dedicated-servers

[edgy pasture]

Hopefully that was enlightening enough

[hidden forge]

depends on the hosting type. if you have a complete system a VPN tunnel is still possible.
not so much if it's limited to the game server

[wide willow]

Any help pls?

[edgy pasture]

True.

If it’s a complete system, and not just the game server, it could absolutely be done.

Security implications of punching a tunnel through to the third-party server might be something to consider.
🤔

It might not be a big deal… but it could be ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[dusty hazel]

as i dmed u if everything is setup correctly port forwarding etc we can't really get into it if u won't give the ip :/

[wide willow]

Im not going to give out an ip of my dedicated server man

i dont trust anyone with it

[edgy pasture]

lol… healthy paranoia.
You have to do your own port checking then.

[dusty hazel]

it's ok if u don't wanna give it but troubleshooting without it won't go far

[edgy pasture]

@dusty hazel You are such a patient helper. Props to you.

[dusty hazel]

i love to help when i can improve in it for my job etc

[dusty hazel]

anyway u can check port forwarding/firewall look if ur server is still running when u see it offline in the manager look for crashing logs

[wide willow]

No crashes. I checked port forwarding ports are open. Two people can connect, but only one person cant

[dusty hazel]

always the same person ?

[wide willow]

yes

So assumed its on their end

but why is it happening?

[hidden forge]

maybe a VPN on their end?

[dusty hazel]

yeah maybe he loses the connection sometimes and can't find the server anymore

he could try to add another server and look if he loses connection to both

to be sure it's on their end

[wide willow]

Thank you. I will investigate further and let you know

[compact kettle]

Can that person join any other games?

[edgy pasture]

Hm. I know sometimes ISP’s overreach and do “packet shaping” or something nefarious to control traffic on their networks.
It can mess with specific traffic.
A VPN might cut through that.

Or maybe the person who is having trouble is unlucky enough to have some other service sometimes using that port.

The fact that it’s a “sometimes” problem is kinda odd.

[wide willow]

They can join other servers yes, but not ours

[compact kettle]

Does anyone here have a dedicated server open for his friend to try to join real quick?

Or just wondering if he will fail to join others dedicated servers

[fresh pollen]

im playing on a dedicated server with mods and none of the milestones are going through, when i unlock a milestone it just takes my resources but doesnt give me the milestone

[harsh raven]

Hey all. Was looking for some assistance with my dedicated server. It was working a few days ago but now all the remote folks are getting the "server name pending - not authenticated" error message and shows that my server is down.

[harsh raven]

I now have one person connected. I've been verifying firewall rules in PFSense and everything looks correct. I now have one friend able to cnnect and one th is unable...

[harsh raven]

Problem solved. Not sure how it started but last issue was someone's local firewall blocking the outbound traffic to my server

[paper lark]

Has anyone ever seen an issue with the self signed certificates created by the dedicated server? I'm troubleshooting some issues with connecting to my server and through the WAN is being super troublesome even though it's super easy port forwarding

I know the port forwarding is technically working too since I can actually in a browser connect to that port through my wan address and pull up the cert provided by the game server

But I'm still having the issue where without the second port (usually 8888 mine is currently 9600) it half loads you into a game but the loading screen never goes away and you just hear everything around you

been fighting this for hours and I'm at my limit

[compact kettle]

I mean unfortunately the loading screen with sounds has always meant the 8888 tcp isnt reached.. so.. its kinda a .. 🙃

[paper lark]

But I can reach that port through tcp and even pull the cert from a browser with the cname

So I just don’t get what isn’t working. I know it has SOMETHING to do with port forwarding on my firewall since it works through LAN but the port is clearly open and functional

[compact kettle]

Hmm yeah you sound like you're pn the right track but Ive only known and experienced the loading screen with sound like that with 8888 tcp not reachable

[paper lark]

Ya all the stuff I find says that’s been the issue given these symptoms

Just not sure where to go from here I guess. I had suspected it was a self signed cert issue but I assume most people’s dedicated servers use the self signed cert

[hidden forge]

Where did you change the port? Does the firewall do port translation or is the server running on 9600?

[dark fable]

Hey guys, we were playing with a friend trough Steam on his world. We decided to move to dedicated server. He hosted it imported the world and he joins fine but when I try to join I get stuck at infine loading screen with the message "Initializing respawn_sequence.bat..." He did opened 8888

[bold cloud]

you also need 7777 in tcp and udp

I need help with setting up a dedicated server, all steps are done correctly, ports are open and my friend can see the server but cant join.

i see him in game online for about 10 seconds then he gets kicked out

7777 tcp/udp open and 8888 tcp open.

[glad nest]

verify that your server is actually using 8888

[bold cloud]

it is, i run the game through cubecoders amp and the instance does run 8888, however the server has no exposed ini config to check that, what should i do?

[paper lark]

Wolveix’s docker image has env variables for changing the ports. I retested it through lan and it worked using port 9600

I could also switch it back to the default 8888 but I was just trying anything at that point since nothing was working

[paper lark]

anyone ever seen {"errorCode": "errors.com.epicgames.httpserver.route_handler_not_found", "errorMessage": ""}?

[deep turret]

that means you can connect

[paper lark]

That’s what I get trying to access the second port through a browser but I still can’t get past that loading screen

[dusty hazel]

can u send me the docker compose u use in private ?

[hidden forge]

The secondary port should not return anything, because it's not https.
Maybe you got the ports mixed?

[paper lark]

both ports actually return the same thing weirdly enough

[hidden forge]

Thats a problem then. Only the base port (7777) should respond to https

[haughty prism]

Hello. I'm trying to set up a server for me and my friends, I got the server to run and I can see/join it but my friends can't see it. I have set up firewall for 7777 TCP and UDP on inbound and outbound but I am stuck on port forwarding, I set local and public port to the same (7777) and the Ip to my local IPv4 but they still can't see it. I'm verry new to this but trying to learn.

[hidden forge]

"Inbound and outbound"
Do you mean internal and external or source and destination?

[haughty prism]

I'm not sure but I believe its internal and external

[dusty hazel]

u gave ur friends ur public ip or local ip ?

[hidden forge]

K, just do not restrict the source port to 7777
Also, did you ever host anything else? Do you know if you have a public IP?

[haughty prism]

This is my 1st time setting up a server.

[dusty hazel]

what is the ip u gave ur friend send it in private not here

[paper lark]

this was actually a god answer because it gave me the hint I needed

some reason my fortigate was being stupid so if I had a combined rule to route 7777 TCP and UDP (as one VIP) then the policy would also lump 8888 into the same 7777 port (which is why I got the weird printout on BOTH ports through WAN but ONLY on 7777 through LAN)

I just needed to some reason have 7777 TCP and UDP as separate VIPs

[dapper nova]

Could someone help me make a dedicated server on my own laptop?

Whats so funny @wicked knot ?

[wicked knot]

It's generally not recommended to game and serve on a robust desktop. Laptops struggle with just one of those tasks

[paper lark]

if the laptop is just HOSTING the server I don’t see it as that crazy if it’s a decent machine

[bold cloud]

@wicked knot advice off context

If the laptop has a Ryzen 5/7 it's better than most desktops

Besides depends how many players play it

[wicked knot]

Servers are also usually for constant duty, which laptop are not

[bold cloud]

Can do, unplug the battery

[wicked knot]

I mean, have fun, but ...

[rancid ether]

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/index.php?search=Dedicated_server

[bold cloud]

I have issues on my server too

Nobody can connect but myself locally, ports are open and people can see the server

They try to join but connection timed out after 10 seconds

[fickle abyss]

anyone ever see this before? LogAkAudio: Warning: UAkGameplayStatics::StopActor: Could not retrieve audio device.

[spare pollen]

would anyone have an idea on why i cant join my friend's dedicated sever i have put in the ip and all that when i press confirm this pops up. someone please help

[dusty hazel]

either the server is offline or u don't have the good ip/port

[spare pollen]

what is the right port

the sever is on i have the ip

its set as 7777

the port is

[dusty hazel]

7777 is default port if he for any reason changed it u must change it too

and maybe he gave u the wrong ip

[spare pollen]

ok

[dusty hazel]

if the ip he gave u start with 192. it's not a good one

for example

[mild bone]

what type of ip do we need to use?

[dusty hazel]

the public ip

[mild bone]

currently its ipv4

[dusty hazel]

u can use ipv4

but it must be the public ip

[mild bone]

alr

[dusty hazel]

u can open a cmd and do

curl -4 ifconfig.me

to get ur public ip

[spare pollen]

we have done everything you have said and nothing changed

[dusty hazel]

does ur friend has a vpn ?

[spare pollen]

he does not

[dusty hazel]

gimme the ip in private i can't do more troubleshooting without it

[bold cloud]

can port 8888 be changed to something else?

[glad nest]

there is tons of tools to check what listener ports are beign used depending on your os

[bold cloud]

the port open on my firewall but external tools gets a connection timed out, which means it isnt really open

canyouseeme.org would respond "connection refused" IF the port is open

so i need a way to change the port in satisfactory

OR at least a way to input a new port when connecting

looks like something else in my network is using 8888

[hidden forge]

Yes, "-Reliableport=XXXX"

[bold cloud]

any idea if this can be changed in AMP cubecoders?

[hidden forge]

No, sry

[bold cloud]

config files then?

[hidden forge]

See #patch-notes message

[lusty raptor]

In the instance settings you have a setting. This server runs 24 servers so the setting should work 🙂

[ancient mauve]

Anybody can help me setup a dedicated server with playit.gg?

I currently have the following setup on playit

and I run the server with
-Port=1751 -ReliablePort=1752

But my friend is still unable to connect

[bold cloud]

what is the error

did u check if the ports are open

[ancient mauve]

it shows up as open on portchecker

[bold cloud]

1752 is not udp, tcp only

1751 is both, tcp udp

[ancient mauve]

No error shows up. Nothing happens when they click confirm

[bold cloud]

then to your friend you give the serverip and he types x.x.x.x:1751

[ancient mauve]

Got it working thanks!

[leaden cape]

hey Im running a dedicated server but my CPU averages 85-90 degrees is that normal?

[hybrid pewter]

Yes, that's a normal CPU temperature

95-110 is the danger zone

Of course I do live in Texas so 90 is roughly room temperature here

[leaden cape]

I see cheers

[surreal smelt]

what's your ambient temp ?

[hidden forge]

Depends on CPU, cooler, usage, clocks and ambient temperature.
Also more of a question for #off-topic-tech

[sand prawn]

important to clarify C or F (i assume C when people talk about PC temps but you never know)

[coral ginkgo]

I would like to give a very late followup to my time running Satisfactory on an ARM server:
It worked very well. I had no noticeable bugs and the game was very playable. The only slowdowns were from doing a megafactory, of which was still totally playable, at 18 at worst if my memory serves well

My run was, however, cut short from Oracle deciding to suddenly and without communication deleting my account and my server. I lost the latest world file (had a backup about a day or 2 old) and obviously had no motivation to try to work with a company that was willing to do that

So basically, if you have access to a (powerful!!!) ARM server, Satisfactory is still a great use case for it. Just make sure you trust your hoster.

However, if you have access to a spare x86 server instead, I would recommend it over ARM. Even a decade old laptop CPU will run laps around modern ARM cpus when emulation is necessary. This would likely change if CoffeeStain ever make a native ARM port of the server.

[bold cloud]

you were probably using too much resources

or simply their policy doesnt allow you to run x86 code on ARM

[compact kettle]

did windows update really cause this or something? (been running this server for a month and what changed?🤣

[sly juniper]

SO is everyone still having issues with the CPU hitting 100%? Becuase mine consistantly caps out and crashes the Satisfactory server on the VM

[tight jay]

am i able to join anyone from the epic games launcher ?

[dusty hazel]

Change ur reliable port for a random high one like 34876

[dusty hazel]

wdym ?

[dusty hazel]

mmh maybe the server wants a reconnection some times

[deep turret]

when you first claim the server you set a password
simply use it to connect to admin panel

[flint lion]

can i make more players on server?

or its just max 4

in server managment i did not found anyhting related

also first loading always takes this long? i loaded my save onto server and now im stuck on loading screen xD

[dusty hazel]

U need to open another port the 8888 TCP

[flint lion]

7777 wont work? or i need both

[dusty hazel]

both

[flint lion]

allright

[dusty hazel]

7777 TCP/UDP and 8888 TCP

[flint lion]

i have opened both ports in firewall, forwarded both thro my router and connecting thro 7777 right? still does not work :/

it says "initializing sequence revive.bat"

[flint lion]

i have this in my client console... and save i have loaded on server

[dusty hazel]

Shouldn't be an issue it's just a warning not a fatal error

gimme the public ip in private

[flint lion]

still stuck on loading screen :/

[flint lion]

well we fixed it with @dusty hazel, changing port helped. 8888 was blocked somehow 🫡

[compact kettle]

Yes I did that months ago, did an update or something require it to need authentication again ? I'm wondering what that was about and why it wanted me to authenticate a month later if it was already running and being claimed a month ago..

[shell delta]

im having problems with infinite loading screen loading in a dedicated server. i can hear my character scrolling the hotbar, shooting the rifle etc. starting a new game doesnt matter. i opened the 8888 port tcp and the 7777 port for tcp and udp . ran the game as administrator, with and without steam running as addministrator. the ports and game are public and private clearance. no diffrence. i assume i need to do something with the server itself but dont know where to start. Anyone know what it might be?

[hidden forge]

Firewall maybe?
something is still blocking the secondary port at least

[dusty hazel]

gimme the public ip in private i can check with you if u still need help

[shell delta]

It got fixed by asking the server hosting to change the 8888 port to something else

[stone tiger]

Is anyone using gportal? We can't get our server to load. It says waiting for server to load and it never does.

[dusty hazel]

make sure ur host opened 2 differents ports for u

[stone tiger]

2 different ports?

[dusty hazel]

yeah the "classic" port the one u put in the server manager and another one the Reliable port

[stone tiger]

Ok, thanks so much.

[dusty hazel]

and tell them to change the setup command if the port is not the default one default are 7777 and 8888

[stone tiger]

Noted, ty

[stone tiger]

Any idea on what would cause this?

Was getting this screen before

But it never finished loading

[timid saffron]

If you can, use VPN. My Server with a Intel 12400/12 cores used up to 100% of that. Some incomming traffic seems to mess up with the Server

After closing all ports and use vpn, its down to 1-2% without anyone connected

[sly juniper]

Hmmm…. It usually takes around 4-6 hours to hit 100% but then I typically have to just restart the VM and the process begins all over again.

[timid saffron]

Correct, sometimes it runs for hours totally normal, and then at 4am when no one is connected it goes nuts

had the same issue on my proxmox lxc

flat after using vpn

@sly juniper

[deft lintel]

Hello, I recently tried to self host a satisfactory server using docker an specifically this image (https://github.com/sa-shiro/Satisfactory-Dedicated-Server-ARM64-Docker). Everything whent smoothly I opened the required ports and when checking the server with nmap and curl I have the expected outputs. However the server shows offline when I launch the game. Does anyone have a clue on what's going on?

[timid saffron]

sry, no arm & docker machine available. only x64 and lxc containers/vm

[deft lintel]

So the specific docker image targeting arm won't work in any cases?

[timid saffron]

cant answer this question, sry

i read above the arm runs fine

[sly juniper]

Yup, having the same issue, I even whitelisted one IP the my buddy uses to deny all excess traffic but it seems to be the factory server continuously eating it up. As soon as I close it, and reboot it, no issue.

[timid saffron]

its a server issue i think, hope for a fix from coffeestrain after holydays

but vpn helps

[timid saffron]

i cant do a batch file, but it should be possible to monitor the server executable and when it uses >60% cpu, restart the server 😉

[sly juniper]

It’s been good for a bit now.

It goes up and down all the time

[timid saffron]

holy, 70% of 24 cores... not bad 😄

This server runs 4 vms (win11/linux mint and so on) and about 10 lxcs for home automation/solar panel control etc

[stone tiger]

Ok, so gportal isnt working out for us, it wont load. Does anyone have any suggestions for a good host?

[lusty tree]

is that your fking phone

[edgy pasture]

@sly juniper as @timid saffron mentioned, vpn tunnels, and removing the port forwards would help, if you are willing to punch holes in networks between the server and clients.

Or you could try changing the (un)reliable messaging port to another random number and hope for improvement.

Past info… in case you haven’t seen it.

#dedicated-servers message

For vpn tunnels, I use Tailscale.

But Wireguard, Radmin VPN, or Logmein Hamachi, or other ways to set up a VPN tunnel would work fine.

[timid saffron]

yep, using wireguard - its one of my lxcs

[coral ginkgo]

It would probably be the former, I imagine they don't care about what you run as long as it isn't including copyrighted media like movies

Either way, it's a real shame that they decided to just cut my account without even a single warning beforehand. If I was using too many resources for too long, let me know so I can actually cut back on it.

[sly juniper]

Yeah, I have my own VPN and I can connect to my home network from my phone 😂

[lusty tree]

i thought you literally installed windows on your phone

i did that one time
never an iphone tho

[sly juniper]

Already got rid of 8888 since it’s used for alternate http traffic

[sly juniper]

Naw, 😂 I’m using a windows 2025 VM on vSphere

[thin tulip]

I want to run two dedicated servers on the same machine, i know I can chance the server port with -Port=7778, but how can I change the secondary port (the 8888 one)?

[hidden forge]

1. It will automatically try the next 512 ports after 8888 until it finds a free one
2. Use "-ReliablePort=XXXX" to choose one

IS IT Possible to disable auto reboot at Midnight in game? im with nitrado

[acoustic pivot]

Ports are forwarded and I'm still getting stuck at a loading screen.

[sly juniper]

Firewall?

[acoustic pivot]

Already created rules for them as well

Multiple people can connect because they can hear themselves in game. It's so odd that its just hanging at loading

[sly juniper]

Send a photo of your start file, firewall, and port forwarding?

[sly juniper]

Add in -unattended and -Port=7777

[dusty hazel]

if u open a cmd with admin rights and do this what do u get

netstat -a -n -o | findstr :8888

while the server is running*

[acoustic pivot]

TCP 0.0.0.0:8888 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING 10008

not ur pub

[acoustic pivot]

Now the server is showing offline. Lemme restart it

I can connect via local IP but still stuck at loading screen and can hear the menu in the background

[dusty hazel]

mind giving me the public ip in private ?

[acoustic pivot]

@dusty hazel is the man! Had to set the TCP rule in the firewall as 2 separate rules instead of combining them and it fixed the issue.

Thank you @sly juniper as well for the troubleshooting efforts!

[dusty hazel]

I think ur host haven't changed ur starting command with the good reliable port

if it is windows server it should be like this FactoryServer.exe -ReliablePort=29901 -Port=29900 -log -unattended

[sly juniper]

I sorted it out. It was the outbound firewall.

[lucid owl]

Hey guys, just a quick question. When my friend have dedicated server, will machines work even when none of us will be on the server?

[dusty hazel]

Hey in game in the manage server the admin can choose to stop or not when no on is connected

autopause something like this

[lucid owl]

Yeah okay, thanks man

[hidden forge]

Yes and no
You can change the time but not completely disable it.
It has to do something with the engine and without a regular reboot it will have problems

[proud depot]

hello, I had a server on 1.0 and since 1.1 came out, I have an error, how can I fix this?

[dusty hazel]

does the server crashes ?

[proud depot]

yes, every time I start, the console comes to this red point and stops working

but I solved it, the latest savefile was corrupted so I loaded a savefile one week earlier and now it works, sucks for the progress but oh well

[dusty hazel]

yeah if it doesn't crash u can ignore but if it does u need to come back to an old save

[grave orbit]

Hello! I'm hosting server locally on pterodactyl and I'm trying to figure out how to import blueprints. There is no SaveGame folder and the blueprints seem to be saved locally on the device I'm playing the game. I had like 30 blueprints in the save I uploaded but after importing it to the server I'm left only with the categories I had. Please help

[violet jetty]

hi, i got a blueprint made in singleplayer onto my server with this:

1. unlock the blueprint milestone
2. place a blueprintdesigner
3. create and save a blueprint (that creates the folder in the server directory)
4. copy the blueprint.sbp and blueprint.sbpcfg into the new blueprints folder
5. start the server

[grave orbit]

I've made a new world(on a sever), unlocked blueprints, made one and saved. It appeared in my local blueprints folder, not on the server. Idk what's wrong. Maybe I'm looking for a wrong directory or something

[violet jetty]

dont know how pterodactyl handles it but my directory looks like this:
/home/steam/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/blueprints/servername
let me read up on it

[grave orbit]

Found it! Thank you

[formal sable]

Can someone remind me how to up the max players on a dedicated server from 4 ?

I set the maxplayers in the Game.ini but I don't think that did anything

[dusty hazel]

add this to ur .bat or start arguments

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

[worn turtle]

Is it normal that on a dedicated server, as a client who has achieved a milestone, I don't receive the unlocked content? When I want to cut down a tree, I receive the resources but it isn't cut down? Everything refreshes when I disconnect and reconnect...
Is there a solution or a fix ?

[dusty hazel]

desynch issues is a well known problem in dedicated server no real fixes

can u check the cpu usage ?

[tribal axle]

Looks like low server performance. I have VM with 18GB of ram and 6 cores of cpu. I achieved 120 tickrate. Runs like a dream.

[rose barn]

been at this for a while now and i keep getting this

Can anyone help?

keeps saying this in command prompt

also yes the server is running and all ports are set up

[drifting hatch]

Is it a local server?

From some searching around Reddit, do you have 7777 open UDP and TCP?

[rose barn]

yes ive troubleshooted so much stuff

nothing is working

[rose barn]

dedicated

[drifting hatch]

How are you running the server, Linux, Windows?

[rose barn]

windows

i mean the server is just for me but i want it to run when im offline

[drifting hatch]

Yea same as what I am doing

[rose barn]

did yours work?

[drifting hatch]

Yes, I run it on Linux

Could be a Windows Firewall issue

[rose barn]

yeah

[drifting hatch]

If it's just a local server and nothing else, you could try disabling the Windows Firewall in Security and see if it works?

[rose barn]

okay

[drifting hatch]

If it does you could make rules for 7777 udp/tcp and re-enable the firewall

[rose barn]

ill try that

[drifting hatch]

or just make the rules allow 7777 tcp and udp without disabling it, allow those inbound

[rose barn]

weird i turned it off and it still didnt work

could be my virus protector maybe

let me turn that off

[drifting hatch]

Perhaps the API server is being blocked, not entirely sure

[rose barn]

imma be honest i have no clue what that means

wait

im dumb

yes i do

[drifting hatch]

Could be your antivirus blocking yea

Something I think is blocking connections

[rose barn]

i turned it off and that wasnt it

[drifting hatch]

Hmm, don't forget to turn these things back on to keep you protected, but not entirely sure to be honest :/

[worn turtle]

The cpu usage is approximately at 30% of it's capacity in average

[rose barn]

The address needs to be my external ip right

[drifting hatch]

Internal IP if it is an internal server

Where is the server running?

On your PC or a PC on your local network?

[rose barn]

on my pc

[drifting hatch]

So IP is 127.0.0.1

[rose barn]

wait waht

how did u know that

[drifting hatch]

127.0.0.1 means "localhost" it points to your own PC

[rose barn]

ohh

wait its working

...

[drifting hatch]

Yay xD

[rose barn]

thats all that has been wrong this whole time 😭

[rose barn]

Thank you so much lol

[drifting hatch]

No problem, glad it's working now 👍 🙂

Turn back on the anti-virus and firewall back to how it was, don't forget 🙂

[rose barn]

Yes thank you for reminding me

[drifting hatch]

Stay safe 👍

[worn turtle]

The server is running on a VM who has 16 cores and 32Go of ram, is it really a performance issue ?

[glad nest]

are you not on newest version? sounds like one of the issues they were trying to fix by adding reliable port

if it still persists they may want logs for this issues on newest version

[worn turtle]

we are on the 1.1 version of the game, but yeah, wierd

[dusty hazel]

the desynch issue is dev sided can happen to any server it's a "bug" can't really do much if u have a good config and low cpu usage only deconnect and reconnect some times

[worn turtle]

oh. so we just have to wait for the devs to fix it when they come back from their summer break ? xDD

[dusty hazel]

Only if they do xD

[worn turtle]

[edgy pasture]

[mystic mist]

how do I get blueprint files into a dedicated server?

I'm running it on linux

[native orchid]

Would changing the Network Quality on server change the "desync" from happening..

I'm not really sure if Desync is the right way, but like if you're building something - then the hologram sticks.

I know its a quick fix with disconnect / connect to server - but still annoying when it happens every 5-10 minutes

[uneven marsh]

guys i got problem

[hexed ruin]

nice

[uneven marsh]

i set up dedicated server on my pc and when i start it for my friends it says not authenticated

and server is offline or something like that

does anybody know how to fix it

for me the server works

i set up firewall tcp and udp 7777

[regal fern]

Has there been any update on the cpu spikes?

[uneven marsh]

nope

we need to do this

OnlineMode=false

but

i dont know where is the server properties file

@regal fern

[regal fern]

thanks

[uneven marsh]

Bruh

[worn turtle]

Got the same issue. Same with the foliage when you cut it with the chainsaw

[fast sable]

Is it normal that after the server auto restarts, the cpu usage goes to 100% usage (from the satisfactory server) and stays there? If I manually restart, it goes back to basically idle until someone joins.

[versed hamlet]

What’s the trick to joining a game through the Server Manager using a controller (specifically Steam Deck)? I was able to add the server, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to select the buttons in the rightmost pane of the interface without switching back to keyboard/mouse mode.

[strong mango]

how is the desync still an issue

like bruh

[dusty hazel]

Did u opened ports on ur router as well ?

u need three rules 7777 TCP/UDP and 8888 TCP

[dusty hazel]

there is some work around if u still want ur server to be on internet and lower cpu spikes

[dusty hazel]

same if u need some workaround feel free to ask

[twilit fox]

sure..

do I need to set OnlineMode=false in the server config?

[dusty hazel]

there is others u can change ur reliable port for a random high one like 45780

[twilit fox]

I can't really afford to have my server eating 30% of my cpu doing nothing.. if someone's playing on it that's fine.. but not at idle.

[wooden bobcat]

kind of wonders what is the estimated timeline for the fix for the reliable port issue?

[dusty hazel]

gimme ur ip in private i'll show u

[twilit fox]

I'm using 15100, and 15300 for reliable port(s)

[wooden bobcat]

my gateway server gets scanned heavily and there is really no way to change port to help the issue. If this is going to say for a while then I might as well make a launcher for my friends

[dusty hazel]

u can use Tailscale or other

[dusty hazel]

if u changed the port already u can alos use Tailscale for example

creating a virtual network so u can't get scanned

[twilit fox]

I can't sadly.

[dusty hazel]

why that ?

[twilit fox]

They're public servers

[dusty hazel]

then do firewall and only allow ur friend's ip

[wooden bobcat]

almost the same idea, just I happens to know some coding thus can make a nice package for my non-tech friend, just want to know if it is worth the effort

[twilit fox]

I mean I don't know who's connecting and from where. they're not exactly for me

[dusty hazel]

it is if u got big issues with it

[twilit fox]

tailscale should be pretty straight forward.

[wooden bobcat]

kinda is. server very loud when pinned at 100%, and is in my apartment 😆

so I wonders if they are fixing it soon(like next week or two) or will it come a couple of months later

[twilit fox]

Mine doesn't get any louder, it just's the added power cost for nothing lol

[fast sable]

Yeah, what are some workarounds for it?

My server is hosted on a VM in unraid behind cloudflare/nginx

[dusty hazel]

as say above ur can either change the reliable port for a high or use firewall to only allow ur friend's ip or use a vpn like Tailscale

[fast sable]

I guess I don't understand what the route cause of high CPU usage is, after a manual server restart the high CPU usage issue stops. Until someone joins it, it stays at basically zero % usage. How does changing the port fix it?

[dusty hazel]

gimme ur ip in prviate i'll show u

[wooden bobcat]

From what i know is the reliable port (default 8888) get port scanned. It is using raw, plain text tcp so more likely to get triggered

[twilit fox]

just be ready to restart your servers after he shows you lol

[wooden bobcat]

my guess on the port actually cause the paused level to load when sent garbage data (as I see a lot of level loading logs roughly corresponds to high CPU) and somehow never releases

[twilit fox]

[2025.07.15-05.00.04:932][220]LogWorld: UWorld::CleanupWorld for Persistent_Level, bSessionEnded=true, bCleanupResources=true I've got a bunch of this spammed in my log from when it was pegged.

no mention of accepting a connection in the log. it's almost like they forgot port scanning was a thing.

[fast sable]

That's what I was kinda thinking was happening but wasn't sure

[uneven marsh]

I have tmobile @dusty hazel

It doesnt support

[wooden bobcat]

btw, this is what happens if garbage actually went through the port

[twilit fox]

then you cannot host. sry

[uneven marsh]

Or can i do it on tmobile somrhow

[twilit fox]

not really no.

[uneven marsh]

k

and any other option how to host it?

[twilit fox]

wireless isps.. starlink, tmobile,verizon and even some wired places give you what's called a cgnat.

with a cgnat, you don't have an external ip.

[uneven marsh]

so i can give up

[twilit fox]

you can use a hosting provider.. you could also try using tailscale.

[uneven marsh]

something free?

[twilit fox]

I think tailscale can punchthrough if someone on the network can open a port. (your friend on the other end)

tailscale is free, yes.

[uneven marsh]

yea but my friends are dumb as fuck and doesnt give a shit so they doesnt even try

[uneven marsh]

and its hosting or?

[twilit fox]

so, I shouldn't say it's not possible.. it's just much more complicated.

[wooden bobcat]

Hosting usually cost something

You might try to get proxy service though

[twilit fox]

Yeah, I can host.. but I can't do it for free.. my hardware, electricty, internet cost.

[uneven marsh]

i dont have money for this

[twilit fox]

it cost me roughly $30 a month in electricty to host my own stuff. x:

[wooden bobcat]

There are some free offerings, but beware that these usually comes with some caveats

[uneven marsh]

huh

what

[dusty hazel]

u can use Tailscale if u have cgnat

[uneven marsh]

so what

what should i do to work

[twilit fox]

they said their friends arn't going to be willing.. it's worth a try i guess

[uneven marsh]

my friend cant even find admin password

[dusty hazel]

it's just an app on the computer and a mail to accept

if u have cgnat there is no other possibilities than vpn

[uneven marsh]

so is there like tutorial?

[dusty hazel]

youtube.com/watch?v=sPdvyR7bLqI&t=124s&ab_channel=Tailscale

add the https

[uneven marsh]

thx

and if i gonna do that it should work?

[dusty hazel]

yes

it create a private network and a new public ip

[twilit fox]

Goodluck. And ditch the tmobile internet lol

[uneven marsh]

xdd thx

[twilit fox]

It's decent for browsing and streaming, but it's not very stable for gaming..

I have it as a backup lol

[uneven marsh]

i see but how to use my wifi and host it?

[dusty hazel]

damn 0.2kb/s download ?

[twilit fox]

That's current usage xD

[dusty hazel]

oh

i was afraid for a sec xD

[twilit fox]

Not sure why it posted my actual ip there. I'm right next to a tmobile tower too

[uneven marsh]

BRUH

my wifi is 200

:D

[wooden bobcat]

that is impressively slow for a tower in a major city

[twilit fox]

Right now. But later you might drop to 50.

I think it's congested where I'm at.

Depending on the time of day, it'll drop to 80.. or go up to 400

[uneven marsh]

bro

you got 1gb 5 sec

[dusty hazel]

and i can't go up cause my ethernet won't support past 2.5gb

[uneven marsh]

bruh

[twilit fox]

It's supposed to be symmetrical, thanks at&t

I'm stuck on wifi for pretty much everything except for where my server is.. I thank whoever built my house for making parts of the attic inaccessible for that.

[wooden bobcat]

about that home hosting stuff. The way I do it is to rent a VPS for network proxy and host the software at home. usually pretty cheap if you does not want much compute on the cloud, but the IPs you get are generally quite dirty for low prices.

[twilit fox]

I've thought about doing that

Setup a wireguard client and nginx on the vps and tunnel it back to my wireguard server.

[wooden bobcat]

usually works better latency/loss wise than direct ipv6 across networks as clouds tend to get better peering, unless you are paying big bucks on internet

[fallen cradle]

Hi, I haven't been playing satisfactory with a dedicated server since 1.0

Can someone tell me if there have been improvements to the dedicated server in terms of stability and performance?

[fast sable]

gotta love symmetrical fiber

[dusty hazel]

[dusty hazel]

dang

[fallen cradle]

Don't do this to me 😭

[dusty hazel]

as a matter of fact it's worse

[fallen cradle]

UE5 was a mistake

[dusty hazel]

the game is amazing there's no doubt but dedicated server :/

[fast sable]

your cpu is still sitting at 30% even after switching the default ports from 8888 and 7777 to 15100 and 15300?

[dusty hazel]

btw i didn't asked but is it 30% global usage or 30% of a single thread ?

[fast sable]

global

[dusty hazel]

how would u know ?

[fast sable]

unraid shows me overall load

[dusty hazel]

oh okok

[dusty hazel]

i thought u speaked for wolf

have u changed the reliable port urself ?

[fast sable]

i have not

[dusty hazel]

gimme ur pub ip in private i'm gonna show u something

[fast sable]

what are you going to show me lol

[dusty hazel]

something really cool xD

[fast sable]

your gonna piss off my router i can already tell lmao

[dusty hazel]

nah only ur server

i wo'nt connect through the game tho

[fast sable]

half the msgs in the server say are just this spammed

[dusty hazel]

yeah that's why u got 40% usage

[fast sable]

yeah, how do i change the port? is there a config file somewhere?

[dusty hazel]

open another port and add this in the start arguments -ReliablePort=xxxx

open a random high one

like in the 45000

[fast sable]

where is the start args?

do you have a gui for the server or just a cmd prompt

[dusty hazel]

windows or linux ?

[fast sable]

windows

[dusty hazel]

make a .bat to start with arg

FactoryGame.exe -Port=7777 -ReliablePort=xxxx -log -unattended

[fast sable]

alright

[worn turtle]

One thing I've noticed is that other players on the same server don't have this problem, it's just me who seems to be desync xD

[dusty hazel]

that's the principle of desynch if u destroy the tree they gonna see it destroyed and not u xD

but weird it's not the other way around sometimes idk

[fast sable]

you would need to replace FactoryGame.exe with FactoryServer.exe for this to work

[dusty hazel]

i wrote fast maybe i did a mistake

[fast sable]

Here's a .bat from chat gpt with a auto restart on server crash script built in. You don't need to have this .bat file in your server folder if you don't want, you could keep it on your desktop.

title Satisfactory Server Auto-Restart
cd /d "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Satisfactory server\satisfactory"

REM change "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Satisfactory server\satisfactory" to where your FactoryServer.exe is located

:loop
echo === Starting Satisfactory Server ===
start /wait FactoryServer.exe -Port=7777 -ReliablePort=xxxxx -log -unattended

REM change -ReliablePort=xxxxx to what you want

echo === Server exited or crashed ===
echo Restarting in 10 seconds...
timeout /t 10 >nul
goto loop```

[dusty hazel]

i know u just have to specify the path

[fast sable]

yeah

[dusty hazel]

if u put the .bat in the server folder where factoryserver.exe is u don't need to specify more

[fast sable]

yeah

[rocky raptor]

Why might my save show zero blueprints, yet the BP folder on the computer is full?

[dusty hazel]

the server save u mean ?

[rocky raptor]

Yes, why might my server show zero BPs? I should have hundreds, and I can easily find them in the games folder structure.

[dusty hazel]

maybe they save locally and not on the server folder

just copy them inside

[formal sable]

.... Is the dedicated server software updated on a different schedule then the client game files ?

... Or is the dedicated server software only updated when the client is updated ?

[dusty hazel]

both have the same version

[formal sable]

... I think my server updated last night (when I ran a manual update), even though I updated it back a few weeks ago ..

what is the console command to check server version ?

[dusty hazel]

there was no recent update no ?

[formal sable]

there was an update 3-4 weeks back

[dusty hazel]

yeah but not recently

like 2-3 days

[formal sable]

Well, like I said, I ran an update and it appears to have updated (I did a 'fresh' install basically, and I wound up with more files than before).... So I might be confused ....

Is there a build-date anywhere in the files ?

[dusty hazel]

i don't know the command :/

[rocky raptor]

I'm def looking at the server. It's not the same machine as the client

[mild thunder]

If you copied the blueprints to the server did you create one in game first before you copied them and then restarted the server?

[rocky raptor]

I did not copy them to the server. The server was fine yesterday, I went to bed, woke up, now it does not load the BPs.

[sweet yacht]

Can anyone tell me why the satisfactory server wiill start using CPU over time, even when no one is playing and its just idling? My CPUs will go from 3% usage to 15%+ usage after several hours :/

[rocky raptor]

I fixed it. I had to delete all my BPs from yesterday :<

None of them had special characters

I used tiny nudges from Infinite Nudge in them but no more than I normally do.

[dapper nova]

Anyone want to make a crazy nuclear power plant?
This would be a new save and the goal is to make a full cycle nuclear power plant and we would use all the uranium in the world! And we would make it look aesthetically pleasing! Oh and this will be a dedicated server!

[fast sable]

Change your Reliableport to something other than 8888 using a .bat file
#dedicated-servers message

Is it possible to increase the max player count?

[unkempt verge]

What is the difference between -Port, -ReliablePort, -QueryPort, and -ExternalReliablePort

[hidden forge]

Port is for the base game port, default 7777
ReliablePort is the new addditional port for large game updates, default 8888
ExternalReliablePort is to tell the Server the external port when sime ind of port remapping is done to the reliableport
Queryport is pre 1.0 and no longer in use

(Disclaimer: these are the names passed directly to the server binary, if a container or other wrapper renames them the names might be different)

[unkempt verge]

Thx

[dusty hazel]

yes just add this to ur .bat

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

[fast sable]

Alright 👍

My server CPU usage is fixed btw, appreciate the help yesterday @dusty hazel

[dusty hazel]

that's good to know !

[sweet yacht]

I was using -serverqueryport=15800 Changed it to -ReliablePort=15800 So far no issues 🙂

[dusty hazel]

Don't worry the new update does NOT change a thing to dedicated servers

[fast sable]

pulled the update from steam CMD but it didnt seem to actually update?

[dusty hazel]

mmmh mine did just fine did u reboot ?

[fast sable]

if your talking about rebooting the satisfactory server, then yes

[dusty hazel]

have u done the update while the server was off ?

[fast sable]

yes

[dusty hazel]

what do u get in the console ?

[velvet badge]

Have these changed (Im running the docker container from wolveix)? I dont see EOS and Steam on the wiki

I also dont have the same files.
I have Engine.ini and GameUserSettings.ini but the wiki lists Game.ini and Scalability.ini as well that are missing for me. Should I create the files and add these lines?

[fast sable]

@dusty hazel Found the issue, steamcmd was installing the update in the default location, forgot I moved it into its own folder

[compact kettle]

Gotta check the server now darnit.

[tawny blaze]

Anyone else have issue with wrecks not working that require power, hooking the power grid or even stand alone biofuel gens it doesnot power them up even though there is plenty of power

[fallow crypt]

Did the last update fix the CPU issue with the port thing?

[frosty wren]

Hi. Weird question. Got a dedicated server running via the Steam tool. Running on my box. When I join, there's major ping spikes and I constantly desync (eg: if I upgrade something via the fixit terminal, I have to relog to see the newly available schematics). For why?

Other players do not have these issues

[compact kettle]

you on wifi?

[dusty hazel]

no

[dusty hazel]

check cpu usage

[frosty wren]

Nope. Hardwired. 2GB connection

GBps

[frosty wren]

Oooo will do

[frosty wren]

While logged in with client or just simply server?

[dusty hazel]

either

[frosty wren]

Term is 0.1%

[compact kettle]

well.. if you know your connection is pretty stable and that sounds stable, so it sounds like 'amazing' coding of the game itself strikes ..??

[dusty hazel]

0.1% idle ?

[frosty wren]

If it helps, I ran a server last year with none of these problems

.1 CPU usage

[dusty hazel]

the server just restarted ?

[frosty wren]

Been up ~5m

.2 now

[dusty hazel]

ok wanna see something cool ?

gimme the serv adress in private

[frosty wren]

Yeahhhhhhh... No offense, I want your help, but I'm gonna need a description of this coolness prior to dumping my IP to a rando on the interwebs 🙂

There's a player connected if that's the angle

[dusty hazel]

understandable then go here and check ur reliable port 5 times then look for ur cpu usage again
dnschecker.org/port-scanner.php

[frosty wren]

Went from .7 to 0

[dusty hazel]

so server crashed ?

[frosty wren]

Nope

[dusty hazel]

can't be 0

[frosty wren]

Very much zero

Now back to .2-.7

[dusty hazel]

what port did u scanned ?

[frosty wren]

Range. All game ports. Including 7777

[dusty hazel]

do 8888

[frosty wren]

Should mention results are "timed out"

But also no change in processor utilization

[dusty hazel]

with the 1.1 u must open 2 ports the 7777 and a new one the reliable port default is 8888

[frosty wren]

Both are open

[dusty hazel]

but get timed out on the website ?

[frosty wren]

Also 15777

Yes

[dusty hazel]

some firewall enabled ?

15777 isn't necessary anymore

[frosty wren]

BitDefender, but Satisfactory and Firefox are exceptions

[dusty hazel]

anyway my point was that if ur reliable port get scanned online the cpu usage will spike and will not decrease and could cause desynch

[frosty wren]

Define reliable port?

[dusty hazel]

the new port u must open in order to be able to play on a dedicated server

[frosty wren]

So, to clairfy, if that were the case, wouldn't other users have the same issues?

[dusty hazel]

by definition desynch happen to one person like u would cut a tree it will not disappear for u but would for others

but can happen to any of the player if the cpu is the issue

[frosty wren]

That is definitely happening to exclusively me

[dusty hazel]

but there is a lot of desynch issue possible

[frosty wren]

So you're suggesting it's a port forwarding issue?

Should 8888 be TCP or TCP/UDP?

[dusty hazel]

can be, only TCP

[frosty wren]

Yeah that all checks out

[dusty hazel]

but in ur case if u can't port scan it then the issue isn't cpu and unfortunatly we can't do much more :/

[frosty wren]

So system side

Was really hoping not to clean install hahaha

[dusty hazel]

yeah they need to fix dedicated server

[frosty wren]

Would running via SteamCMD potentially improve the situation, you think?

[dusty hazel]

same shit

[frosty wren]

Thought so. Same install yeah?

[dusty hazel]

yeah install via steamcmd open ports and run that's pretty straight forward

[frosty wren]

Oh I mean it's just downloading the same tool

[dusty hazel]

oh i mean yeah

[frosty wren]

Happen to know the filepath for the server cfg file?

[dusty hazel]

via steamtool idk where it is but look for engine.ini

[wicked knot]

n the install dir, under the saved subfolder

[frosty wren]

Satis~ or Server dir?

[wicked knot]

in the server install dir

the server has no req for the game to be installed

[frosty wren]

Ah, yes, got it, thank you

Is the -unattended arg necessary?

If not using specific ports?

[dusty hazel]

from the wiki

-Unattended Makes it such that the Dedicated Server will not present any dialogs which might otherwise interrupt the server from running if not attended to. This option is enabled by default when launching on Linux.

[frosty wren]

So no. What about multihome?

[dusty hazel]

no need if u run 1 server

[frosty wren]

Shazbot

Makes no freakin sense to me that the host would have these issues and not any of the external logins

System must be borked

[dusty hazel]

can be because the game and server runs on the same hardware i don't really know

[frosty wren]

But in prior iterations of the game, zero problems running for over 260hrs?

[dusty hazel]

yeah 1.1 added some issues ^^

[frosty wren]

Sad man

[compact kettle]

just for kicks, open CMD and type :

ping 8.8.8.8 -t

see if you get some great under 18ms times..

[frosty wren]

Max is 13

WAIT there's a 15

[compact kettle]

mine suck

what a terrible machine/connection 🤣

[frosty wren]

Ooof

[compact kettle]

Wifi 7 my @ss... 🤣

[frosty wren]

No I'm the dummy that pays for stupid fast internet. Funny story - ISP tech was shocked I got 1.8Gbps and didn't understand why. Had to explain that most motherboards don't come stock with a 2.5-5Gbps ethernet card onboard

Makes me sad for CA ISP customers buying fast internet

Machine's ten years old but still holding strong with a moderately current video card. Large chance I just need to wipe the OS and install clean I'm guessing

Either that or I'll just live vicariously through the other three players

[mystic mist]

how do I update my server?

[compact kettle]

OK well i know what my problem is now!

[frosty wren]

Aw shit. I got to you

TBF most ISPs have garbage upload unless you spring for fiber

If you're in Northern CA Sonic is the GOAT

[compact kettle]

Yeah I"m not at home but when I am, (I went with ATT fiber.. )and well speed tests show 800-970 MBPS for both down/up

[frosty wren]

Ick. Probably that garbage fiber-over-copper companies are peddling

Errr... You have an adequate ethernet card for over 1Gbps?

[compact kettle]

it was 1Gig though so I was happy enough

[frosty wren]

Ooooh

[compact kettle]

I just have the 1gig from ATT

I didn't jump on the 2+gig

not yet... 🤔

[frosty wren]

It's probably fiber-over-copper - upload speeds still top at like 20mbps or so

[dusty hazel]

steamcmd +force_install_dir <game_server_directory_change_this> +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

i wonder how much u pay for internet in ur country ?

[compact kettle]

oh no i saw upload at 800+ so they dedicated a line to the house.. and I know they did because we had so many calls out for a tech they finally got sick of it and dedicated a line to our house.. assuming it's not another copper .. but i certainly get higher than 20mbps uploads..

[frosty wren]

126USD for 2Gbps

[dusty hazel]

i have 2.5gb speed too and i pay 46 dollars

[frosty wren]

Oh wild

[compact kettle]

he must be in some 'wild' country..

[dusty hazel]

for internet and television

[compact kettle]

🤣

[dusty hazel]

i'm in france

[frosty wren]

I'm in the silicon valley. Everything super expensive

[dusty hazel]

in france one operator broke prices 20 years ago and data is super cheap from back then

like my phone with unlimited 5g is 10 euros

[frosty wren]

It's nice to hear your companies in France don't want to explore your rectum with their clenched hand.

[dusty hazel]

xD they were but an operator named 'FREE' changed the game

and the others had to adapt or no clients

[compact kettle]

I think it was that when I did it

[frosty wren]

We have a company called Sonic doing that, but the way it works in the US prevents them expanding quick enough to hit the market hard

Like, to run fiber you have to rent space on telephone poles from local jurisdictions, means you need enough users in an area to lay the framework for deployment

Kinda nutty

[dusty hazel]

yeah..

actually mu fiber offer can go up to 8gb/s

but i don't have the right hardware

[wicked knot]

I got fiber from my electric coop

[mystic mist]

ty

[frosty wren]

Eh

Only 70USDish for a 10Gbps card

[dusty hazel]

yeah but i need an adaptator on the router to actualy delivers 10gb

[frosty wren]

Ooooh good point

250-300USD

For a router

[dusty hazel]

as i don't really need it rn i'm good with 2.5gbps

[frosty wren]

Someday we'll look back on this conversation and sigh longingly for the good old days

"Less than 100Gbps?! What is this garbage?!"

[dusty hazel]

[frosty wren]

There's actually an interesting story behind the stock photo that made that meme

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3WnvDtDD2M

[compact kettle]

hilarious

found my 1st speedtest after getting 1gig Fiber..

[frosty wren]

Such a sweet and kindhearted dude for a guy named "hide the pain harold"

[frosty wren]

That must've felt awesome hahaha

I'm literally in google-town and can't get google fiber

[frosty wren]

Okay. I have discovered the answer to my problem is logging in and out until it doesn't happen

[strange musk]

hello! im trying to get the wwolveix's docker container working but hwen i try to join i see this. UFW is off, im running it on an ubuntu server, ports are forwarded on my router even tho im on same lan. docker is showing those ports when i use docker ps. any advice?

this will be my first time connecting to it to claim it

Also is there somewhere i can go to get a claim token? I saw in the config of it it had a line for me to put a token in

[steep bloom]

I didn't see it in the patch notes but I was hoping they would fix it,
but still having desync issues with latest patch on dedicated servers.

[strange musk]

I just had one working on a windows vm but I reset that pc cuz im going to sell it 😔

[solid bolt]

How do I update server if it is on separate hosting?

[strange musk]

Is your server working?

[solid bolt]

yes

just need update after hotfix due to version mismatch

[strange musk]

what r u running the server on?

[solid bolt]

PufferPanel

[solid bolt]

⬆️

[twilit fox]

for 10gbe gateways you're looking at fiber networking too.. gateway with 10G sfp ports, a core switch with a 10gbe sfp and 2.5gbe copper. 10gb copper sfp's run hot af.

kind of pointless for home use.

[frosty wren]

I've had a bit to drink but I think we agree fiber over copper is nonsense

[twilit fox]

getting 2.5gbe to a pc is easy enough, and is nice, getting 10gbe to a pc is really only worth it if it's a NAS or server that benefits from it.

did the dedi's get any love this update?

[frosty wren]

Eh, the company I worked for had no problems with the experimental customers.

But that was pure fiber

But as you mention, the speed posed no benefit past a certain point

At least... not for their porn boxes and vidja games 😂

[strange musk]

good news i got it working, bad news when i try to load any save file to the server i get this

using steam cmd

[dusty hazel]

Hey could u send ur docker_compose pls

[dusty hazel]

Do u have access to a console on ur host service ?

[solid bolt]

I have console

[dusty hazel]

ok first of all did u reboot ?

[solid bolt]

Why would it help?
No I didn’t *

[dusty hazel]

the server needs to reboot in order to update

[solid bolt]

Did think I need, since I didn’t put any new files

Trying wouldn’t hurt

[dusty hazel]

if ur server is hosted by a 3rd part they must have some auto update after reboot

like some version check at eahc start

[solid bolt]

We put server ourselves

I just wasn;t the one to do it

but I have full access

yeah, restarting didn't do anything

[dusty hazel]

ok then shut down the server and do this

steamcmd +force_install_dir <game_server_directory_change_this> +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

be sure to change the path

[solid bolt]

not sure to what thould I change path. Could you give an example?

[dusty hazel]

like this for example

G:\Steam\steam\games

but the folder where ur server is

[solid bolt]

server isn't on my PC

my file root looks like this

[dusty hazel]

try this

steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir . +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

[solid bolt]

nothing seems to happen when I type into console. Seems like I have to deal with that first

[dusty hazel]

seems ur console is for ingame purpose not to connect to the pc

server is windows or linux ?

[solid bolt]

linux 99% sure

[dusty hazel]

then can u connect through ssh to the pc ?

[solid bolt]

yes

I have winSCP

[dusty hazel]

then connect through ssh and do the update here

[solid bolt]

how do I update through here?

this, right?

I assume, I need to get server files somewhere?

[dusty hazel]

still with the command

steamcmd +login anonymous +force_install_dir /home/steam/SatisfactoryServer +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

but winscp is for windows if i'm not wrong

[surreal smelt]

can you ssh and type steamcmd

[solid bolt]

iirc, it's app for windows, not for windows based servers

at least I've been managing other servers we have on this hosting

And I have LinuxServer folder on server, so i figured it's linux

[buoyant dune]

well if you ssh into it (not ftp or sftp) you would see it

[surreal smelt]

"Create a user account named steam to run SteamCMD safely, isolating it from the rest of the operating system.

Warning:
Do not run steamcmd while operating as the root user. Doing so is a security risk."

remember that bug when steam would wipe all of ur mounted data ? xD

[solid bolt]

I only have SFTP information avaliable

[buoyant dune]

then get a ssh client or connect via terminal

[solid bolt]

OK, ty. I'll try

[buoyant dune]

uhhh am still running it as root when i update hmmmmm insert this is fine gif

[dusty hazel]

xD

[drifting hatch]

Is there much benefit running a LAN server greater than 30 tickrate?

[gleaming crystal]

how do i downgrade my satisfactory, i am not the owner of the server

[twilit fox]

Log into it with ssh.. open cmd, type ssh youruser@serversip

You can login as root.. and probably switch users with sudo -u username -s

[small citrus]

Hey guys ! I have a dedicated server that i set myself, and i'm having trouble with CPU usage after short uptimes (seems like im not the only one according to this channel and forum). I was using reliable port 8888 and it seems you guys recommanded changing it from default value

Is it the only port you recommand changing ?

And also, 3h seems to be the threshold to high cpu usages so i need to setup the arg to reboot every 3h can someone help me ?

[fast sable]

Not sure if this was answered already but it's the game.ini file
C:\Users\[YourUsername]\AppData\Local\FactoryGame\Saved\Config\WindowsServer

[fast sable]

Yes change the reliable port from 8888 to something random, like 45000. Fixed my high CPU usage.

[small citrus]

Yes i did

Port and ReliablePort both to 15800 and 15801

And improved tickrate to 60 tho seems nice for now

i'll update through the apm

[fast sable]

Is that something that you can manually change or was it just running better after changing ports? I think I remember seeing my tickrate being 30

[small citrus]

Yeah through the Engine.ini file

[fast sable]

Is there a command that needs to be put in there or is it a value already in there you can adjust?

[small citrus]

Wait im tryiing to copy it lol

[/Script/OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver]

How can I downgrade a server?

[small citrus]

After 2 hours up still no lags even with 2 players 🙂

[small citrus]

Why do you want to downgrade ?

[hidden forge]

You don't

[dusty hazel]

why would u want to downgrade it ?

[green sentinel]

i have a friend group and a friend of a friend is begging me for some reason

i dont know how any of this works btw

also, is 1.1.1.1 the latest version

[dusty hazel]

seems like a cracked version ^^

u can downgrade a server but it's tedious

[worn turtle]

the desync issue was not patched in the 1.1.1.2 update qwq

me is sad

[green sentinel]

bruhh

he is from a third world country so i could expect that

[dusty hazel]

to downgrade u would need to look on steamdb find the depotID u need and do this command in a steam cmd

download_depot 1690800 <DepotID> <ManifestID>

[green sentinel]

alr... does this count as illegal? like im not actually pirating the game

also is the latest version 1.1.1.2?

[dusty hazel]

no that's not illegal, yes that's the latest version came out 1 or 2 days ago

[green sentinel]

oh ok thanks lol

Sorry for taking so long I was afk

[dusty hazel]

u miss a port rule 7777 TCP

[strange musk]

needs to be both udp/tcp or just tcp?

[dusty hazel]

7777 TCP/UDP and 8888 TCP

[solid bolt]

turns out, my server had to be updated through github by taking updating manifests and getting update files from steamDB. That shit was above my paytgrade. TY to evertyone who tryed to help BTW

[strange musk]

aside from that all is well?

[dusty hazel]

mine looks like this ```services:
satisfactory:
image: wolveix/satisfactory-server:latest
container_name: satisfactory_ds
ports:
- "7777:7777/udp"
- "7777:7777/tcp"

restart: unless-stopped

deploy:

    reservations:

i put xxxx instead of my actual ports

but it's the tcp

8888

[strange musk]

so where u have xxxx is actually 8888? sorry im new to homelabbing in general

[dusty hazel]

yeah i just don't want to share my reliable port

i changed it taht's why

[strange musk]

and when u add it in the server manager inside the game u use port 7777 right?

[dusty hazel]

yes

[strange musk]

what is the purpose/ reason behind changing the xxxx to a idfferent port than 8888?

[dusty hazel]

if it get scanned the cpu usage skyrocket as 8888 is quite common and not far from 8080 changing it make it less likely to get scanned

dude ur the goat fr

thank you so freaking much

[dusty hazel]

no problems try it and tell me if it works

[strange musk]

so far it seems to have worked i succesfully loaded my save and joined without any issues. but im on the same lan as server so ill keep posted if my brother can join

[dusty hazel]

gimme the ip i can try

[strange musk]

no offense and i hope yoiu dont take this the wrong way but you are far more knowledgeable than me on this stuff and i def have some cyber security knowledge to gain before im comfy giving someone on he internet my ip

[dusty hazel]

yeah that's alright don't worry

[strange musk]

but i greatly appreciate the help and ill lyk if ur still currious. i was about to head out and moww but i saw ur message asking about the docker compose file so i hopped on before

[dusty hazel]

if u still need help afterward feel free to ask

[buoyant dune]

(bad scanner if it doesnt check the first full 10k tho lol) but true fact

[fossil lodge]

So I saw someone talking about hosting with docker compose. Im currently running on heroic on my Linux vm. My friend has an issue where he places a block and he has to re-log for it to be where it is? Would docker fix this issue instead of using a windows server on a Linux machine? And how would I transfer save data seamlessly if I do this route?

[dusty hazel]

wouldn't change much but the save transfer is easy just do it on the management page in game

check cpu usage

[dusty hazel]

if u can

[fossil lodge]

My CPU utilization is around 75 % but is is a ryzen 5 5600x on proxmox. Should I lower tick rate from 60? Although the lag still appeared for him. He says its happening every 5 to 10mins now.

[jolly pewter]

evening everyone. i have a dedicated server in US cen. needing some help ive started a truck station and about to start a mega factory for mass production of parts... and to get threw phase 3... just need some help moving things around... i have my steel ingot set up to almost 100k a hour but the flow isnt there yet... plus i have to move it from where its being done at to the floor where ill start making parts... if anyone has any good factory set ups that could help i would love it... also have my own discord to run a voice chat out of... thanks

[restive orchid]

Are the devs aware of the bug with dedicated servers rn with progression and building desync that forces you to re-log? it gets quite annoying having to re-log so often lol. I heard it's not a server config issue and actually a current game netcode bug

[dusty hazel]

Yes they are

check ur cpu usage too

[restive orchid]

ah okay thanks! I assume there aren't any better workarounds than relogging? and cpu usage or RAM aren't an issue

[dusty hazel]

No really fixes but high cpu can cause desynch

[fickle kite]

I'm not sure what to search for exactly but I setup a server for some friends, they can connect but they only see tips? I see them spawn in game but they only see a tips screen?

[dusty hazel]

u need to open a second port 8888 TCP on top of 7777 TCP/UDP

[fickle kite]

really?

[dusty hazel]

yes

[restive orchid]

I'm just using a tickrate of 30 atm though the cpu could probably handle 90 easily so definitely not a cpu usage issue xD the only desync is with milestone progression, MAM, awesome shop purchases, occasionally placing builds, etc.

[fickle kite]

ok i'll give it a shot! thanks 🙂

[restive orchid]

the server just doesn't feed those updates to the player sometimes

[dusty hazel]

yeah if u don't have high cpu usage then u need to wait an update

[restive orchid]

yeah.. I'm pretty sure increasing tickrate wouldn't help that either, but I might try upping it to at least 60 anyway

[frosty wren]

What’s it mean when you get a slew of “ServerMove” messages?

LogNetPlayerMovement Warning ServerMove TimeStampExpired…

[desert notch]

Any of you also got a bug where you cant dismantle really complex blueprints on a dedi server?

Also takes a few clicks to place them sometimes too

[bleak meteor]

after updating through steamcmd server version is 416835 is that correct? I don't think that's the right version but trying re-update says its already up to date

[grizzled condor]

anybody have a temporary fix for the sever using 100% on single cores often?

if i restart the server its fine for a while but after a bit i will go right back up to 100% on one of the 12 cores and stays there.

[dusty hazel]

i think ur making the update in the wrong folder

[dusty hazel]

change ur reliable port for a high one like in the 45000

[agile snow]

Hello, i want to start a new game with some friends and we will be looking for a dedicated server, we're from the EU.
Would anyone know any good stable host we could use?

[native orchid]

Having just used Pingplayers hosting - and can't really recommend them..

Their server admin panel ain't fully coorporated with Satisfactory, so default settings has to be done via Ingame settings, and Filemanager.

And also you have no overview of hardware usage, so you can't see CPU or RAM status of the server, although they advertise you can :)

[agile snow]

Thank you, I appreciate it

[fossil lodge]

Question I used bash FactoryServer.sh -ReliablePort 45xxx
I changed my firewall rules but now when a client connects to the server they are getting loading screen only and not gameplay. They can hear their character? Is this my fault as server owner improperly configuring server somewhere?

[grizzled condor]

What do you mean by reliable port? And youre saying the port number will fix the high single core CPU problem?.. That seems strange.

[dusty hazel]

reliable port is by default is 8888 and once it get port scanned ur cpu usage will spike and not decrease until u reboot changing for a high random one mean it has less chances to get scanned

[grizzled condor]

Wow interesting. I've read through the server wiki and can't find anywhere that shows how to change that port. Is this a startup argument or something you change in a config?

[dusty hazel]

easiest is a .bat if ur on windows and do FactoryServer.exe -port=7777 -ReliablePort=urnewport -log -unattended

[grizzled condor]

Awesome thanks for the help!. I am on Linux and funny enough I'm using a platform that they say doesn't work. (proxmox VE) so its a virtual machine. With no issues except this lol. But I'll try this out! Thanks again.

[dusty hazel]

if ur on linux make a .sh then

proxmox is ok i saw some servers running on it

[grizzled condor]

Yep. I've set it up as a systemd service. So I should be able to just modify that file with the startup argument

[dusty hazel]

if u want to try urself port scan ur server ip with the 8888 port and look ur cpu usage

[grizzled condor]

Yep I'll do that.

[hidden forge]

What are the new firewall rules?

[fossil lodge]

Its the same as before just copied my rules for 8888 port and changed it to my 45xxx port number. So I dont think its my firewall. I think I found the problem. I need to edit the bash script and place the arguments there instead of calling the script then arguments.
Kinda wish I could change all this information in engine.ini folder, instead of arguments to run after executing.

[hidden forge]

arguments to run after executing.
Arguments are passed to the executable. Difference is only if it's read frim the ini or read from the cli/arguments

[grizzled condor]

The config file setup definitely leave much to be desired with this game lol. There needs to be one place and one file that you can edit with all the server parameters in it just like most other games.

[fossil lodge]

I agree with ya there. I can't imagine doing moded statisfactory but I haven't tried so it could be easy....

[warm forum]

Is there a fix for the high cpu usage? i always get 100% after some time

[buoyant dune]

dont think theres a fix to this and the desync

[dusty hazel]

change ur reliable port for a high random one that should do it for now

[feral shuttle]

It's probably something I just completely forgot about, but I update the server through steamcdm and fully reinstalled it, but I always get the mismatch. Do I need to switch to an "experimental" version of the dedicated server?

[finite python]

Hey, I need help desperately. Im trying to set up a server to a remote Server PC and have been almost 90% successful but everytime i have gone to join the server it get stuck on "Initalizing_respawn_sequence.bat" and i never load in. Iv reinstalled the server twice and tried with new world but it seems to always hook up on that part and never move past it. Any help would be appreciated im at my witts end.

[small citrus]

I had that… my save was from 1.0 and after 1.1 i can’t Connect anymore…

[finite python]

i fixed it

[small citrus]

I created a New game

[finite python]

apprently you NEED to have the port 8888 also port forwarded

and the suddenly 4 hours of headache gone

it never said that on any offical guides or wikis

for windows 11 steam CMD ran servers anyway

[hidden forge]

(even if "https api" for 8888 is not correct)

[dusty hazel]

On the offical Wiki*

[silver moss]

is there a technical blog post or something that describes how the dedicated server works?

[hidden forge]

You mean like the internal workings or just how to host one?

[silver moss]

Internal workings

[hidden forge]

Nothing official AFAIK
But can't be much different than the client. Take out all graphics, add an external management capabilities, tweak it a bit to make it run unattended and without a play and yours done.
The game already let's you host for others and join via IP

[silver moss]

The rough way it works is easy to guess but I'm interested in the details 😄

[grizzled condor]

you were right! i switched the Reliableport and now the cpu usage is way lower. only about 3% vs before it would spike on one core and stay at 100% and other cores would be in the 20s

[dusty hazel]

Nice ! but that only a small bandage it can happen again someday

[proud mirage]

i got a question about friends joining my server. Im able to join it from my main pc while hosting from a laptop, but my friends cant seem to join while using the 7777 port and the ip from my laptop. Am i doing somethign wrong?

this is what they have when they put in my ip

[velvet badge]

I recently switched my server to a dedicated one running on that docker container.
After I followed the wiki config stuff and after the server restarted tonight now whenever anyone logs in the person spawns as a new character in the hub with the old character still alive as a logged off user back where he was. What is going on?

[dusty hazel]

Are u giving them ur local ip or public ip ?

[proud mirage]

figured it out

forgot to change the port after i changed what i was running the server on

bit dumb of me lol

[dusty hazel]

Yeah if the server was running good was euther the ip or the port ^^

[dusty hazel]

It happened once for everyone or they always come back as a fresh character from the reboot ?

[velvet badge]

Seems like it happened once for everyone.

but the dedicated server has been having odd problems outside of this as well

like making a blueprint and requiring users to leave and rejoin to see the bp in the list

[radiant magnet]

Hello i wanna play in 1.0 not higger update how i can downgrade the version of server ? i cant find how in internet T-T

[surreal smelt]

use depotdownloader

[radiant magnet]

thank ^^ i will look tuto about it

[proud mirage]

2 friends having an issue where their screens aren't loading when joining the server, they can hear sound and hear themselves moving but the screen is still loading. My pc is fine but theirs arent

[radiant magnet]

about my dedicated serveur not my game it is aldready 1.0

[surreal smelt]

when i didn't own the game i got the right version of dedicated server for my game version and used it
ill see if i can find the command i used

you can use depotdownloader for dedicated server

[radiant magnet]

ok i will search a bit more if u have commance yeah please i need it

[hidden forge]

#patch-notes message

[proud mirage]

does this mean i just have to open 8888 as well?

[surreal smelt]

dm'd you

also why 1.0 ?

[proud mirage]

and also that they use 8888 to join?

[hidden forge]

You need three ports. The base port (7777) in UDP & TCP, and the secondary port (8888) TCP

Hello everyone, I updated my game and server via steamcmd +force_install_dir ~/SatisfactoryDedicatedServer +login placeholder +app_update 1690800 -beta public validate +quit

But I still get this message telling me that the server is at version 418783 and my game is at 424353.

What should I do?

have the same issue updated the server reinstalled it still the same :(

[uneven loom]

I just restarted the server and apparently it works.

are u sure you do the steamcmd update in the right folder ?

[feral shuttle]

should be ya

i will reinstall the vm and try

mabey i did smt worng

[lime pecan]

Me and my friend are trying to play mp together on 1.1. He set up a dedicated server for us with port forwarded 7777 on tcp and udp and 8888 on tcp but i still load infinitely

Can your friend connect to it with the remote address?

[strange musk]

Is he self hosting it? Or rented a server?

[lime pecan]

he is self hosting

[lime pecan]

yes

[tepid coral]

Looking for a server service that is really high powered and able to handle a endgame map with TONS of builds, assets, players, etc. with minimal lag, crashes, etc. Obviously restarts are necessary but I need something that is more CPU power more RAM. it seems some options out there say "increase player count" but that doesn't tell me if they increase the server capability beyond just player count. I need a heavy duty server. Any recommendations from anyone here who has had really beefy and high powered servers for their endgame maps?

[strange musk]

Make sure his firewall allows inbound traffic for those ports

Is he hosting windows? Linux? Using docker? Steamcmd?

[lime pecan]

firewall allows inbound traffic for those ports and redirects it to Linux host that has the server running on docker

[granite sorrel]

I have a dedicated server set up for 5 players. I have one player that often logs in and their camera is stuck in one direction with no hud until they respawn (inconvenient if far from hub). Sometimes this player also doesn't see things being built until they exit to main menu and come back in. Any suggestions?

[compact kettle]

Sorry if this isn't that helpful but whether if it's about increase player amount or whatever, the goal is the same as far as any 'game hosting dedicated server' :

• Need highest single core clock speed
• most amount of cores
• with most amount of high efficient ram of latest architecture and etc..(6000+MT/s DDR5+)
• and 1gig fiber or higher internet etc ($80/month or less from atnt 🤣 )

[kind flint]

Any pinned guide here for steam version?

[dusty hazel]

no vpn on ur friend side ?

check if the 8888 port is well opened too

[hidden forge]

stuck in loading screen is 99,99% something wrong with the secondary port setup (default 8888)
is everything set to the same port number or is there some kind of remapping done anywhere?

[rose barn]

How do i update my dedicated server?

[hidden forge]

self host? the same way you installed it
bought hosting? depends on the hosting service

Self hosting the server on Pterodactyl, port 7777 TCP/UDP and 8888 TCP are open and I can connect through my local ip. When I try to use my public ip it gets the server's name but says "Not Authenticated" when I click on the server to join it says "You need to be authenticated to see this information" and it repeatedly stacks the "Connection to the server has been lost" box over and over. How can I fix this issue?

Send the docker compose file

And i couldn't get just the docker to work i had to use docker compose

I 1000% may be wrong bc im pretty new to homelabbing but pretty sure if you try to join with your public ip from the same network it doesn't work

If it works with your private IP and the ports are forwarded someone should be able to join with ur public ip if they are ourside your network tho

My god you're right.... I've been trying to figure this out for like 20 minutes

[mild thunder]

just depends on the nat reflection if it will work or not from the inside to use the public IP

some systems allow it, some don't, and the defaults that they use differ

has anyone found a fix for the sync errors or blueprint "ghosts" and cpu usage? or is that sonething that the devs have to fix
