hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:46 PM

#

i running a satisfactory server via amp
you are the host

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:46 PM

#

no

#

i trying to join somone that has the sever running

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:46 PM

#

then add their server

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

i added it

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

then join

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

the join button is grayed out

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

if it's not posssible the host hasn't finished the setup

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:47 PM

#

it setup as far as i know i looking at it

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:48 PM

#

if you cant join its not

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:54 PM

#

have you use amp befor i curious if the serversettings.779.save is the world or the server setttings themself or the combation of both

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:55 PM

#

no and no
serversettings is not the save, its as the name says server settings

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:56 PM

#

ok so that wat i need to be able to edit

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:56 PM

#

to achieve what?

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:57 PM

#

i wondering if i dont have the right password or something i dont kinow becuse the sever is up and running i looking at the amp and the server it is running

#

i have forward all ports both tcp and udp outbound and inbound

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:57 PM

#

who is hosting the server? you or somebody else?

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:57 PM

#

being 1500 15777 and 777

#

i am on another pc

#

within the same network

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:58 PM

#

so you host it

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:58 PM

#

yes

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:58 PM

#

strange saffron being 1500 15777 and 777

old ports btw, only 7777 tcp & udp and 8888/tcp required

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:58 PM

#

oh ok

#

i dot hae 8888 forward so maybe

#

that it

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:59 PM

#

and you don't need forwarding inside your network

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 4:59 PM

#

ok

#

fair

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 4:59 PM

#

then add the server via the IP of the other system in the server manager

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:00 PM

#

ok done

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:00 PM

#

did you ever set the admin password?

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:00 PM

#

it never asked me when i set it up though amp

#

is that a question i rpoblem need to ask amp discord

#

proable

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:01 PM

#

then shut down the server, delete the serversettings.7777.save file, and restart it

#

then it should ask for the admin password in the server manager

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:02 PM

#

when i do it though the manger itself

#

though satisfacotry

#

awsome both on same page 😄

#

so i did the password and such now it stilll says you need to creat or load a game befor you can join and the join game button is still grayed out

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:05 PM

#

then create or load a save

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:05 PM

#

if the save it not on this pc and somoen trying to join do i have to send them the save to allow them to join me

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:06 PM

#

you can upload saves

#

oh, if its not on your pc? then either have them send it, or give them the admin password so they can upload it

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:07 PM

#

sorry i said that wrong my bad

#

if another person tries to join this do they have to have the save to join it

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:07 PM

#

no

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:07 PM

#

ok

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:07 PM

#

the save is loaded on the server, everybody can join it

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:10 PM

#

question if i not on the server the sever should still run right

#

or will it pause

#

cool

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

ah, that depends on how you set it

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

ahh ok

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

if you enable auto-ause it'll pause if nobody is connected, if not not

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:11 PM

#

cool i good with this

#

lol

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

just the host server/system needs to run

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:12 PM

#

fair

#

ok i got it uploaded the settings setup

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:15 PM

#

then load the save and you should be able to join

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:16 PM

#

the box is still grayed out

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:17 PM

#

can you send a screenshot?

woven gale Oct 25, 2025, 5:18 PM

#

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:20 PM

#

when i try to choose the world say save it says failed to connect to server api

#

but under mange saves it does have my updloaded world

#

and no previous sessions

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:21 PM

#

did you load the save in the manage saves tab?

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:21 PM

#

that might been it

#

and i think i ust crashed the sever lol

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:22 PM

#

nah, it takes a while
while it loads the save it stops responding to the network

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:22 PM

#

ahh ok

#

got it ty so much

#

i know it was a bit of a hassle but ty for sticking with it

#

and helping me it was a huge help ❤️

hidden forge Oct 25, 2025, 5:26 PM

#

if you want others from outside your network to join then you need to set up port forwarding @strange saffron

#

if it's just you, keep the ports closed

strange saffron Oct 25, 2025, 5:29 PM

#

ok ty yea just setting up the port fowarding and the firewall ports now

#

ty 🙂

As long as it's reasonably fast, no reason why you can't run the dedicated server on that mini pc yep

Dont launch the server from the steam UI. Build a shortcut to it on the desktop/start menu

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 7:59 AM

#

You can also always just open up the game without running a dedicated server, as long as you're playing the game you can invite friends

#

It will put additional load on your PC but then running a dedicated server in parallel will do so also

#

What's the spec of the mini pc?

dusk cedar Oct 26, 2025, 9:26 AM

#

In The Server manager section it says server tickrate 30. What does it mean and is it good or bad?

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 9:26 AM

#

30 is standard and fine

dusk cedar Oct 26, 2025, 9:28 AM

oh hey Zatie! I in VMware workstation for the Ptero VM in increased CPU from 2 to 8 and it is a lot better now. No lag at all with 3 players.

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 9:35 AM

#

Hey - ah right, throwing more cores has helped then xD

#

I've played with higher server tick rates, 45, 60 etc but I didn't really notice any significant difference and it just puts more load on the client and server, so I've stuck with 30 tbh

wise lodge Oct 26, 2025, 10:31 AM

Good day,

Hope someone can assist me.
I'm having issues with my dedicated server.
Running in proxmox with windows server 2025 with firewall disabled.
I can play via local lan with not problem.
but when my friend tries to play from he's house it gives him "connection to host lost"
I have tried via LTE connection aswell to see if it is just him but same issue.
We can play via other games all fine.

I Have open my port on my Mikrotik for TCP/UDP 7777 and TCP 8888.
I have even tried changing the port but no success.
I have even change the timeout setting.

Still no success.

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 10:32 AM

#

So the server is currently running on 7777/udp/tcp and 8888/tcp again?

wise lodge Oct 26, 2025, 10:32 AM

#

currently not but i can change it

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 10:33 AM

#

Might be worth going back to standard ports to simplify things, double check the port mappings match up again

#

How is your friend connecting? v4/v6 ?

wise lodge Oct 26, 2025, 10:34 AM

#

ipv4

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 10:34 AM

#

Are you behind anything like CGNAT on the v4?

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 10:58 AM

#

It's ReliableMessaging, like Xeet said - there's something wrong with your 8888/tcp I think too

#

Can your friend telnet to it?

#

Command Prompt ->

#

telnet <your_ip> 8888

#

Does it sit there "Connecting...."

#

or does it connect and drop back to the terminal prompt

wise lodge Oct 26, 2025, 11:11 AM

nmap online port scan shows 8888 filtered

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 11:12 AM

#

Either the port mapping is incorrect, your ISP is blocking those 8xxx ports possibly as some can be used for things like web services, or the firewall on Proxmox or the WS2025 is filtering it

#

So it sounds like it's firewalled somewhere

#

Run it with:
-Port=7777 -ReliablePort=7788 -ExternalReliablePort=7788

#

Update your port mappings change 8888 to 7788

wise lodge Oct 26, 2025, 11:19 AM

#

lol sorry my bad it works by changing the port to 7788. I forgot the isp blocked that port due to hackers compromising cambium radio

im trying to setup a dedicated server and im new to this i followed a guide on youtube but i didnt understand his update comment about port forwarding. im running it on ubuntu using steamcmd

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 6:11 PM

#

3 ports need to be forwarded if you want external accesss (friends, etc)
7777/tcp 7777/udp 8888/tcp

#

Most routers have that option somwhere, usually in NAT settings, or a dedicated port forwarding page

#

and you need to take the IP address of the Ubuntu box and then in the port forwarding set the destination IP to that

hidden forge Oct 26, 2025, 6:38 PM

Tldr: Port forwarding is something you need to configure on your router if you want others from outside your home-network be able to join your server (via IPv4)

drifting hatch Oct 26, 2025, 6:44 PM

On the Ubuntu server you might need to open those ports on the firewall as well - ufw / iptables

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 4:11 AM

#

You might need to specify -ExternalReliablePort=5002 as well, seeing as you are running on non-standard ports

#

./Engine/Binaries/Linux/FactoryServer-Linux-Shipping FactoryGame -Port=5001 -ReliablePort=5002 -ExternalReliablePort=5002 -unattended

#

Then 2 things to verify: 1st: firewall on the server needs to allow 5001/udp 5001/tcp and 5002/tcp. 2nd: port mappings on your router need to forward these 3 to the internal IP address of your dedicated server

#

5001 ---> <server_ip> Port 5001 Protocol TCP
5002 ---> <server_ip> Port 5002 Protocol TCP```

#

Finally, when your friends connect they need to add your server like:
<your_public_ip>:5001

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 10:51 AM

#

Reloaded mine, appears it did something, not sure if it's an update, possibly

#

It has been [5.3.2-433351+++FactoryGame+rel-main-1.1.0 1009 3] for quite a while

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

well mine definitely pulled a new docker image

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 10:56 AM

#

Might just be the image rather than the server itself

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 10:57 AM

#

lol and the point of that?

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 10:57 AM

#

Linux updates, security updates, it's not just the satisfactory server, it's running a distro as well

#

Shrug xD All I can say is I reloaded mine and it's verified the same steam version pre-load, I checked the logs... Might be wrong but I can't see a version change

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:01 AM

#

this is the docker i'm using ghcr.io/parkervcp/steamcmd:debian

#

this is not a big deal. thought there was an update to the server release and wanted to know the changes

#

php was updated also so may have to do with that

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:03 AM

#

Do you have a github for that?

#

It's probably something like that if the image has been updated

#

Certainly my container doesn't need to be updated to update the satisfactory server itself, just a reload and it checks steam pre-load for the latest version of the server

#

I probably should update my image tho, 4 months old now XD

#

There is a much newer one

#

done xD

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:22 AM

#

I don't have the github for this.

#

what is the game server console log location?

#

I can't scroll back enough in ptero panel to see what the update actually did

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:23 AM

#

like docker logs name|container_id

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:24 AM

#

okay, but what is the file location?

#

inside the docker

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:24 AM

#

I'm not familiar with your image, not sure within

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

forget about the docker image. I am talking about out of the box game server console log location

#

if it was without the docker

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:25 AM

#

Which OS

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

Alma Linux

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

Client? Like Windows

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

server on linux, what is the console log location on the file system which folder and file does it log to?

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 11:26 AM

#

Normally like FactoryGame/Saved/Logs

#

(within wherever the server is run from)

dusk cedar Oct 27, 2025, 11:32 AM

#

got it

#

thanks

Hello guys, I have a problem. I can run and join my dedicated server (running on linux) with my internal ip. But when i use my public ip with the 3 ports opened on my box, i can't connect to my server. I got an "Could not connect tot he server. Failed to Connect to the erver API".
I can claim it, connect it with my private ip. But can do nothing with my public.
Someone can help me ?

drifting hatch Oct 27, 2025, 6:40 PM

#

In both cases - 3 ports need to be mapped on your router(s) - 7777/udp 7777/tcp 8888/tcp (assuming you are running the satisfactory server on standard ports)

Hey everyone,

I’m playing Satisfactory with my friends on a dedicated server. We’ve noticed some lag issues happening specifically near our factory. We’re currently in the mid-game, working with aluminum. The lag causes short stutters that sometimes reset our position, and conveyor belts don’t display correctly.

The problem becomes more noticeable when at least two of us are on the server at the same time. I’ve also noticed that Hypertube junctions stop working entirely once there are two players online.

Is this a known issue, and are there any workarounds for it? Or should we just hope that server performance gets improved in future updates?

Thanks a lot!

guys, way back then I paid some host for satisfactory server, however I do noticed that the hypertube travel is kinda buggy after 5-10 minutes of the server starting.. I found out it was due to the caching and stuff, but there was a workaround which is adding

wp.Runtime.EnableServerStreaming=0```
To Engine.ini
but configuring this setting during that time crashout the server host due to lack of RAM

anyone know what is the recommended RAM for satisfactory server host now?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 5:46 PM

Mine uses about 5-6GB for just me alone

#

The official wiki:
Memory 8GB. 16GB RAM may be recommended for larger saves or to host more than 4 players.

@drifting hatch OKay, so i can now join via geforce now, so outside connections are working but my friend keeps joining and immidately loosing connection to host. Any idea why?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:14 PM

#

How are your port mappings? They need to match up with the server

#

Can you verify that you are running the server with:
-Port=7777 -ReliablePort=8888 -ExternalReliablePort=8888

#

Port mappings on the router need to have those 3 pointing to the internal server IP: 7777/UDP 7777/TCP and 8888/TCP

Might be a problem with 8888/TCP if he's getting disconnected straight away

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:32 PM

#

I thiunk i can confirm that, so does 15000 get used at all now?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:32 PM

#

Not anymore

#

Not unless it's specified in the command e.g. -ExternalReliablePort=15000

#

Mainly the reason I wanted to confirm the full command you are using to run the server

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:35 PM

#

ok i just launch the server for the exe in the server folder, is that the wrong way to launch it?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:35 PM

#

That's fine, so it should be running on defaults as above

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:35 PM

#

its been YEARS since i have done all this

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:35 PM

#

My brain forgets how to play games after like 2 months xD

#

So you just need to ensure your port mappings are set for 7777/UDP 7777/TCP and 8888/TCP

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:36 PM

#

yeah port mapping is port forwarding, right?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:36 PM

#

Yep

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

ok i have those correctly then

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

What is the dedicated server running on, Linux / WIndows ?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

wibdows

#

windows

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

Windows I guess you mentioned .exe

#

Are you able to connect to it locally?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:38 PM

#

yes

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:38 PM

#

Firewall sounds fine then

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:38 PM

#

and via geforce now which is an outside connection

#

which is what has me baffled the most

#

yeah firewall is off compeltely

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:38 PM

#

And friend still can't connect?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:39 PM

#

he connects but then immidately gets kicked out, well about 30 seconds later

#

and it tells him connection to server lost

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:39 PM

#

if you can join via geforce now it's a problem on your friends side

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:39 PM

#

Still sounds like 8888 Reliable Messaging might be the prob

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:39 PM

#

whats the fix?

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:40 PM

#

are they on windows?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:40 PM

#

yes

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:41 PM

#

then try the following in powershell:
Test-Netconnection -Port 8888 <Your-Servers-IP>

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:45 PM

#

We think it might actually be his windwos firewall

#

lemme try that command

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:46 PM

#

that would be weird, outgoing connections are normally not restricted

#

might want to remove the ip and name 😅

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:48 PM

#

yeah, anyway, did the results look good?

#

They did to me

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:49 PM

#

but connection is going through

#

is he stuck in the loading screen from his perspective?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 7:50 PM

#

yes

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 7:51 PM

#

you just double click the server exe to run? no arguments passed?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 7:52 PM

#

DM me your IP if you like and I can try connecting?

#

Looks like I'm stuck on the loading screen also

#

Can confirm both 7777/tcp and 8888/tcp are open

#

Assuming 7777/udp is also correctly forwarded, can't see any issues there

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:00 PM

#

Yes i can

#

Like they are

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:01 PM

#

I wonder if it's like the situation the other day with the ISP blocking 8888, although it wouldn't explain why it's open tho

#

Could you try running the server exe with
-ExternalReliablePort=7788 on the end ?

#

and add a port forward for 7788/tcp

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 8:04 PM

#

did you turn off the firewall on the host or create rules? if rules, please post them

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:05 PM

#

Firewall is off I believe

#

from earlier chat

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 8:09 PM

something very wrong then with either the router or the ISP

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

Bit of a mystery yea

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

i made the rule for 7788 but port remains closted

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

Showing as closed yea

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

did you adjust the server to the new port?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:15 PM

#

yes i ran the command you said

hidden forge Oct 28, 2025, 8:16 PM

#

what port mapping is currently set?
external -> internal

7788 -> 8888
7788 -> 7788
?

#

if you use ExternalReliablePort you need 1,

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:18 PM

#

8888 -> 8888 TCP
7777 -> 7777 TCP
7777 -> 7777 UDP
8888 -> 8888 UDP
7788 -> 7788 TCP

#

oh ok hang on

#

ok now 7788 is open

#

and orwards to 8888

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:21 PM

#

Showing open yep, I'll see if I can connect

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:21 PM

#

whats the difference between 7788 and 8888?

drifting hatch Oct 28, 2025, 8:21 PM

#

Just a test to see if your ISP is doing any funny business with 8888

#

Yep I'm in now

Can he/she do a Test-Netconnection for 7788 ?

warped sphinx Oct 28, 2025, 8:27 PM

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:02 AM

Sure - Windows or Linux?

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

drifting hatch Sure - Windows or Linux?

Windows atm

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:03 AM

#

So if you open a Command Prompt and type in
````ipconfig```
Under your Ethernet adapter section there should be some IPv6 Address lines

#

The one you're interested in is a line with "IPv6 Address......" (not the Temporary IPv6 Address line), with the address that does not start with fe80

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

I probably should've mentioned ive done that bit

#

I have the address i believe I did the port forwarding on my router and Windows but it just did not want to work for me

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:05 AM

#

IPv6 doesn't have NAT/forwarding. What you need to do on the router is go to the firewall section and open up those 3 ports to the destination IP address of the server

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:05 AM

#

Oh?

#

Okay I'll do that then

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:06 AM

#

Every IP address in v6 is a public address, so there is no forwarding needed, all you have to do is open up the rules on the firewall

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:06 AM

#

Oh I was being silly then I thought i always had to do it

#

When i can I need to close those ports then thank you

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:07 AM

#

Not silly, it's a natural thing to think to do, especially after all these years of IPv4

#

Yes you can close the firewall rules as required

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:08 AM

#

Well thank you for informing me on that what would be the next step because all Ive done is download the server tool and grab the ipv6 address

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:08 AM

#

So an example firewall rule would be something like:
Policy: Allow
Source Port: 7777
Protocol: UDP
Destination Host: <ip6_address_of_server>
Destination Port: 7777

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:09 AM

#

Im gonna just turn my pc on now and do all this

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

If in doubt, paste a screenshot of the firewall rules (you can hide the IP address for sure)

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

Can I just message you directly?

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

Sure

frail pendant Oct 29, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

Okay one moment

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

Just going to make a coffee in the meanwhile 😉

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 7:28 AM

#

@frail pendant ipv6 setup is almost the same as v4
BUT! Small caveat, the client does not parse raw v6 addresses correctly so you need to hide them behind DNS

#

On windows use this tool https:// ipv6-literal.com/ and use the responding *.ipv6-literal.net address

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 7:36 AM

#

Even if you surround with [] ?

#

I use DNS but never thought to try the IP itself

#

It works fine for me Xeet with the raw v6 IP address

#

OR DOES IT xD

#

You just have to surround it with square brackets and then it's fine

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 7:48 AM

#

Nope, square brackets will work in the server manager but fail on connection

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 7:48 AM

#

Admittedly I didn't go beyond the password and certificate XD

#

Yes, I fail, it fails, everything fails XD

#

Guess you could always just slap it into the hosts file

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 7:52 AM

#

drifting hatch Guess you could always just slap it into the hosts file

Would work too, but on windows that's more complicated than using literal address

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 7:53 AM

#

Yea true that

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 8:23 AM

#

frail pendant When i can I need to close those ports then thank you

You still need the ports open in the routers firewall to be reachable from the outside. Which depending on your router might be the same setup as v4 forwarding

dry granite Oct 29, 2025, 12:26 PM

Hello everyone,
I have a dedicated server on which I have the “Windows GSM” software, and Satisfactory runs on it.

Since I forgot the admin password, I could play on the server but couldn't change any settings, and all attempts to reset the password were unsuccessful.

I then deleted this server instance and recreated it, but the server could be accessed and played on just as before.

After that, I also deleted all data on my local computer (including the registry) and recreated the server a second time.

I reinstalled everything from scratch, and the server was accessible again and playable at exactly the same game status as before.

Does anyone have any tips on how I can completely delete the server and reinstall it so that everything is really gone?

Thanks in advance 🙂

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 12:54 PM

#

It might not have removed the server settings file when uninstalling (and the saves, etc). Probably need to remove that and then reclaim the server. I'd backup your saves first though, if not already done

#

What's in your dedicated server directory?

I did the whole thing twice and checked the second time to see if the entire instance with save states had been deleted from the server, which I can definitely confirm.

I've never had anything like this happen before, and I've created and administered quite a few servers.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 1:53 PM

#

Hmm, can you check the link Xeet sent just to be certain?

dry granite Oct 29, 2025, 1:54 PM

#

I'm doing it right now

#

Hmm... the URL gives me an idea. I deleted everything related to the game from my computer, and I also deleted “Userappdata etc.” and the game itself from the directory.

I deleted the entire instance from the server, but what I didn't check is whether files for the server were still stored somewhere else on the Windows server.

That's the only thing that could still be there. It's not usual because Windows GSM doesn't work that way and creates everything in a separate folder or instance, but maybe it's different with this game.

I'll check that when I get home.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 2:00 PM

#

If it's the only instance on the server you could search the system drive for ServerSettings.PORT.sav

#

Okie dokie

#

Not familiar with Windows GSM maybe Xeet is, but that sounds possible

dry granite Oct 29, 2025, 2:02 PM

#

Yes, but I've already searched the entire server for this file and it doesn't exist for some reason.

#

I believe this file was also recommended for resetting the password.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 2:03 PM

#

Managed files claim to be in these locations as well:

C:\ProgramData\WindowsGSM\servers\Satisfactory\```

dry granite Oct 29, 2025, 2:05 PM

#

I really searched through every single folder and couldn't find this file.

#

That's why I can only imagine that something else is written down somewhere else.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 2:05 PM

#

Yea.. strange, if I was familiar with Windows GSM I might know more

#

Clearly there is a configuration file somewhere, just a case of figuring out what and where

#

When the server is running, are you able to inspect the launch arguments - you can mouse over the process using Microsoft Sysinternals Process Explorer - I wonder if it's being pointed to a specific named file there

dry granite Oct 29, 2025, 2:07 PM

#

Normally, the software does not work this way and puts everything that belongs to the instance into one folder, which is why I did not consider searching for it in Windows itself.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 2:07 PM

Yea that's the info I'm getting from searching

Hi everyone,

I ran into a very strange problem with my dedicated Satisfactory servers on Ubuntu, installed via SteamCMD. I had two servers: one I’ve been playing on for a long time and a new one I just set up. Both servers had different ports and were reachable, but neither could be joined — neither locally nor over the Internet.

When trying to join, I could hear the world’s background sounds for a few seconds, and then the game would crash. I initially thought it might be a port issue, so I shut down the new server and tried connecting to the older one, but the same problem occurred.

I ended up deleting the second server (the new VM) completely, and now the first server works again. Simply turning off the second server did not fix the issue — it only worked after fully removing it.

Both servers were installed via SteamCMD and had their own ports. I suspect it might have been related to conflicting server configurations or cached data, but I haven’t been able to pinpoint the exact cause.

Has anyone experienced this before or have any ideas on what could be causing it?

Thanks in advance!

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 6:36 PM

#

How are you running each server (command arguments) ?

#

For example
Server 1
-Port=7777 -ReliablePort=8888 -ExternalReliablePort=8888
Server 2
-Port=7778 -ReliablePort=8889 -ExternalReliablePort=8889
So they are not overlapping on the game or reliable messaging ports

austere fox Oct 29, 2025, 6:45 PM

#

For vm one i used 7777 = gameport 15000 query port 15777 beacon port, for vm two i used 8888 = gameport ,16000 query port, and 16777 for the beacon port.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 6:46 PM

#

I think that's pre-1.1 style ports

#

New args are as above

#

-Port=8888 -ReliablePort=16000 -ExternalReliablePort=16000```

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 6:47 PM

#

technically it should default to next free port if 8888 is already in use
best to set it manually though

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 6:48 PM

#

Port mappings would be:
7777/UDP+TCP 15000/TCP
8888/UDP+TCP 16000/TCP

austere fox Oct 29, 2025, 6:49 PM

Connect to server 1 on 7777 and server 2 on 7778

hidden forge Oct 29, 2025, 7:14 PM

if lan connection does not work a firewall is blocking 8888/tcp

Ok thank you all, I will try it tomorrow.

drifting hatch Oct 29, 2025, 7:18 PM

The firewall would need to allow 7777/udp+tcp and 8888/tcp (server1) and 7778/udp+tcp and 8889/tcp (server 2)

Sounds like an issue with the Reliable Messaging port, which by default should be 8888/tcp, that needs to be open as well

Are you able to see which ports it's running on the Pterodactyl Panel, or by looking at the process list for the command arguments

It's very easy if you have the latest egg, make sure you gave it 2 port allocations, then put the non primary allocation port in the reliableport blank that defaults to 8888. Then in the game you connect to the primary allocation port.

hidden forge iirc cloudflare tunnel does not work

you can set up CF Tunnel, for non-https traffic. it does support tpc. if you can force the game to only connect over TCP

look up their "Arbitrary TCP" in their cloudflare-one docs.

otherwise you can setup a WARP connector but then anyone who wants to connect would also need to set this up to connect to you, as via WARP this is more or less connecting multiple off-site networks together, like linking multiple local subnets into 1 mesh.

its very similar to how like you want to connect to a your workplace from home via a private VPN tunnel to access its networked resources.

otherwise you can probs get away with cloudflare Spectrum L4 reverse proxy setup but not free sadly 🙁

but with this you can pair it with their loadbalancer which would significantly reduce latency as traffic would go through their backbone.
but not free/cheap either.

Hi, I'm trying to make a dedicated server, as to bypass the 4 player limit we have when hosting the game directly. I've already set up the server multiple times with older versions, but this problem hasn't come up yet, nor have I found any solution online.

Server starts all fine, I can interact with the Server-Manager interface but when I try to connect, it works for like 10-ish seconds and then stops, sends me to the main screen and pops the error

"Your connection to the host has been lost"
"Connection to Host has ben Lost"

in the server log I found some things that could be relevant:

"Handshake with player 'BP_PlayerController_C_2147467921' timed out. Removing component."

"UNetConnection::Close: [UNetConnection] RemoteAddr: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:57666, Name: IpConnection_2147467930, Driver: GameNetDriver FGDSIpNetDriver_2147482198, IsServer: YES, PC: BP_PlayerController_C_2147467921, Owner: BP_PlayerController_C_2147467921, UniqueId: Steam:1 (ForeignId=[Type=6 Handle=0 RepData=[7E14590601001001]), Channels: 1081, Time: 2025.11.07-09.58.40"

that looks like the install script and not the egg, and that is not the latest version

#

i would recommend going to the egg repository and grabbing the latest egg, making sure you add both allocations, then putting the non primary allocation in the Reliable port variable

is the server local to you or remote?

#

remote i dont own the server i only have admin on the panel

#

do i need to have the owner change something?>

mild thunder Nov 9, 2025, 6:56 PM

#

i asked because of some people try to connect via their public IP before trying to use the local IP and just trying to verify if it would be router or pterodactyl host issue

#

since it is remote, were the allocations pre assigned, or did you choose them?

twin badge Nov 9, 2025, 6:58 PM

#

i chose them

#

all the other ports are used for other servers

#

ive read in a lot of places that you need 3 ports? two of the 7777 and one 8888

mild thunder Nov 9, 2025, 7:02 PM

#

it will put both tcp and udp for both ports if you added both allocations

#

i would suggest stopping the server, deleting the server settings file at: /home/container/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames then start the server back up, and try loading into a brand new save, if that fails, post the console here as txt so we can take a look at it.

hidden forge Nov 9, 2025, 7:23 PM

#

and you set 7783 as the port when adding the server in the server manager?

mild thunder Nov 9, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

I am seeing the Reliable messaging port timed out there, so may need to try another port, or reach out to server admin to make sure that it is allowed through.

#

but both ports look to be taken as launch arguments properly

#

this is the line that caught my attention: LogReliableMessaging: Warning: Handshake with player 'BP_PlayerController_C_2147473695' timed out. Removing component.

might be an issue with you router not correctly handling packets from an internal source. can somebody outside your network try to connect?

twin badge i can try reallocating ports to use only 7777 and 8888 exactly

as long as both ports are applied in the startup argument properly it doesn't matter what the 2 ports are. they just need to be passed through the firewall if needed, and properly allocated to the server.

hi! i'm having a problem getting someone to access my server outside my local network. yes 7777 and 8888 are port forwarded, yes ive disabled IPV6 and binded to the local IP, yes i have ALSO attempted to try a different port (25565) bc i host minecraft from the same server

#

it won't show up and they're using the right IP to try and look idk what the issue is

#

i've port forwarded inside windows firewall and my router as well

Also how are you running the server? Native or some kind of container?

somehow my inf is gone and on my original acc with the inv is sitting in the world with the name "missing sting entity table"

#

how could i add the string again? I mean i can just fish the id out of the console and attach it to the right person? If that is a soulution how to do it?

#

I think I found the issue: the server updated and can't find the table at all, I'm just guessing though, but I found this in the console:

If you had keep inventory on, then I think you have to use scim to take note of the items and place them in a crate before removing the player, if it was off, pick a weapon and start bashing till you get your stuff.

hey, was the server updated recently? Saw an update in my console after rebooting the server

fleet wyvern Nov 10, 2025, 8:24 PM

#

Could we see in the future that we can increase the player count of the server via the ingame server manager?

dusk cedar Nov 10, 2025, 8:47 PM
