issues with 1.0

[sturdy gust]

And you've configured port 8888/tcp?

[quasi peak]

People were saying infinite loading screen is due to not having both ports (7777 and 8888) open.

[lucid halo]

im tring to join on a seprate pc in a setrate state, im using the external ip, i know the ip is corect cause it worked on the normal

[frigid crown]

let me open 8888

[sturdy gust]

You should use the internal IP

[lucid halo]

i have both open

[frigid crown]

is 8888 a new port?

[sturdy gust]

Yep, that's what I figured

Almost all the issues in this channel are due to network configs 😄

[sturdy gust]

Yes

[quasi peak]

And you have it forwarded through your router?

[lucid halo]

yes

[sturdy gust]

Use the local IP. Satisfactory does not support local to external connections well at all. Regardless of whether it's worked for you in the past

[lucid halo]

alrite, ill try

[vapid token]

I pay for a server with Bisect. I logged on successfully not 2 hours ago into a 1.0 save. Only change was 1.1 install on both ends

[frigid crown]

is 8888 changeable?

[sturdy gust]

Assuming port 8888/tcp isn't configured on their end as it's new. There's your problem

[tranquil acorn]

This did the trick for me

I opened UDP/TCP 8888

[sturdy gust]

Yep, -ReliablePort param

[frigid crown]

Opening the port 8888 worked!!

[sturdy gust]

Always the way lol

[frigid crown]

I can connect via WAN

[sturdy gust]

Enjoy!

[frigid crown]

Thank you!

[lucid halo]

it just says no server running when i try the internal ip

[sturdy gust]

Then you have a problem 🙂

[quasi peak]

You all are connecting through the in-game "server manager" with 7777, correct?

[lucid halo]

yes

[frigid crown]

I have 2 servers. one is 7777 and one is 7778. Both work 1.0

same box

[sturdy gust]

Double check your network config 🙏

[lucid halo]

i have both sets of ports open

[sturdy gust]

Is the server Windows or Linux? Did you allow the port through the system's local firewall, in addition to your router's?

[lucid halo]

windows, and we use this pc for servers a lot so the firewall isnt blocking that

[sturdy gust]

Well, something is blocking the connection 😄 Just double check every failure point, the system's own firewall, your networking configuration, etc.

I know it's frustrating, but it's a networking issue and nothing else. You can do a port scan from your local machine to the server within your network to verify whether each port is accessible and accepting packets

[mild thunder]

using the default ports or are any of them remapped as other ports?

[lucid halo]

Default ports

[mild thunder]

did you check the console to verify that it bound the the ports alright?

[lucid halo]

How would I do that?

[mild thunder]

is it running as a service or in a console window that you keep open?

[lucid halo]

Console window, running from the dedicated server app on epic

[mild thunder]

not sure about epic, but from steam, in the console window you can read that it binds to the ports for instance:

and about 4 lines up from that i saw it started the listener on port 7777

[mild thunder]

since it looks like it bound to both ports, need to double check every device between your computer and the server then that both ports would be open

[lucid halo]

The computer firewall let's them through, and they are open on the router

This time instead of staying in the loading screen forever it kicked me

[livid tiger]

Ticket

Conversation has been moved to a ticket (#1356753479208534036)

Powered by ticketsbot.cloud

[thorny gust]

we have the same problem, any solutions yet?

[vapid token]

Tons of us are having issues

Methinks dedicated is fubar'ed for the time being

[thorny gust]

i guess so

[lucid halo]

I've been having this issue on experimental since before 1.1 is the annoying thing

[nimble wraith]

Required changes in the config / startup from what I can see. Pushed out a image to handle the cfg/startup which let me in (atleast from what I could tell hah)

[vapid token]

Oh shoot, hahaha

How to implement? Restart with validate enabled?

@nimble wraith, and thank you!!

[nimble wraith]

Should just need to boot the server (or restart it), so long as the server is setup with Experimental as the Beta ID itll edit the cfg/update the startup command

no problemo 🫡

[supple acorn]

when i try and join my friends server it says wrong game version but im running the newest ver not bata ver so is it a server thing or a client side problum?

[nimble wraith]

looks like the server is running experimental n you arent

[supple acorn]

how would i fix that in the server config?

[idle flower]

These server crashes on 1.1 are fuuuuuuun

[idle flower]

https://tenor.com/view/waiting-family-guy-seth-mac-farlane-stewie-can-not-sleep-gif-6884780519234445417

[nimble wraith]

Depends on the host / how its being ran, essentially the server needs taken off the experimental branch. But I can only really guide ya in terms of what our panel uses 😅 everyones different

The easier thing, is just put your client on 1.1 experimental

[supple acorn]

fair i want to switch to bisect cuz thats what i usse for minecraft

[cloud idol]

Has anyone figured out the dedicated servers infinite loading screen glitch

[daring swan]

@sturdy gust I am facing issues (messaging port not open, endless loading screen) when assigning any other than the default messaging port.

I assigned port 8889 instead.

When searching the server logs one thing popped up:
LogInit: Command Line: -Port=7778 -ReliablePort="8889". Should there be "" around the -ReliablePort value (compared to the -Port value)?

The following log line also is only present if I have left the default port value [ 0]LogReliableMessaging: Server streaming socket bound to port 8888 but is missing when a different port value is specified.

(using 1.9.7 )

[sour dirge]

Did anyone resolve the stuck loading screen issue of 1.1?

[quasi peak]

@sour dirge

[sour dirge]

ah, 8888 must be an experimental branch thing.

I changed the default port for my server

[lyric nest]

So I am on the dedicated server

And auto-connecting blueprints seems borked.

[cloud idol]

Server changed my server port to 8888 still not working

Has someone found a way to play 1.1 on dedicated servers?

[sour dirge]

If you're linux, don't forget to update linux rules

[cloud idol]

Where and how do I do that?

[sour dirge]

are you on ubuntu or something else

[cloud idol]

Host havoc currently i do have a evlbox server too

Is it a script line I need to add to gameini?

[sour dirge]

for mine, I had to update UFW. I use Ubuntu

[cloud idol]

What is that

[sour dirge]

It's the linux firewall

installed by default on Ubuntu

if you didn't use it, don't worry about it.

>>>>Updating my firewall to allow port 8888 fixed the loading screen issue<<<<

[cloud idol]

I had host havoc change my default port to 8888

[sour dirge]

Update: the server randomly changed it's own ports up one port. Don't know why.

[kind atlas]

Installed satisfactory (experimental 1.1) server via steamcmd on a windows server instance. Set up a game and everything but I can't seem to find the game.ini or serversettings.ini file anywhere. Looked in localappdata and the install directory. Do I need to create those ini files? -- I have the server running and I and my remote friends may join, but I just want to increase the player limit

[cloud idol]

So it's at 8889?

[sour dirge]

I restarted the linux process and it's back to 8888 / 27777

(27777 was my non-default choice)

It uses both.

[cloud idol]

And it's working?

[sour dirge]

Yes

you can use ss -plnut to see which ports are in use by linux

[cloud idol]

Ss-plnut?

[sour dirge]

sudo ss -plnut

[sturdy gust]

Per the patch notes, it'll do that if it can't bind to port 8888

[cloud idol]

I'll try another server update

[sour dirge]

and update your firewall rule to include both ports

[sturdy gust]

Fixed the custom port config, but it sounds like you have a connection issue between your container and your client. Make sure you're explicitly opening 8888/tcp on the container's host

[cloud idol]

How do I do that

[sour dirge]

the same way you did when you setup your dedicated server to begin with. On your router's Firewall page, plus locally on windows or linux

[cloud idol]

Sorry for all the questions this is frustrating I have 3 people waiting on me

[sturdy gust]

@cloud idol sounds like you have a managed service. You don't need to change your server's defualt port from 7777, they need to open 8888 in addition to 7777

Only Host Havoc can do this for you

[cloud idol]

I never touched my firewall

[sour dirge]

ohhhhhhh. He's using a service

[cloud idol]

Ohbthay makes sense so I need 7777 and port forward to 8888

[sturdy gust]

Yeah, you need 7777/tcp, 7777/udp, AND 8888/tcp opened for the experimental release

This is new for the experimental release, so most providers won't have implemented this on their ends yet

Open a support ticket, and explain this to them. They should be able to open 8888/tcp for you (make sure they reset the original port back to 7777 for you too)

[cloud idol]

Ok ill try that. This is too much why did they do this

[sturdy gust]

Yeah, it's frustrating, but they wouldn't have done it if they didn't need to 🙂 I generally wait for the release to leave experimental, as experimental is typically unstable + may introduce new configurations like this

[cloud idol]

Yeah

[languid marsh]

how do i update my server version to latest experimental?

[sour dirge]

Which OS is the server on

[languid marsh]

windows

[sour dirge]

My server on linux just incorrectly went up one port again. 27777 and 8888 to 27778 / 8889

[sturdy gust]

If you're restarting it quickly, it's likely failing to bind at first

[mild thunder]

it goes up a port if the port supposedly is in use

[sturdy gust]

Depends how you're running it

[sour dirge]

There was no restart, it just randomly did it while I was connected to it

[sturdy gust]

Definitely shouldn't do that lol

[sour dirge]

udp looks fine, tcp did a goof

[sturdy gust]

Possibly a bug, hard to say

[daring swan]

Wow that was quick, just pulled the updated image, tried again with my custom port 8889.

Port is open and reachable and logging of the server now states [ 0]LogReliableMessaging: Server streaming socket bound to port 8889

Many thanks

[sour dirge]

my ufw setup

[sturdy gust]

Sorry about that! I added a workaround to handle the server incorrectly only binding to IPv4 when specifying a custom messaging port, but left quotation marks in when doing so. Thanks for catching it!

[sour dirge]

Anyone got ideas what could make the beta version kill its own port config like this?

also, anyone know where I can manually change the ports? I want to try a port different from 8888

Part of me wonders if the game is confused by me running the server in a VM on the same pc that then connects as a client

[mild thunder]

depending on how you start the server, you would be able to add the ports to the command or the startup script

[sturdy gust]

Per the patch notes, use the -ReliablePort= CLI argument. Running on the same system, even in a VM, could certainly explain the issue depending on your VM's networking configuration

[sour dirge]

Is this something configurable outside of docker? sorry, I thought it was a docker thing. I'll look into the patch notes, thank you for that

[sturdy gust]

Yes, that's the normal command line argument 😄

Do note that using that argument forces it to bind to IPv4 only

[sour dirge]

hmm

How does this command line work when the game is currently demanding two ports?

[sturdy gust]

How do you currently run your server?

[sour dirge]

port 27777. Beta is demanding both 27777 and 8888. Ran as a service via ubuntu in a VM

On production, 8888 is not used

[sturdy gust]

What does your service config look like?

[sour dirge]

one sec

I use systemd

straight from the wiki

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

I'm guessing the CLI goes in that file?

/etc/systemd/system/satisfactory.service

[sturdy gust]

So you can just append additional arguments on the ExecStart line 🙂

[sour dirge]

Okay awesome, thank you

dumb q, but using + instead of -, yes?

since that seems to be the syntax systemd steamcmd wants

[sturdy gust]

No, you're looking at the SteamCMD command

Should be exactly -ReliablePort=8888 😄

[sour dirge]

sweet

[sturdy gust]

But with whatever port you want

[sour dirge]

thank ya

I'll give that a shot later tonight. I did a tricky work-around via a 2nd set of firewall rules

(I now also portforward the local port alongside the WAN port to the vm, lol)

[sturdy gust]

😄

[sour dirge]

well after learning about docker, I should probably just use docker, lol

I have zero usage for the rest of my linux vm

[prisma hazel]

Anyone know how to get passed the loading screen for rented exp servers for new 1.1

[nimble wraith]

Likely need to get ahold of the host themselves, fixing the connection issue across the board is a backend thing for just abt any service

Since most hosts arent defining -ReliablePort currently (with it being new and all that)

[prisma hazel]

if u put a new port (as in add a port to a slot) in it replaces that line with the new port number however the issue becomes that the server least mine isnt listing it under other ports

[opal bough]

My server runs fine for a good 20 minutes before dying, doing a timeout error, crashing the server

It consistently does this too. Crashing roughly every 20 minutes or so.

Happened like 10 times already

[prisma hazel]

are u hosting or renting

[opal bough]

Is this something with provider? Didn't happen before experimental

Renting

[snow obsidian]

I'm seeing the same issue @opal bough and I tried self-hosting via Docker, Bare Metal(Linux Ubuntu 24.04) and on a Rented Server and same issue as well as issues placing Foundation.

[opal bough]

After 5 more crashes, it seems to be something crashing the server consistently

[tranquil acorn]

I've been getting similar crashes also

same error

[snow obsidian]

guess I'll check back in a week or two.

[tranquil acorn]

I have to restart the server

[opal bough]

Every time

[potent widget]

i cannot join satisfactory servers, i can hear gameplay sounds but doesnt open game. infinity loading screen issue. host can play game but i cant. port is 2222.
Should I do something or should the person who set up the server do something?

[cedar glade]

need to add port 8888

I had to do this yesterday

[potent widget]

host must be add 8888 right? @cedar glade

[cedar glade]

Yes I added to both Network and firewall

I also added port 27777 as well

Hi guys, I'm wondering if you guys had any luck with getting these random crashes on experimental server

Error: appError called: Assertion failed: false [File:D:\BuildAgent\work\78a794e88763017d\UE4\FactoryGame\Plugins\ReliableMessaging\Source\ReliableMessaging\Public\ReliableMessagingProtocol.h]

I have read few things about restricting IP address to this new 8888 port wondering if you guys have had any luck

[sour dirge]

Hi, I seem to have resolved this error by adding in the command line argument that was mentioned in the patch notes, and adding that new port to my firewall.

It did NOT let me choose the same port, so now I have two ports Satisfactory uses

If you're renting a server, the provider has to resolve this.

[opal bough]

Does this mean I'd put "-ExternalReliablePort=32000" or whatever?

[sour dirge]

yes but on the server side

[opal bough]

Provider might need to do it, then..

I'll wait a day, then.

Thanks!

[white kernel]

should i worry about any of these error on my 1.1 eperimental dedicatied server? LogOnlineSchema: Error: Invalid schema category lobby: Service descriptor id lobby not found.
LogOnlineSchema: Error: Invalid schema category lobbymember: Service descriptor id lobbymember not found.
LogOnlineServices: Error: [FLobbiesCommon::Initialize] Failed to initialize schema registry
LogOnlineIntegration: Error: Failed to get connectivity interface for 'NULL' online backend

im trying to host a new eperimental server, but im not getting any connection working in satisfactory game, on my personal home server im hosting other servers like minecraft and enshrouded fine, but even after opening ports i still cant connect to my dedicated server on public or private ip address

[sour dirge]

experimental branch added new CLI and a new port

You have to add both to get it working, dedicated server needs two portforwards

[white kernel]

whats the new ports?

[sour dirge]

8888, plus the one you normally use. Default is 7777

[white kernel]

thank you

ill try add 8888

[sour dirge]

add -ReliablePort=8888

to the Command line for your dedicated server

[jolly panther]

but you should see the server even without 8888 i think, it would just not be joinable

[white kernel]

when the server runs it does show its using 7777: LogServer: Display: Server API listening on [::]:7777

my 2 connections look like this in game, using my servers local IP address and my public one :/ and my other game servers im hosing are working fine and connecting still

port 8888 open had no effect

[jolly panther]

i guess u did not forget to open the port in the firewall? and you use ipv4 for the try?

[white kernel]

yes i opened the ports on my firewall, and did the port forwarding on my router,

[jolly panther]

strange, i mean at least the local ip should work but obviously dont

[white kernel]

ok was something to do with my firewall, i turned it off and connection popped straight away

must have borked the firewall port opening

[jolly panther]

😄

[white kernel]

when all else fails just turn off the firewall to test 😅

now to turn back on and get it working

with firewall back on still cant connect, anybody see an issue with how i have firewall ports?

[jolly panther]

yes. you need 7777 tcp and udp i think

i think i just spotted it as i sent both were set to tcp

[supple heath]

Hello, since the last update of experimental, servers is crashing more often than usual. Found "Insufficient memory" log in the Application event, but memory and swap are never highly used. Do you have already faced this ?
Windows OS - Epic

[mild thunder]

Guessing you're still having issues with those rules?

[vagrant latch]

Reading the comments, I allowed 8888 through my Router firewall and added it to the command line. That worked. Thank you been smashing my fash against that for the last 24 hours.
Immediately connected and didn't need to re-add the server or anything, Or add them to the servers local firewall in windows either.

[lusty olive]

ha we had the same idea 😄 https://gist.github.com/sinuscosinustan/311a17dccdb7d5c2f9b80cc9be179242

[vapid token]

Just wanted to follow up, that rollout was successful, we had no issues afterwards, thank you again!

[cedar glade]

guys I see these scrpits are for Linux have you guys got any idea how to fix this on windows?

[icy leaf]

Anyone else having problems with their server crashing randomly? It works fine until it randomly crashes about once an hour

[deep turret]

these script have to be a joke really
all you have to do is add ports to this file : https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers#Port_Forwarding_and_Firewall_Settings

[final oxide]

anyone else having the issue where your server goes to the loading screen and dons 't stop even after the game has loaded?

it only happens on the experimenal branch for me

[mellow vapor]

Yes mine is crashing every 20 min or so

[rose coral]

And my dedicated is working now so no need to help was sth with cpu dunno

[icy leaf]

Any idea why?

[mellow vapor]

Nope, I would just wait until it Gets fixed. I mean that can Happen on experimental

[lusty olive]

wf.msc and create a custom incoming rule that only allows certain remote ip addresses?

[lusty olive]

It's not about the "users don't know how to open a port", it's about to easily allow an user ip because you can crash the server with some garbage traffic to port 8888 (the new port) which happens on a public ip regularly because of bots that scan all ips

[royal sierra]

Hello i got the same Problem as you @potent widget and @final oxide also try @cedar glade 's workflow but my Server can nut use 8888 so i try 32000 too
must i insert/edit my Engine.ini? that i try but with no luck
have someone woked it out?
vor info i use Pterodactyl on a Debian Root Server and i can usr/set Query(28888) & Beacon(15888) Port Query is the Game Port, and i added -ExternalReliablePort=32000 to the Start Command,
sadly nothing works.

[mild thunder]

for me it was to add the secondary port to the Satisfactory server via the allocations, then just add -ReliablePort=???? with the correct extra port on it to the startup command

[royal sierra]

Hi do u use Ptero too?
i try that can u me fruther ?

[mild thunder]

here is what one of my startup commands looks like: ./Engine/Binaries/Linux/*-Linux-Shipping FactoryGame -Port={{SERVER_PORT}} -ReliablePort=8585

[final oxide]

I cant find engin.ini

[royal sierra]

/FactoryGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Engine.ini
on Linux

[final oxide]

windows?

[mild thunder]

if you go into your nodes, then click on the node that is running the satisfactory server, then there will be an Allocation tab at the top, make sure 2 ports are assigned for your satisfactory server.

[royal sierra]

her is mine
"""
./Engine/Binaries/Linux/*-Linux-Shipping FactoryGame ?listen -Port={{SERVER_PORT}} -ServerQueryPort={{QUERY_PORT}} -BeaconPort={{BEACON_PORT}} -ExternalReliablePort=32000 -multihome=0.0.0.0 $(if {{DISABLE_SEASONAL}}; then echo "-DisableSeasonalEvents"; fi)
"""

[mild thunder]

looks like you might have the old egg for it, maybe go grab the new egg?

[final oxide]

is it on the server files or the local files

[royal sierra]

%AppData%\Local\FactoryGame\Saved/Config/WindowsServer/Engine.ini maybe

[final oxide]

did you mean to switch \ and /

factory game is gone

[royal sierra]

ok there are
"""
Server 1 Public

Satis_Srv_Game_Query-Port: 27777

Server 2 Exprimental
Satis_Exp_Beacon-Port: 15888
Satis_Exp_Game_Query-Port: 28888
"""

[royal sierra]

Maybe where can i get the right/new one?
i got my from the Offi Ptero Repo

[mild thunder]

yeah there was a new one for 1.0 seems like you got an older one

[royal sierra]

thats only a copy pase error of me nothig to worry 😉

[final oxide]

%LocalAppData%\FactoryGame\Saved\Config\Windows\
is the correct filepath

[royal sierra]

have u a link?

[mild thunder]

if you just go to their egg repository and search, it is easy to find, cant post the link here

[royal sierra]

nice thx for corecting it

[final oxide]

ok what do i need to change now that i am here

[royal sierra]

thx i try to google is is a time ago i used it so i sur have the old one;)

[mild thunder]

if you want i could Direct message it to you

[fresh saddle]

Few people mentioned in here it might be random traffic on the ports, which i guess makes sense since network scans and whatnot happen all the time.
I've limited the firewall of our dedicated server to just the ip adresses of my friends and it looks like the server stopped crashing.

[royal sierra]

ok nice thx i font no Satis agg in the Ptero Repo
but in th Pelican Repo onderr
pelican-eggs / eggs / game_eggs / steamcmd_servers / satisfactory /
is that compatible too?

ok maybe i found a egg vor Ptero at
ghostcap-gamming / pterodactyl-eggs / games / satisfactory /

[timber shuttle]

any reason why a brand new server might be crashing every 30 mins or so

[frank blade]

[frank blade]

What is ReliablePort used for? Need to describe it in the readme

[royal sierra]

so far so sadly not good when i try to connect i hear ingame sound but the loading screen still do not go away -.-

nothing worked atm for me have still the same bug like before (same as @potent widget in #dedicated-servers message

[potent widget]

Dear @royal sierra
Can you stop tagging me for the sake of all of us?
Thanks, best regards.

[royal sierra]

yes i can

[frank blade]

Experimental? Try use egg from this PR
https://github.com/Ptero-Eggs/game-eggs/pull/118

You need to provide additional port for ReliablePort and set this port in variables

[royal sierra]

so have u got it work?

[royal sierra]

i know and i do so but it did not work

[mild thunder]

if your updating the repo, might as well add -ExternalReliablePort= as a potential option

[sturdy niche]

does someone know how to change port
i want to turn the 8888 back to 7777

currently on debian

cause the 8888 port on my server is already taken

wait, do we need 7777 AND 8888 at once now ?

[azure flame]

Looking to troubleshoot a hosted dedicated server. I would like to bring the current game to my local PC and play without a dedicated server. Is that possible? I see a lot of tutorials about how to take a single player game to a dedicated server, but not the other way around.

[steel osprey]

Not reallly 😉 they forked the Pelican Repo and give a s*** of existing licences. I would not use this repo

[steel osprey]

looks like, you need both

[sturdy niche]

do it in reverse or download it form in-game

[sturdy niche]

g r e a t
i can only have 1 port for satisfactory and i'm stuck with using 2 now

[steel osprey]

there is also a third 7777 +20000 = 27777 🙂

[sturdy niche]

for 1.0 1 port was necesarry, why 3 now ?

[azure flame]

@sturdy niche Ok, I will look into that. Just way too many weird things happening that just have no explanation and simply exiting the game and coming back in clears up

[pine urchin]

The reliable port (by default TCP/8888) is in addition to the existing port (by default UDP/7777 and TCP/7777.)

The purpose of the additional reliable port relates, I think, to reliable bulk data transfer between client and server.

[sturdy niche]

yeah, but now i can't do anything since they added it, no so reliabable if i can't even connect anymore
i'm using playit.gg so i can share my ip to my friend while hiding mine.

[pine urchin]

I believe that was from a previous version of the experimental build.

[cedar glade]

Thanks for this we have start testing so hopfully it helps

[steel osprey]

and its in the 1.1 build too

or do you think, they add it and remove it ?

[sturdy niche]

i would prefer to have an toggle to turn those ports off

or even better, be able to join an server with an server ID

[steel osprey]

no need. every "normal" server can use a lot of ports. If you are using playit.gg then its your problem and you have to find a solution

not really the problem of the devs

[pine urchin]

Per the release notes:

We have updated the Port Allocation Strategy in Reliable Messaging

New features:

Explicit Port Configuration

• A new -ReliablePort= command-line parameter allows explicit port selection.
• The value must be an integer between 0 and 65535.
• If specified, the server will attempt to bind to this port and fail to initialize if the port is unavailable.

[steel osprey]

thats added too

read section bugfixes

[pine urchin]

That links to previous experimental updates. 1.1 introduces changes to the port allocation approach.

[hidden forge]

Port base+20k was the experimental version, 1.1 refined it to port 8888 by default, changeable with "-ReliablePort"

Default 7777 is still in use

[pine urchin]

-ReliablePort for the server-side, -ExternalReliablePort (probably in addition) if it's being remapped to a different numeric port by NAT or similar.

[steel osprey]

in my eyes these are 2 different things

[hidden forge]

Thx, fixed

[hidden forge]

Why?

[sturdy niche]

is there an way to change 27777 ?

i'll just try to change 8888 to 7001
and 27777 to 7002

[hidden forge]

a) adjust base port
b) don't use experimental

[pine urchin]

TCP/27777 is not used by 1.1 unless you explicitly tell it to.

By default, you need UDP/7777, TCP/7777, and (newly in 1.1) TCP/8888

[sturdy niche]

the [/Script/ReliableMessaging.ReliableMessagingTCPFactory]
is in /home/steam/satisfactory/FactoryGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Engine.ini right ?

[deep marten]

Anyone else that have server problemes with 1.1 it keeps crashing after some time and sometimes its up for 5 min and other times 30min.

[near girder]

Yup..

[pine urchin]

Yes. You want [base directory]/FactoryGame/Saved/Config/LinuxServer/Engine.ini, if you've installed in /home/steam/satisfactory, then that's correct.

[near girder]

We abandoned it for now. I'd love the new features in my multiplayer session but right onw we can't get it to stay up long enough to be useable.

[pine urchin]

If that section of the .ini file does not yet already exist, you'll need to add it.

[pine urchin]

Yes, I've seen serious reliability problems. Might be caused by external connections from non Satisfactory client sources causing the new bulk transfer library to error out and crash the server.

(Timing might vary depending on how your server processes are managed, they may have some degree of backoff.)

[deep marten]

okay thx for the answer. lets hope for a quick fix so we can keep playing.

[pine urchin]

I've rolled back to 1.0 for now.

This is what Experimental is for, right?

[sturdy niche]

welp, my testing failed.

tried having:
7777 (unchanged)
and 8888 to 7778

and let playit.gg tunnel port 7777 and 7778 and don't work, guess i'll try another tunnel app or even cloudflare

[sturdy niche]

question not for changing 8888
but do you know how to change port 7777 to something else ?

[pine urchin]

-Port=12345, per https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[wicked edge]

the expiremental dedicated server version seems to not be working

[sturdy niche]

add port 8888 in whitelist

[pine urchin]

What error / behaviour are you seeing?

[kind atlas]

I made a batch script that will restart the server if it crashes. Sometimes you stay connected, sometimes you don't: @echo off
:RESTART
echo Starting Satisfactory server...
start /wait FactoryServer.exe
echo Server crashed or closed. Restarting in 1 seconds...
timeout /t 1
goto RESTART

for windows based server

[sturdy niche]

which server startup ?
the FactoryServer.sh ?
systemctl ?

[sour dirge]

I have a new issue with 1.1 server where the server goes “idle” after some time with no connections, and players cannot join

[sharp portal]

Hey I'm trying to update my server to experimental, and I did ( I believe, using the SteamCMD commands ) but now I can't join, it just has infinite load screen problem. Anyone know what might be happening? It was a 1.0 save, and now we've updated both the server and our steam versions to the experimental betas.

[sturdy niche]

add port 8888 in whitelist

[sour dirge]

See above discussion about command line argument plus new port

[sharp portal]

Oop

[sharp portal]

You mean port forward 8888?

[sturdy niche]

tcp yeah

[sharp portal]

Thanks! I'll try this out

[sour dirge]

Well. I have no idea what to do to resolve this new issue with the server going idle

I’m reverting to 1.0. Dedicated servers aren’t ready for 1.1

I’d probably advise others to do the same instead of facing down this headache just for it to not work anyway

[sharp portal]

The server is going idle?

Like when people aren't connecting for a while?

[sour dirge]

yep

[sharp portal]

weird... what kind of time frame? couple hours?

[sour dirge]

which then requires admin intervention

[sharp portal]

🙃

[sour dirge]

I guess so. not enough info was in my console to figure it out

[sharp portal]

Damn

That's annoying.

[sour dirge]

good news: downgrading to Stable/release channel was VERY easy

[sharp portal]

Do you know if there anything else I need to do - in regards to the dedicated server itself - other than port forwarding 8888 in my router settings? I think I'm still encountering the infinite load issue

[sharp portal]

Yeah I might have to downgrade as well if we can't connect

[sour dirge]

There's also adding the command line argument to the launch parameters

[sharp portal]

Ah I missed that

[sour dirge]

-ReliablePort=8888 "worked" for me

[cedar glade]

Very useful thank you

[sharp portal]

and I need that ExecStart line too?

or just reliable port

[sour dirge]

that execstart line is a systemd thing

[sharp portal]

Sorry, I'm a bit new to running the server

Ah nice

[sour dirge]

Ignore it if you don't use systemd

(systemd is a linux process to run things as a service)

[sharp portal]

I use Steamcmd, so I can just add reliable port to my bat file I use to run it, I think

on windows

[sour dirge]

yup

[sharp portal]

sick

Ty for the help!

[sour dirge]

if you encounter issues and decide to downgrade, the easiest way is just change -beta experimental to -beta public

[sharp portal]

when doing the app_update thing, right?

[sour dirge]

yep

[sharp portal]

Perf

[sturdy niche]

praying it works

i'm balling it

[sturdy niche]

IT WORKS

YES

currently my tunnel is on port 23447 23448 (playit.gg gave me randomelly)
Setted the port to 23447 and 23448 to reliableport

IT'S ALIVE

[sour dirge]

I crawled through the insanity that was my logs and ran into several repeating instances of this

[sharp portal]

weird, I can HEAR water, but still just stuckin loading lol

[sharp portal]

So did you not use 8888? or is this in addition to that?

Both of you are using Linux based servers, right?

[sour dirge]

I don't know why they even added 8888

It's just.. broken

[sharp portal]

hmm

[sour dirge]

I successfully setup firewall rules, port forwarding, etc.. And the port just dies

Over and over, the server fails to bind 8888 after being idle for a while

[sturdy niche]

basically
the main ip SF uses is the -port line
the -port gives to the client the -ReliablePort

[sour dirge]

hmm

Not quite

beta requires two separate ports. clients connect with the -Port, and the backend uses -ReliablePort for something else.

If you set port and reliableport to the same, you will never load

[sharp portal]

hmm

SO this isnt working, I think I need to do something else?

[sour dirge]

8888 and your other port are both forwarded?

connecting using other port? (default is 7777)

[sharp portal]

yup

[sour dirge]

make both for both

[sharp portal]

kk

🙏

hilariously, I'll probably run into your idle problem Otter xD

even if I get it working

Nope.

hmm

Do I have to add -port=7777 ? or something else?

[sour dirge]

did you do a new powershell command?

if you setup the server using powershell commands in the beginning, you'll want to do new powershell commands with new displaynames for the firewall rule

if you used the Allow process, no need, it should be fine already

[sour dirge]

btw there appears to be a space in your -unattended

[sturdy niche]

My server gone in idle too, welp

[sour dirge]

yup

prognosis is

ds borked

[quaint hound]

Hey I use playit.gg to port forward my server but whenever I try to join I get stuck in the Loading screen. Can someone help?

[sturdy niche]

what is you port currently in playit.gg ?

[quaint hound]

You mean the local or the public one

[sturdy niche]

public

[quaint hound]

42687

[sturdy niche]

what is the OS the server is running on ?

[quaint hound]

Windows

[sturdy niche]

ah

i'm running on debian so i need to look how to do it on windows

[quaint hound]

Yea I currently cant try anything new because the server is off. Probably wont be able to access it till tomorrow

[sturdy niche]

wen you made your tunnel, did you put 1 in it ?

if yes, you will need to remake it into Port Count = 2

once your tunnel is running on 2 ports

wait, are you running with Steam(normal app) or SteamCMD(commandline) ?

[quaint hound]

Oh and then I will need to bind the normal port on my public port and the reliable port on the the next port number so for example if the port is 43546 I will need to bind the reliable port on 43547 right?

[quaint hound]

Commandline

[sturdy niche]

ye

and in playit.gg, put local port as 43546

[quaint hound]

Alright I will try that tomorrow. Thanks for the help

[quaint hound]

yup will do

[kind atlas]

I take it there's no workaround for constant server crashes in experimental yet?

[heady fossil]

I too am stuck on the loading screen. I added the lines to my engine.ini file and port forwarded 8888 for both TCP and UDP. What am I missing?

[heady fossil]

Also added the command line to my server start .bat and still no luck

[sour dirge]

two ports total now?

should be both default port and reliable port.

[heady fossil]

Yeah 7777 and 8888 open on both TCP and UDP

[civic wharf]

Does anyone have a working server for 1.1? My friend is stuck on this loading screen. I followed the wiki.gg page on setting it up, works for me locally.

Running on a container on my local proxmox server

I see him in the server, and he can hear me moving around him. If he moves his mouse his character's head moves

[sour dirge]

Even if you do fix the loading screen problem , you'll run into other troubles.

[civic wharf]

F

[sour dirge]

1.1 isn't ready for dedicated servers.

[civic wharf]

Is that just in general w/ 1.1? What about local sessions?

[sour dirge]

(you can fix infinite loading screens with the above discussion)

[civic wharf]

what other issues does 1.1 have on servers?

[sour dirge]

Randomly dies when idle

port 8888 takes a random dump

Log gave no useful information. just randomly fails to bind port 8888

[civic wharf]

gotchya, but just needs restart here and there? How often is it?

[sour dirge]

seemed to botch my server within an hour or two of no players connected. Requires host to restart server, because the server is unreachable via listening ports

[civic wharf]

gotchya, I'll give it a try

[sour dirge]

For me, this meant restarting my linux satisfactory service

[civic wharf]

Yeah I gotchya, systemd to the rescue

[sour dirge]

systemd unfortunately couldn't overcome the idle issue

[sour dirge]

my log was pages and pages of this

[civic wharf]

lol

[sour dirge]

production version of server working fine. Only change was moving from -beta experimental to -beta public

so, to me, that indicates experimental / 1.1 dedicated servers are broken

[civic wharf]

Yeah, I might just move to 1.0 until 1.1 is more stable on multiplayer if this doesn't work well

Connectors had to connect to 8888 right?

[sour dirge]

If you have players connecting when you're offline, I recommend sticking to 1.0

If you're only playing at the same time as other players, 1.1 will be fine.

[sour dirge]

two ports now

default port and reliableport

For me, that's 27777 and 8888

[civic wharf]

Right, but for people connecting what do they put for connection info?

or do they state multiple ports somehow?

[sour dirge]

they put default port

The 2nd port is for server purposes

[civic wharf]

And I have to forward 8888? Or is it fine to just leave default

[sour dirge]

Forward it

and make sure firewall rules allow it

[civic wharf]

Yeah my firewall is open

[sour dirge]

I had to edit my ufw file in Ubuntu

[civic wharf]

I live on the edge and am too lazy to mess with it

[sour dirge]

lololol

[civic wharf]

xD

[sour dirge]

hope it's in a vm 👀

[civic wharf]

LXC container

Weird, server has been up for a day or two now and it says it's on Tier 2 and I have stuff like reinforced plates in my inv. But the milestone is still to build the hub and I see 0 progress in the world

[sour dirge]

manually force it to load your save

Double-check that it auto-loads the correct file save type

[civic wharf]

Resetting the world and in the Create Game screen the research mam and shop unlock checkboxes are force checked?

[sour dirge]

I considered a different naming convention to avoid errors

i.e. Otter Corp -> Otter Corp Beta

[civic wharf]

Yeah, this is a fresh world so it's all new

I have a password on admin & players so I wouldn't think someone got in lol

[lilac pine]

@sturdy gust any idea what might be causing the container to be crashing?

[civic wharf]

Shit keeps crashing mid-game. Moving to 1.0 lol

[hard lantern]

Yeah 1.1 on SteamCMD is.... very unstable lol

Best to play 1.0 if you're hosting imo.

[heady fossil]

Okay so how to I downgrade ther server back to 1.0? Tried just validating without beta experimental through steamcmd but now it says I have a version mismatch. Client is 1.0 but server is still trying to run 1.1 experimental

[mild thunder]

non experimental: -beta public

[heady fossil]

That fixed it. Thank you!

[stoic steppe]

It's probably been posted already, but looking for a fix for 1.1 Dedi server just closing after roughly 10 minutes of run time. Doesn't matter if anyone is playing or not. I'm sure I've missed something.

Windows 10. SteamCMD. -log -unattended -Port=7777 -ReliablePort=8888

Both 7777 and 8888 are open on firewall and both ports forwarded. Haven't had any issues with dedicated servers up until 1.1 update yesterday. Any help is appreciated. My and a few mates are already 12 hours in to a fresh game and just today it has been crashing non stop.. Thanks

[fresh saddle]

Not saying this works for everyone, but we had our server crash randomly with public port forwards.
Sending random stuff (like a portscan) to the public ports just crashes the server, heck even telnetting to it and hitting enter twice crashes the server....
The solution for us was to limit the firewall so it only allows certain people (ip addresses) in who actually play the game... server has been stable for many hours on experimental.

[wild saffron]

Sadly, host mine with g-portal so can't try that. 😦

Hope they release a update soon to fix this since it's unplayable for me. Anyone know if they do update during experimental stages?

[sturdy niche]

yep, having the Idle thing.

didn't even know SF had an Idle thing

tho i have Pause the game when no players are connected OFF

[quaint hound]

btw thanks this worked

[gleaming sleet]

https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/67ec14056b7c573196362460
This make me basically unable to host 1.1 for my friends

[mighty kraken]

thanks this fixed my issue

Question don't know if this is the right place. But you guys are running dedicated server, so maybe you know.

My ISP changes my IP every 24 hours. Asked them if I could have a static IP but the answer was no... So I was wondering if any of you know if a reverse proxy might work? or does that require a static IP?

Thanks in advance!

[spiral pulsar]

Reverse proxy works with dynamic IPs, i personally use Nginx proxy manager with cloudflare for SSL, and with cloudflare you can have a small script running to automaticly update the IP everytime it changes

[mighty kraken]

Thanks was not sure if that would work. Gonna look into that. I am running pelican i think they have ssl support build in. So ill try using cloudflare.

[sturdy niche]

playit.gg is an reverse proxy that doesn't need any port fowarding

download it
run playit in an console
link the server to your account on an browser
create an tunnel with 2 ports
take the public ports it gave you
go in your satisfactory ports setting
set the public port as the normal port
and for the ReliablePort, take the public port + 1
restart satisfactory and your good to go

[paper valley]

has anyone updated their server to 1.1?

[sturdy niche]

ye

[paper valley]

is it stable, unstable?

[tawny shadow]

unstable

[paper valley]

damn, looked like a cool update too

[tawny shadow]

well its the experimental branch, embrace the bugs and report them 😛

[paper valley]

true true, ive only just got the game though and im enjoying it ngl😂

[mighty kraken]

i find it more stable.. dont have the delete hologram anymore.. and some more annoying stuff that would happen are gone..

[sturdy niche]

for me it's stable, just have the idle server bug

[hidden forge]

Nginx as rev proxy works with a stream config (I can provide one). But then you need a way to point the IP to the proxy, so you're just shifting the problem.
What you need is not a proxy but some kind of dynamic DNS (ddns) setup

[mighty kraken]

Ahh oke, will add that too the list of possibilities. Thanks, building my first homelab/so been grinding the documentation but its a lot

[sturdy niche]

if i recall, playit.gg doesn't rely on your ip
the server will connect to playit.gg server's and do an link, then the ip playit.gg gives you won't change.

[mighty kraken]

Sorry skipped you comment, added too the list. need to figure out what works best. Thanks.

[mossy grove]

I have a dedicated server running on experimental and having issues placing and deconstructing foundations

[mighty kraken]

With blueprints or single foundation?

if blueprint switching too normal and deleting one foundation seems too work

but useally i just restart the server

i had this since 1.0

[mossy grove]

Both, when placed they are invisible but there and when deconstructed they are gone but still visibly there, restarting the server makes everything update but I cant play like that

[mighty kraken]

are you on 1.0

[mossy grove]

I said the server is experimental which I 1.1

[mighty kraken]

Welp there are bugs, so switching back or waiting on a patch it is

[eternal siren]

My experience so far has been extremely unstable, and that is with a fresh save. Lots of server crashes and as many game crashes.

[eternal siren]

You don’t need to restart the server, just back out to main menu and reload in.

[mossy grove]

This is incredibly annoying if this is the case lol

[eternal siren]

It is annoying not gonna lie, but that’s what experimental has always been about, we find the bugs, report them and hope they get fixed.

[plush roost]

Hey all, ive got a 1.1 server running but ive been noticing crashes in the logs - even when no one is even playing there are crashes being reported. Have others seen instability with the experimental build as well? Any tips on mitigating?

can someone get in vc and walk through how to make a dedicated server at any time?

[icy leaf]

Yes, mine is crashing about every 20min because of some issue in the reliable messaging internal plugin, and i have no clue to fix it, if here is anyone who knows more id appreciate any help.

Did you limit it on the Host firewall or on your ISP firewall ?

[plush roost]

im reading some random posts about it on the forums...some people are reporting its related to the new 8888 port, and theyre claiming that random trash data sent to 8888 can effectively ddos and crash the server with ease

[supple heath]

Thanks for the info, I was getting numb about this crashes, could not figure out why it was so messy while it used to work like a charm before

[fresh saddle]

ISP firewall, but i recon on the host should also work... as long as random traffic does not come in.

[supple heath]

I have firewall set up on the host and I only forward the 7777 & 8888 ports so my friend can access it with the IP address

[plush roost]

its been reported on the QA site, recommend upvoting it so the devs see it and workarouds, https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/67ec14056b7c573196362460

[wet adder]

Question: I removed my 1.1 exp server files and backupfiiles, and reinstalled the server with below command.. but Im getting 1.1 anyway.. how? 😄 .. getting a missmatch between client (385279) and server (403662)

steamcmd.exe +force_install_dir F:\satisfactoryserver +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

the .exe file (FactoryServer.exe) states its indead 1.1 , but Im not installting with the beta -experimental tag in the cmd line ..

[unique solstice]

Hello everyone,

I’m reaching out because I have a question.
I set up a server using Proxmox, with Windows Server 2019 and Windows 10, but I can’t access my server locally despite having opened the necessary ports on both Windows Server and Windows 10.
Would anyone be able to help me with this?

Thank you in advance.

[supple heath]

I can't limit the port 8888 access for specific IPs, and set up a VPN just so my friend can connect on the server seems overkill .. My VPN is for my private usage only to connect when I am away from home

[plush roost]

you could opt to firewall traffic instead and whitelist your friends ranges

or set up a purpose built tailnet if youre willing to jump through the hoops

otherwise we're stuck waiting for the devs :/

[supple heath]

Ho mate that's harsh, don't want to work at home, I already have Satisfactory for that x)
I manage to have 1-2 hours max without interruption, let's wait on the Devs

[tawny shadow]

the reason the 1.1 server are crashing are port scans,
just found out that i can crash the server at will with an portscan via nmap

[slate cove]

So I've set up a dedicated server and I can connect fine, but when my friend connects he does seem to join but his loading screen doesn't go away, I'm not sure if it's a problem with the server or his client. Any ideas as to why?

[plush roost]

you are probably running 1.1 and didnt open port 8888 if i had to guess

and the reason you can is because youre on the same network as the server

but if that is the case you should also see the above discussion....port 8888 is a landmine for crashes when random internet traffic hits it like from port scanners

[wild saffron]

Is it possible to disable the ReliableMessagingProtocol?

[sturdy niche]

Port 8888 ?
Nop

[oblique stratus]

why would somebody not be able to connect to a server if it works fine on the same network

and i have it port forwarded thru the router and the firewall

[hidden forge]

many posssible reasons for that...

[plush roost]

CGNAT for example would make your port forwarding rules moot and leave you unconnectable without special efforts for punch throughs. Hard to say knowing nothing about your network

[mild silo]

on my server when ı try delete that spesific pump server crashes

and reboots

I found solution at not removing it but adding 2 more pumpys

fr lol

[supple heath]

your IP is clear mate ^^

[mild silo]

yea

its okay

not my ip anyway

fr

[mild silo]

solution

[ocean shadow]

I've reinstalled the dedicated server from the experimental branch. As per the wiki, I get a correct expected response when browsing from the client machine (IP:7777 in browser): {"errorCode": "errors.com.epicgames.httpserver.route_handler_not_found", "errorMessage": ""} <-- it says error, but this is the expected correctly-working response you should get as per the wiki to verify you can successfully connect to the dedicated server

However, in the server manager on the client machine, the server always appears offline

the final lines of the dedicated server logs are:
LogInit: Display: Engine is initialized. Leaving FEngineLoop::Init()
LogServer: Display: Server startup time elapsed and saving/level loading is done, auto-pause is allowed to proceed from now on (if enabled in server settings). WorldTimeSeconds = 30.07
LogSocketsSSL: Warning: Failed to initialize SSL state for Socket HttpRequest
LogHttpListener: Error: Error accepting expected connection [0] SE_NO_ERROR

actually, after restarting the server, the SSL error is no longer there, but it still appears offline to the client

firewall is disabled to rule that out, and it's a direct connection between two machines on the LAN, with a connection straight to the LAN IP, to rule out port forwarding for now

[ocean shadow]

fixed it. Another unrelated service was bound to one of the required ports

[grand brook]

Alrighty questions and I've broken it again: so server "loads" per say in experimental but it won't actually um let me join. I keep getting this error on the console and that "Initializing respawn_sequence.bat" on my game client

I've tried save editing and giving myself god mode and just everything I could think of.

[ocean shadow]

what does the client say when you attempt to connect?

[sturdy niche]

1.1.0.1

[sturdy niche]

seem server doesn't go idle anymore

[viral dirge]

Anyone else observing their server in a constant reboot loop when running experimental.

LogInit: Warning: Could not initialize SDL: No available video device
LogLinux: Warning: MessageBox: Plugin 'OnlineServicesOSSAdapter' failed to load because module 'OnlineServicesOSSAdapter' could not be found.
LogCore: Engine exit requested (reason: EngineExit() was called)

[vagrant acorn]

Anyone using a Nitrado server for the experimental branch? Wondered if anyone knows the sort of timescales for the server to update. This morning I downloaded the latest patch locally but now the server is behind so have a version mismatch.

[sturdy niche]

Did you update to 1.1.0.1 ?

[weary estuary]

After upgrading the beta version, this problem occurred when connecting to the server. Has anyone encountered this before?
Failed to Connect to the Server AP!

[viral dirge]

Yes. Only experiencing this issue with 1.1.0.1. Works fine on the stable branch.

[sturdy niche]

seem my server doesn't like Satisfactory anymore

i think there's an CPU leak in the dedicated server

this all fine after an restart of the dedicated server

[supple heath]

Don't know for y'all, but since the update 1.1.0.1 in experimental, I don't face any intempestive crash, my server is running fine since 3h+

[sturdy niche]

welp, seem the idle bug is back to curse me

[whole meadow]

screenshot ?

[prisma hazel]

The problem im having has migrated from the endless loading in time issue to now crashing on server join

anyone have any tips?

i use shockbyte to host

[sturdy niche]

https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/67efeb096b7c573196363779

currently my server is online, but another bug is fucking me (problem 2 in the link)

[tawny shadow]

PortScanning via NMAP still crashes the Server

[pine urchin]

Yes, nmap -sV localhost -p 8888 will trigger a segfault.

[stone bridge]

I was crashing on entering my server until I turned off Lumin GI 😦

[storm parrot]

Latest patch fixed the crashing when the port is scanned. For anyone still having the endless loading issue, you'll need to open port 8888, per the 1.1 release notes.

[tawny shadow]

nope, Build 404250 still crashes via a port scan

[scarlet sonnet]

So I have a different issue than crashing, is anyone else having problems with building / destroying. I will build something and it will stay a blue hologram and never build client side. If I quit and rejoin the server the thing will be built. Same for destroying, I can delete something and it will stay on the screen client side however it will be deleted server side so I cant select it to delete the object again or anything. Once more if I quit and rejoin it will be properly removed. I am only having this problem on a dedicated server, multiplayer through normal means is fine.

[storm parrot]

Interesting. Mine has been running all morning. Just checked and joined again with no issues.

[storm parrot]

I had this happen once on the last version. I validated both client and server and never had the issue again.

[tawny shadow]

just do a port scan on 8888 yourself and check it

[scarlet sonnet]

tried this, sadly didnt resolve

[rose coral]

Does anyone suggest doing a 1.1 Experimental

[tawny shadow]

?

[storm parrot]

that was part of my check. no issues

[sturdy niche]

What is the current cpu utilisation?

[normal oracle]

How to make a dedicated server become a 1.1 server?

[storm parrot]

at idle, with satisfactory, enshrouded, css, and cs2 I'm at 5%

I recently upgraded to a 7900x build

I'm going to try and scan a couple of times in a row

[lilac pine]

My dedicated server has been up and running 4 hours with no crash since the update this morning

[storm parrot]

Well, I managed to crash it again. So maybe not fixed. But it runs for hours with no issues.

Running a stealth scan does not crash the server

[urban nebula]

does anyone know why this happens when joining a 1.1 dedicated server

[tawny shadow]

did it work before the update? did you port forward the new "reliable" port (default 8888)?

[urban nebula]

im joining someone elses

idk

[tawny shadow]

ask him these questions, we can do much without any info

[urban nebula]

its a 7777 port i know at least

[tawny shadow]

nmap -p 8888 -T4 -A -v server_ip_here kills my server within seconds

internal ip and external ip from an external server (with active port forwarding ont 8888)

[storm parrot]

mine too. Any time I scan locally it kills it.

using scanme.nmap.org does not

I guess server public ip tested locally is still technically not local. I have no idea why it's behaving this way. but isolating the scan to a packet trace does not crash it

[twilit fox]

Does the server still have issues with x86-64 qemu cpu's?

Or do we still have to set it to host?

Also... we're still able to use other ports, ex 22288? I see there's something about using 8888 instead of 7777 now..

[spare eagle]

is anyone else having the problem in 1.1 where after awhile it just stops letting you build or delete certain items?

the build items, like walls, foundations, pillars, etc will just remain blue and not actually place visually but will be there. Like, if you try to run through the area,it will stop you

same with delete, turns orange, then doesnt visually disappear but is actually gone. Like, if you walk over a deleted foundation, you will fal through even tho it looks like it is still there

this is all on Dedicated in 1.1

[storm parrot]

Does the server continue running on its own if you stop scanning? Also, can you try nmap -d --packet-trace -p8888 <your ip>? I'm curious if you get the same results.

[storm parrot]

yes, a user above just reported it. i haven't tested enough yet.

[spare eagle]

I am having this issue too! Where are you hosting your dedicated?

@storm parrot It happens pretty quickly and only seems to be certain pieces

[storm parrot]

from the release notes, it looks like it has a range of 512 from port 8888. never heard about those CPU issues. My server is 7900x and 7800x3d client - never had any issues related to that i know of

[rose coral]

People I am getting a crash when joining into my experimental server

[twilit fox]

I'll have try it.. are you using a hypervisor or bare metal?

Because it sound's like you're running bare metal. This was an issue the game had awhile back that was likely some cpu extension the game was using that virtual cpus didn't have so it would crash

[storm parrot]

you're right - i am

[twilit fox]

Yeah. If no one had idea by the time I get around to it I'll try it and find out.

[livid flare]

hey guys me and my team 3 members trying to create dedicated server for 1.1 v.... but server keeps crashing

can someone help to setup server right way please , it will be healpfull

[storm parrot]

open port 8888

[rose coral]

?

[tawny shadow]

that one is safe, no crash

[livid flare]

@charred gazelle

@pure crystal

[storm parrot]

wondering if this patch reduced the scope. i was crashing prior to this doing any scan or just running it
