[spiral root]

You launching from Steam you need to edit the launch commands.

[minor narwhal]

i found out why it looked like the save had been deleted. On the server settings tab, the session name kept auto-deleting part of the name for some reason, had to quickly type it in and confirm for it to load up the right saves.

[pliant panther]

After that message I get the error: [2021.11.04-09.57.43:964][ 0]LogGenericPlatformMisc: Error: SetEnvironmentVar not implemented for this platform: SteamAppId = 526870

And then it crashes

[solar remnant]

The crash is fixed by using the -multihome argument which is currently required.

Keep in mind that it means bind to all IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.

-multihome=::

[spiral root]

Glad you worked it out does remind me that I need to setup my gdrive rclone backup for save files just incase.

[pliant panther]

Ah thank you

Fixed the issue

[brisk parrot]

thank you everyone the multihome arguement as steam launch perramiter worked like a charm ty

[devout dune]

arguement and perramiter

r/boneappletea

[median anvil]

i runn server tru streamCMD and in the Save/Config foler is not the WindowsServer folder eny one els has that problem.. i just instalt tru steam and it has it

[spiral root]

Config folder is a hidden folder and is in %AppData% on windows ~/.config/ on Linux

[slim spoke]

use the line from faq for save files and just fix folders .. it opens a window in the target

[paper estuary]

cant place wall at wall

seems bug

[hollow pine]

How i do i use the program ?

[paper estuary]

only at foundation

[boreal inlet]

Question: Does anyone know when the update will be rolled out at Nitrado? The Experimental is already at 171,407 and Nitrado is still at 170,636.

[weary shuttle]

Satisfactory Dedicated Server not listed on Steam. yes tools are listed

[hollow pine]

Don't use nitrado ?

[boreal inlet]

Why

[hollow pine]

Cuz when i used it back in my day, it was realy shitty x)

Just my thoughts x)

[boreal inlet]

We play with 4 people and it all works. Except for the Amier pistol, the server crashes

[devout dune]

what is nitrado?

[lofty latch]

A game hosting company

[devout dune]

f.

anything propietary is just uncharted territory

[lofty latch]

Because everyone reviews the source of every FOSS program they run amirite? 😂

[devout dune]

I encourage people hosting it themselves

[devout dune]

yeah no but its out of your control

unlike FOSS

or your own hosting

to me update the server was a matter of 20 seconds yesterday cause I own it

@boreal inlet is probably paying for a service and doesnt know when server is gonna get updated

[lofty latch]

Just pointing out that the game server itself is proprietary, as is the program you use to update it xD

That's just a sucky service if they don't let you trigger updates yourself. Most hosts do.

[devout dune]

well... I meant the service he's paying

[lofty latch]

Broadly yes though I encourage people to get a dedi and VPS and do it themselves.

[devout dune]

probably the safest option really

[hollow pine]

yup

[devout dune]

just looked into it, I thought those were way more expensive

🤔

well I mean,

[lofty latch]

Either do it bare or install a management system and run it all on something you can control and repurpose.

[devout dune]

it IS expensive when you account the cores

[hollow pine]

Buy a raspberry then

[lofty latch]

No, that wouldn't work

[hollow pine]

ah ?

[lofty latch]

Wrong architecture

[hollow pine]

ok

[lofty latch]

Aarch64 vs x86/64

[devout dune]

good luck running the server on a pi, I already asked for it here

when they announced dedicated servers

[hollow pine]

I'm running it on win server ^^

[lofty latch]

It is technically possible but the performance would not be acceptable.

[hollow pine]

But i still have a problem with my save not running on the server

[wraith pebble]

Is there even an arm build available?

[lofty latch]

No there is not

[devout dune]

nope, try and emulate it

[hollow pine]

I even edited to match the save the server was overwritting but didn't work

[wraith pebble]

Make sure to use the correct session id

[lofty latch]

You can use User-space emulation with a dynamic recompiler but you lose a huge amount of performance.

[devout dune]

not trying to be rude but why do people use windows server at all? does it actually provide something linux doesn't?

[wraith pebble]

Just create game with same session id as your save 🙂

[sacred peak]

you open the save file and search for your old savename

[lofty latch]

@devout dune some game severs don't run on Linux if they run other games

[wraith pebble]

I don’t get it either 😦

[hollow pine]

I just got it for free cuz my dad is running things on it, i don't know x)

[lofty latch]

Some just don't want to learn a new OS, or have to manage virtual machines

[devout dune]

linux is the shit once you get used to it

its way superior imho

[devout dune]

but I can get behind this

[hollow pine]

i got this (my save i try to add)

[wraith pebble]

Yeah, never going back, also playing the game on my linux desktop 🙂

[lofty latch]

Windows is better for development. Building a Linux app that runs on any distro is a nightmare.

[wraith pebble]

It is easier to develop on linux 🙂

[devout dune]

just make sure to cover the most mainstream ones

[lofty latch]

The main app I make has a huge 70MB executable for Linux to let it run anywhere.

[hollow pine]

I would like to test it on linux tho, like the way things are made there

[lofty latch]

And has separate arm64 and x86/64 versions

[wraith pebble]

Not really, there is containers images like flatpak for that, also technically different distroa are different oses

[wraith pebble]

Then you are statically linking libraries?

[lofty latch]

Yup, lots of them - pretty much everything except glibc, zlib and a few basics.

But the binary will run on any glibc based distro

[sacred peak]

at the top ther are 2 enjtiries usw. my name from this menu is m,y world name

[lofty latch]

As far back as Debian 8/CentOS 7

[hollow pine]

You mean "Update 5" ?

[sacred peak]

yes, thats my world name but your is blank

[hollow pine]

Yup

I didn't name it at first

[sacred peak]

maybe givbe it a name

[hollow pine]

i'll try

[lucid sluice]

Could any1 help me modify my screen command? I now with the new update I need to add the -multihome command to prevent crashing on startup. If I do this in command prompt it works just fine but idk how to add it in the screen command. This is what I currently have but it crashes

[sacred peak]

i think MultiHome not multihome

[lucid sluice]

Nope, still crashes

[sacred peak]

i use only screen ./FactoryServer.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0
annd run it on the folder where the sh file is with the correct user and deactivated the cron

[hollow pine]

I still need to create a game, if i name it the same name, it would work ?

[spiral root]

Both work it isn't case sensitive

[sacred peak]

try it

[spiral root]

-multihome=:: for ipv6 support

[slim spoke]

dont name ur new the same as what u were playing

[sacred peak]

ahh, ok in my company some people code case sensitive so maybe, i dont know why somebody code casesensitive but somebody do 😅

[lucid sluice]

I made a new command in .bash_aliases, it works when I typ it in the console

[slim spoke]

just make a temp name and then load ur save using load session

multihome doesnt need caps its a switch in cmdline

[lucid sluice]

But how can i make it work in a screen command?

[hollow pine]

it rewrite again

[spiral root]

Change 192.168.1.158 to ::

[sacred peak]

mhh so im with my ideas at the end

[hollow pine]

I think it's a lost cause... But if it happen again it'll piss me off a lot

We got to oil stuff x)

[lucid sluice]

That works when i type it in the console but not within a screen command :/

[hollow pine]

Any others idea ?

[spiral root]

Wish threads was enabled in this room.

[lucid sluice]

That would make it a lot clearer

[sacred peak]

have you changed the map options?

[tranquil briar]

my working screen command

screen -S "satisfactory" -U -m -d ~/servers/SatisfactoryDedicatedServer/FactoryServer.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0

[hollow pine]

I just done that

i rename it also Frize_autosave_0

[spiral root]

Or create a start script and just screen run that.

[frosty gale]

Ok, but why run it in a screen and not as a background service?

[sacred peak]

can you sent me private your save file i try it on my servcer

[spiral root]

Teh ability to reattach to the console.

I use Tmux mind you not screen but still

[lucid sluice]

Doesn't work with me :(

[frosty gale]

The console doesn't seem very usable or informative at the moment?

[tranquil briar]

no reason for that, just to know how it works 😉

[frosty gale]

:)

[spiral root]

It is very useful for debug and I really hope we will be able to interact with the console outside of game soon.

[lucid sluice]

Wait it works, it just doesnt work when I add it to my .bash_aliases

[devout dune]

may I suggest running it as a service instead of using screen?

[spiral root]

Or simply use linuxGSM and it handles all of this for you.

With auto-updating - and monitoring too.

[lucid sluice]

Its not so relevant right now bc you cant do anything in the console, but with other servers I didnt know how to acces the console while its running as a service

[spiral root]

And still gives you the option to ./sfserver console and attach to the console/tmux session/

[devout dune]

honestly I feel these additional layers just complicate things

when its barebones it has no room for error

[devout dune]

does the server have an interactive linux console?

it has not been interactive for me

[spiral root]

Nope not yet.

[devout dune]

then why bother?

[lucid sluice]

No

Bc I already used screen with other servers so I could easily set it up

But screen works fine apparently

Its just .bash_aliases where it goes wrong

Thanks for the help

[devout dune]

how are you wrapping the command

exactly

@lucid sluice

paste the whole alias

[devout dune]

no idea

[lucid sluice]

Me neither XD

[frosty gale]

what are you talking about?

Startscripts?

[lucid sluice]

OMG IM SO DUMB

I didnt source the file

[orchid lodge]

hey i just got a server and where do i upload my save file i want to play on the server to?

[spiral root]

Linux or Windows?

[orchid lodge]

linux i think

[frosty gale]

guy, there is all you need to know: https://satisfactory.fandom.com/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[spiral root]

~/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SavedGames/server/

[orchid lodge]

ok thank you

[frosty gale]

wrong!

[spiral root]

No it isn't/

[frosty gale]

~/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/server/

SAVEGAMES not SAVEFILES

[rough turret]

thats friendly o.o

[spiral root]

Lol

[frosty gale]

and you missed the subdir Saved 😛

*Linux

[devout dune]

damn

[spiral root]

Fair for letting me know I made a mistake remembering the path from memory, wording could have been improved.

Sorry forgot to turn of ping.

[frosty gale]

i worked on a small Satis Server Manager Shell for linux

[spiral root]

My Goal is to emulate the server onto Arm that way I can run server for free with Oracle Cloud.

[sacred peak]

solved

[devout dune]

report back with results when you do so please

probably wont remember my @ by then but whatever

[hollow pine]

Yup tanks a lot for your time, you rock

[frosty gale]

There is still the issue in Satis-Client showing up the servers mostly shows a network error but server is up. after some refreshes it shows up.

[spiral root]

The Plague of Invisible Belts

[frosty gale]

it looks like the client has a very low timeout defined.

xD

[lofty latch]

that's just level 10 light-beam belts

[spiral root]

Lol

There is a belt going into every storage container

I don't understand what the rhyme no reason is for what does/doesn't disapear.

[red ridge]

The same thing happens to elevators

[spiral root]

Yep

And only way I can get them to return is a sever restart.

[red ridge]

būg

[spiral root]

Un-Ack-Septable - I expect my Experimental Early Access game to be flawless experience.

[slim spoke]

it goes from bug to bug perfectly fine.. enjoy

hehe 😛

bugs are just brain breaks from the game for sanity

[frosty gale]

lel found a lang issue on space elevator

it has mixed english and german:

😛

lel it is happens on ANY press E text

[spiral root]

Report on Q&A Site.

[sacred peak]

restart server

[spiral root]

I have and it returned on restart.

[sacred peak]

yes, thats an know bug

[spiral root]

Yeah I know.

It is fine until you need to add a splitter, upgrade or move a belt then its a pain.

Until then its just funny.

[crude tapir]

If you leave the area, and come back, they'll be back again I have found. It has something to do with the way the game renders them when there is a player in the area, I think. At least that's what I have noticed. It took a few extra minutes building coal, having to run 100m away and back every time my pipes disappeared.

[brisk parrot]

hi is there any fix to be able to see the dedicated server software on a steam account that doesnt own satisfactory

[spiral root]

I have tried that previously with mixed results only way I have found to 100% bring them back is a server restart but that isn't always the case sometimes it just happens again after restart.

Oh well.

No harm no foul.

[crude tapir]

Yeah, I keep trying to tell the guys playing on my server, that are brand new, that it's all just Experimental lol. One guy trying to build his first BUS system. Only doing 6 belts across the map. I'll let him figure it out 😉

[spiral root]

Lol.

[short tendon]

I've just been using steamcmd in the meantime, but it won't update to the latest version just yet

[slim spoke]

<@&387163995947270144>

[spiral root]

How was that not autodeleted by bot?

[slim spoke]

ya should be added

[frosty gale]

Yeah, maybe remove bit.ly from the allowed list

[slim spoke]

the msg is the same right now so u can just detect and remove

should just toss @ everyone posts

someone needs to ask baines to update it

[spiral root]

EPILEPSY WARNING!!!

Anyone Experienced this - Happened to me twice since yesterdays update.

[slim spoke]

hahahaha

some pay good money for that

[spiral root]

Ha Ha True that

Trippy.

[slim spoke]

thats wild i never seen it do that b4 in a game

[spiral root]

Only experienced it since yesterdays update.

But it requires a Client Side restart to stop.

[slim spoke]

well they did the sky and such didnt they

did u post on qa?

[spiral root]

I shall shortly.

Once and I count it as a one off, twice and its a bug.

[slim spoke]

ya

[wide pebble]

Hi guys... on the Experimental branch, dedicated server for Windows Steam, are there a way to change the Tier in which the server start ? Every game we start it starts on T2 .

[cedar notch]

Thats the new disco mode

[spiral root]

T2 is skipping the Tutorial so unless you start a game locally and then upload the files to the server simple answer - No.

[wide pebble]

Ok, thank you !

[undone plover]

Welp, since the latest update, whatever was making my attempts fail must have gotten fixed.

I have an instance running in WSL....and that can't possibly be an intended use case, lmao

[cobalt estuary]

Anyone come across this issue. The server was running fine up to the update overnight. I stopped it and updated via steamcmd and since then I cannot restart the server. It stops at the following in the log (running on a linux system)
Fatal error: [File:D:/ws/SB-160502110050-fad/UE4/Games/FactoryGame/Source/FactoryGame/Private/Server/FGServerQuerySocket.cpp] [Line: 25]
Could not bind address '0.0.0.0:15777'. Server cannot continue initialization.
Signal 11 caught.
I have installed a fresh copy of the server, same problem, rebooted the system , same problem. Tried running with the with the multhome=0.0.0.0 option, same problem.

[spiral root]

Yes that has been since yesterdays upday - running with multihome fixes it normally.

[undone plover]

*-multihome=0.0.0.0

[spiral root]

Try -multihome=::

[frosty gale]

this says only IPv6 Normally!

[frosty gale]

-multihome=0.0.0.0 is IPv4 only.

[spiral root]

0.0.0.0 is ipv4 - :: is both.

[frosty gale]

normally*

[undone plover]

Seriously, spelling matters. If you tried multhome instead of multihome, it wouldn't work.

[frosty gale]

nope :: normally is IPv6 Only Host Interfaces

in the IT lang!

[last jackal]

i am trying to make a server how do i do it ?

[solar remnant]

In socket binding lang its both.

[sacred peak]

https://satisfactory.fandom.com/wiki/Dedicated_servers

[frosty gale]

normally to bing both IPv4 and IPv6 All available interfaces you use 0.0.0.0, ::

[undone plover]

Who the actual fuck uses IPV6 in real life?

[solar remnant]

Some poeple, like ME

[dire rover]

i have the same problem here

[spiral root]

Lots of people.

However many people just don't realise they are,

[solar remnant]

And other people are behind CGNAT and only have public v6

[frosty gale]

i have a /64 IPv6 Static Subnet on my private internet @ home

and my server has /64 subnet too so why not using IPv6 😛

for a IPv4 i must pay, for IPv6 not.

[lofty latch]

almost all mobile network operators in the UK use it

if I leave my home, my phone does everything over IPv6

[slim spoke]

anyways

[undone plover]

Ah yes, I didn't consider trying to run a dedicated server on my phone

[lofty latch]

you wouldn't run it on your phone - but lots of people use 5G dongles to get internet access for their main home broadband

[slim spoke]

would be fun to see someone run the dedi on 1

[solar remnant]

But a matter of the fact is that a lot of people use IPv6, even if you don't or just don't realize it.

[dire rover]

true

[lofty latch]

there are lots of VPSs that are IPv6 only have have zero IPv4 connectivity except over a tunnel

because it saves money

[undone plover]

Ok, that's neat, but it really probably has nothing to do with dude's issue, which appeared to be spelling

[solar remnant]

256 IPv4 addresses costs 10K USD currently and IPv6 is practically free

[lofty latch]

dang

I've got a block of 16 IPv4 contiguous addresses xD

[frosty gale]

yeah but if you have IPv6 too then you have over 18 Million IPv6 Addresses.

i have*

[slim spoke]

did those people all get their servers fixed?

[solar remnant]

Does steamcmd even work on that as in in IPv6 only networks?

[slim spoke]

its good enough for now

[lofty latch]

It does

ah its 8 addresses not 16

a /29 range

[solar remnant]

Yeah, I got /29 too but I cannot use all of them :(

[dire rover]

but does anyone know what the problem is with this error

[solar remnant]

They borked something when they added IPv6 as it tries to bind twice.

[spiral root]

Yes they added IPv6 Support to the game and broke the detection script hence why we have to explicitly tell it.

[sacred peak]

i can tell you why when you reconnect to fast after a crash get sometimes as new player

[slim spoke]

no the double bind is the bug lol

they need to use -multihome=

[solar remnant]

Which apperantly doesn't work on IPv4 addresses? :D

[dire rover]

and where do i put that?

[slim spoke]

pick ur poison 0.0.0.0 or internalip

[spiral root]

Or external IP if the server knows it

[frosty gale]

-multihome=0.0.0.0 == Bind Only IPv4 Interfaces
-multihome=:: == Bind Only IPv6 Interfaces (normally but the devs changed it to both IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces)
or use
-multihome=IPv4 or IPv6 Static

[slim spoke]

multihome works with v4 and 6 since they added support

[solar remnant]

Devs haven't changed that. It's pretty much everywhere bind all.

[frosty gale]

lel its default by UE?

[dire rover]

but is there a way to disable IPv6 for now

[frosty gale]

yes

[dire rover]

or do we just wayt for another update

[frosty gale]

only use 0.0.0.0

[lofty latch]

I think I know what's up

[spiral root]

-multihome=0.0.0.0

[slim spoke]

but there is bug where if u usually use 0.0.0.0 then u multihome=0.0.0.0

it will stop the other crap from happening

[lofty latch]

the game might be trying to listen on 0.0.0.0 and :: on separate sockets - which doesn't work if V6ANY is in effect

[dire rover]

where can i change that

[lofty latch]

since listening on :: will listen on V4 sockets too

[slim spoke]

depends how ur server is setup

[lofty latch]

Bedrock Minecraft used to have this exact problem on Linux

[spiral root]

How do you launch the server?

[dire rover]

i have my own server add home

[frosty gale]

./FactoryServer.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0 -ServerQueryPort=13370 -NOSTEAM

[slim spoke]

on what using anything like docker?

[dire rover]

i run it by linux

[spiral root]

Again how do you start it? using a start script of using ./FactoryServer.sh ??

[solar remnant]

Even in that case, it can bind both if your Docker setup is done right

[dire rover]

i tryed docker but i dont fullyt understand it yet

[frosty gale]

start it like i written

[dire rover]

ai

thx

[slim spoke]

ya just finding out what they got

[dire rover]

i will try give me a sec

[dire rover]

same error when i do this

[frosty gale]

you starting them as a user or as root?

[dire rover]

normal user

[frosty gale]

and all files have the right perms?

[slim spoke]

dont u have to pass inside then

[dire rover]

yes

[slim spoke]

nm brainfart

[frosty gale]

what error you get?

[lofty latch]

hey does something want to try something?

[solar remnant]

./FactoryServer.sh -multihome=::

[lofty latch]

/etc/sysctl.conf - add

net.ipv6.bindv6only=1

[dire rover]

give me a sec

[frosty gale]

lel still bind issue

[lofty latch]

this might fix the problem without changing the launch arguments

[frosty gale]

he dont need ipv6

[lofty latch]

it'll stop it to try to bind on a V4 socket when listening to a V6 one.

[solar remnant]

And also stop v4 sockets from working. ;)

[slim spoke]

if u know the internalip u forwarded ports to use that

[lofty latch]

no, it won't

[dire rover]

diddent do it

[dire rover]

let me try

[lofty latch]

it doesn't mean "use IPV6 only" it means "Don't try and listen to IPv4 when instructed to listen to ipv6"

[solar remnant]

Oh, never mind. :D

[slim spoke]

it will bind it to the adapter's ip

[dire rover]

this one i mean

[frosty gale]

you want use IPv6?

[lofty latch]

that line isn't for using IPv6

it's a hunch I've got about how they've done this

[slim spoke]

lol should just use ip that ports goto

[solar remnant]

It changes how linux handles :: socket binding.

[lofty latch]

correct

[dire rover]

i only use v4 rn but v6 is enabled on my network

[frosty gale]

ah lel

i think your server is not fully closed

[slim spoke]

gamer did u forward ports?

[dire rover]

let me check

[frosty gale]

visit top or htop and look for FactoryGame

[lofty latch]

In short:

Suspicion: The default is that the game listens to :: - and on a separate socket tries to listen to 0.0.0.0

Problem: This doesn't work because listening on :: also listens on 0.0.0.0 by default unless bindv6only is enabled. So you end up trying to bind on 0.0.0.0 twice - which won't work.

Solution: Game game shouldn't try to listen on 0.0.0.0 as well as :: unless bindv6only is enabled.

[frosty gale]

kill them

[slim spoke]

if yes then use that ip for multihome

[frosty gale]

hehe

[dire rover]

yes it work befor the update

[lofty latch]

ooor unless IPV6_ONLY is set to setsockopt()

[frosty gale]

lel you running it via service

[slim spoke]

waiting til he reads 2nd msg

[frosty gale]

you need to change the service script where the startscript is defined

@dire rover

[solar remnant]

Someone actually traced the issue.

[dire rover]

i know i am starting it now by hand

[frosty gale]

yes but then you need to stop your service first

[dire rover]

i did

[solar remnant]

@lofty latch Look here in the comments: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/post/61830560831c852052359b1c

[slim spoke]

the ip u forwarded ports to -multihome=192.168.fix.me

[frosty gale]

then check if port 15777 is not in use

if not, try start manually again

[dire rover]

cant think of anything that would use that

but will check

[frosty gale]

or change the service script and add the -multihome=0.0.0.0 there

[dire rover]

give me a sec

[frosty gale]

try change this:
ExecStart=/home/your_user/satisfactory/FactoryServer.sh
to:
ExecStart=/home/your_user/satisfactory/FactoryServer.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0 -NOSTEAM

if not work try this:
ExecStart="/home/your_user/satisfactory/FactoryServer.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0 -NOSTEAM"

[whole warren]

So how good does your internet need to be to run a server

[spiral root]

Same as Multiplayer

[lofty latch]

looool I was dead on correct

[whole warren]

Oh well because I can join my friend multiplayer world but not his server any idea?

[spiral root]

Has he opened the ports on his router?

[solar remnant]

It's a very interesting bug to have. :D

[lofty latch]

It's the exact same bug that Minecraft Bedrock had because they made the same exact mistake

[whole warren]

Yes I believe so we'll actually he had to get another rougher because the one he had some how when he did an update got corrupted and he was starting to wonder if it would block random things to access it

[solar remnant]

To be far, that's quite easy mistake to make.

[lofty latch]

Especially because Windows doesn't produce this behaviour

[slim spoke]

if he fires both his game server and dedi behind router he has to make sure to fix ports

[whole warren]

Ok

[slim spoke]

change dedis to 3 others

[solar remnant]

Which means it probably wasn't tested on Linux but on Windows.

[unique bay]

could it be that nobeliks explosions are still buggy?

[lofty latch]

indeedy

[orchid lodge]

hey so i uploaded my save to the server and it isnt working

[solar remnant]

But at least we got IPv6 support. :D

And it does in fact work and the client accepts IPv6 addresses now too.

[slim spoke]

did u run server and create a save first .. just make a test one

[orchid lodge]

ok

[slim spoke]

then load your session - session being from old save file name

[orchid lodge]

ok thx

[slim spoke]

hope it helps

[orchid lodge]

will try it now thx for the help

[slim spoke]

cheers have fun

[cobalt kettle]

What sorta usage do you expect with a pretty packed satisfactory server? Considering throwing my dual xeons at it and them just beef through it

[solar remnant]

It's mostly RAM and CPU what it needs.

[cobalt kettle]

Well 128g of ram 20c 40t should do it with some to spare lol

[solar remnant]

Yeah, that should run it fine. :D

But even 10GB of RAM is probably plenty.

[cobalt kettle]

Hopefully fine enough that I can setup some virtualization

I've just got a f ton of server ram sitting around

[solar remnant]

Probably best thing to do is to just install a virtualization software on it and then run the server in a vm or container.

[cobalt kettle]

Prolly gonna throw it on a 4c8t vm, how big are world sizes?

[solar remnant]

Depends on the world I think.

[steady hollow]

^

[slim spoke]

worlds is always same size .. 5.4kmx5.4x2km

[steady hollow]

but I do feel like 16gb should be enough for os&server

[steady hollow]

more entities & information created by player = more space needed

[solar remnant]

But the question I think was the file size of the world.

[cobalt kettle]

Yeah planning to run a super light Linux distro on it anyways

[steady hollow]

about ram, 6-8gb is plenty

[cobalt kettle]

Prolly throw it 100gb it's in a 4u Im not lacking sata

Yeah prolly gonna assign it 16 for safety

[steady hollow]

16 is overboard lol

unless you plan to host a fckton of players

[slim spoke]

enkiel your talking about save file size

i said the world size is

[lofty latch]

I'm impressed with how fast the game server starts up

[steady hollow]

the wonders of C

[lofty latch]

++

[steady hollow]

doesnt unreal use C?

[lofty latch]

C++

[slim spoke]

server runs pretty nice so far

[cobalt kettle]

I don't but it better run beautifully

[spiral root]

Gets longer the larger the save file is but that is understandable

[steady hollow]

smooth like butter

[tranquil briar]

anyone got the server listed in the steam server list?

[lofty latch]

that said I've made a game server in Unity that starts up and accepts players in under a second - there's nothing specific to Unreal/C++ that makes it behave that way

[steady hollow]

I think that's for steamworks

[solar remnant]

That portion doesn't work.

[tranquil briar]

ah, ok 🙂

[spiral root]

Nope I am having to use SteamCMD as its not showing up in tools.

[hollow depot]

Short Question, is there a Structure Limit on Dedicated Servers? 🤔 Conveyors and elevators have disappeared or are not displayed, so I cannot upgrade them.

[spiral root]

This is a know bug with disapearing belts & lifts

Restart Server should re-appear

[hollow depot]

ok thanks ❤️

[royal moth]

Where you host your servers?

[spiral root]

On my own Dedicated VPS

[royal moth]

👍

[hollow depot]

Nitrado works fine 🙂

[royal moth]

thanks

[vocal jungle]

htop

oops

[south current]

A lot of the conveyor related issues are now showing as "Fixed Internally" on the Q&A page

[spiral root]

Yeah but as Jace said Tuesday that doesn't indicate when we will get the fix.

[steady hollow]

did bisect add hosting?

proper dedicated hosting

[spiral root]

No Bisect have Satisfactory servers though I believe I haven't looked.

[south current]

Guys read the pinned messages. "Advertising any type of service for dedicated servers is prohibited and goes against this server rules."

[steady hollow]

its not an advertisment

we aren't affiliated with them

[hollow depot]

this was a question 🤷‍♂️

[spiral root]

I shall delete but I wasn't advertising I was simply advising locations that I have used.

[steady hollow]

that post was added for a certain someone someone :P

[slim spoke]

lol

[vocal jungle]

was it added for me i like posts 4x4 posts 8x8 posts

[lofty latch]

Btw: /r/SatisfactoryServers/ and /r/satisfactoryadmins/ are things 🙂

Not that there's much in either just yet

[brisk parrot]

is there a way to fix the bug where i cant download the dedicated server manager on a steam account that doesnt own the game, or am i stuck with using steamcmd

[lofty latch]

steamcmd remains obligatory

[devout dune]

login anonymous

wait I didnt read properly

why would you want to skip steamcmd?

[brisk parrot]

i wanted to use the gui steam and not steamcmd

[lofty latch]

people be afraid of the command line xD

[devout dune]

hacker time

[lofty latch]

well I do have a black hoodie on ...

[brisk parrot]

i could use it if i ran it on my gaming pc but on a server i have to use a seperate steam account

[devout dune]

hacker time X2

[devout dune]

run a virtual machine

[lofty latch]

and grey cargos

[devout dune]

with linux

[devout dune]

steamcmd requires no account

[brisk parrot]

lol i dont use windows

[devout dune]

you can use login anonymous and download the server

[brisk parrot]

i even game on linux

[vocal jungle]

then you should know this

[devout dune]

WHY

[brisk parrot]

ive been running a dedicated server since launch of 5 btw, i was just curious if theres a fix to run it trhrough steam gui or not

[lofty latch]

install a management system that manages the accounts for you then and gives you a graphical interface to update it 😛

[vocal jungle]

why run headless if your just going to but a gui on it lol

[lofty latch]

who said anything about a GUI? web interface man 😉

manage it remotely, do it from your phone..

and only have anything visible when you need it

[ashen pecan]

Yup I discovered the magic of that last night lol

Forget dinking around between the wiki and this channel. Just load up a management panel and get back to playing

[lofty latch]

without giving the game away - did you happen to pick one that only requires one command to install? 😛

[ashen pecan]

I may have

[vocal jungle]

i know one but i already gave that guy money for a seven node license and then he updated it and lock me to just minecraft

[lofty latch]

lol

well it is a separate product 😛 be glad you got given an upgrade path! xD

but this is now OT

[vocal jungle]

lol

someday i may amp up my hosting of games but right now i am keeping the volume low

[lofty latch]

today has been busier for it actually, yesterday was very quiet

I wish we had an electric vehicle in the game that you recharged from the power grid

[vocal jungle]

they do its the hoverpack

[lofty latch]

is it me or is the wiki search not working?

also I want solar panels xD

in Satisfactory I used to make massive fields of solar panels and massive power storage arrays

[slim spoke]

wiki was working for me

[lofty latch]

when I hit search I get a white box

even with ublock disabled etc

[ashen pecan]

seems to be alive for me, in edge with ublock

[lofty latch]

hmm

[frosty gale]

My server is Crashing after Start.

[lofty latch]

see pins

[vocal jungle]

guess you need to wait for Refined power

[frosty gale]

I checked but i dont find the issue

[slim spoke]

u need to use -multihome=0.0.0.0

pass it in cmd line to start server

or with the .sh cmdline

Could not bind address '0.0.0.0:15777' <--thats is the problem its a known bug

[frosty gale]

#!/bin/sh
UE4_TRUE_SCRIPT_NAME=$(echo \"$0\" | xargs readlink -f)
UE4_PROJECT_ROOT=$(dirname "$UE4_TRUE_SCRIPT_NAME")
chmod +x "$UE4_PROJECT_ROOT/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4Server-Linux-Shipping"
"$UE4_PROJECT_ROOT/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4Server-Linux-Shipping" FactoryGame "$@" 
``` This is my start.sh should i add it when i start it ```./start.sh -multihome=0.0.0.0``` Or should i add it in there?

[slim spoke]

try

[fickle zinc]

inside the start.sh after FactoryGame

[vocal jungle]

add it to the where you call the staet.sh

[slim spoke]

"$UE4_PROJECT_ROOT/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4Server-Linux-Shipping" FactoryGame -multihome=0.0.0.0 "$@"

[vocal jungle]

if you add it to FactoryServer.sh it will be overwriten on updates

[slim spoke]

however u make it do that .. brain isnt fully working

that should work if urs doesnt

[quick mist]

Friendly warning

[frosty gale]

Working Thank you Guys

[slim spoke]

listen to him

[quick mist]

if you add -multihome to the start script that is created by downloading the server the changes may get destroyed when a new update rolls out

it would be better to add that to the place where you are calling FactoryGame.sh

[vocal jungle]

hmm think thats what i said too hehe

[quick mist]

for instance, I am using systemd, so I am doing this:

[slim spoke]

i said with .sh cmdline lol

couldnt remember rest

[vocal jungle]

you did but you posted a modifyed line from TactoryServer.sh lol

[quick mist]

This PSA has been brought to you by: Years of experience with config files getting blown away by git pull and apt update (:

[slim spoke]

nice

[vocal jungle]

and now i am Mike tyson

[quick mist]

did you eat somebody's ear?

[vocal jungle]

Tactoryterver.sh

[quick mist]

oh I thought that'd be <VOICE mode="falsetto" affect="lithp">FactoryGame.sh</VOICE>

[slim spoke]

lol and who posted the line? i just went with what the guy posted he had setup lol

safe server abusing .. its tv time

[pallid atlas]

[foggy agate]

use -mutlihome=yourIP

[quick mist]

see the Wiki to find out why

[pallid atlas]

Oh so something changed?

[quick mist]

yeah, a breaking bug which fortunately has a workaround was introduced in yesterday's update

[pallid atlas]

Thank you all! it's running now :)

[frosty gale]

Does anyone know what could be causing this please?

[snow belfry]

this is a default message where you lost connection to the server

its mostly when your server crashed

[quick mist]

Looks like the server is running on a nonstandard port

double-check that the server is running on the port you think it's on and that the port forward settings are consistent with where the server is running

[frosty gale]

15777 right?

[orchid lodge]

Hey so I uploaded my save to my server at

.config/epic/factorygame/saved/savegames/server

And how do I get my world from that directory to work on the server

[snow belfry]

well you are running or connecting to 15778 as you can see in your message

[quick mist]

normally, but

[frosty gale]

thats odd as the server is running on 15777

[orchid lodge]

Put the server as :7777 and connect with 15777

It worked for me

[snow belfry]

in your server manager did you do the correct 15777 as well ?

[quick mist]

hence "looks like you need to double-check"

[frosty gale]

I was running the game fine and had to re-install due to an update

[orchid lodge]

Hey so I uploaded my save to my server at

.config/epic/factorygame/saved/savegames/server

And how do I get my world from that directory to work on the server

[frosty gale]

and since then been getting that

[quick mist]

if you started a new instance without taking down the old one first the port assignments could get dodgy

[foggy agate]

just enter your session name into the server manager and then press enter

[quick mist]

Incursion: file and directory names on Linux are case-sensitive. If you uploaded to a lower-case path like that your files are in the wrong place

[foggy agate]

just like this

[orchid lodge]

I didnt add the caps and im using Linux through pterodactyl

[orchid lodge]

Ok ill try now

[quick mist]

DeeZ: is your server running on Linux or Windows?

[frosty gale]

Pterodactyl / Linux

It's been fine for a few days, but since the update borked and I had to destroy and rebuild I keep getting that

[snow belfry]

you killed all the processes ? got a correct restart script running ?

[foggy agate]

the session name is anything before the _autosave....

[quick mist]

okay, onthe host where it's running, run the following command and share the output:

ss -plnu | grep UE

[orchid lodge]

Yh thx it fixed it I put the auto save but

Bit

Thx

[frosty gale]

Output is blank

[quick mist]

then you either ran the command where the server isn't running, or the server died and needs to be restarted

this is what I get when I run that with an active server:

[snow belfry]

yeah thats why i said it looks like a general crash to me. Question was if he is actually running it via restart script or just starting it in putty

[frosty gale]

are you running it directly on the linux machine or pterodactyl?

[snow belfry]

now we know your server ip ! 😄

[frosty gale]

Because it is running

[quick mist]

I'll live

[ripe mist]

Anyone have a link to setup instructions for a server starting from scratch...I have Satisfactory on Epic so need to use SteamCMD I believe this is supposed to work okay if I do not own it on Steam

[quick mist]

I don't speak pterodactyl so I don't know if it does any containerization or anything

[orchid lodge]

Change the primary port to :7777

[frosty gale]

it does

[quick mist]

see the Wiki, Kraze

[orchid lodge]

My server is in ptera

[frosty gale]

all games are in docker containers

[orchid lodge]

Change the primary port to :7777

[snow belfry]

yeah i never used any pterodactyl as well, looks like its in docker containers

[quick mist]

okay, then the ss command would have to be run inside that container to see the listening ports

[frosty gale]

Trying this now

[orchid lodge]

Then connect through the 15777 port

[ripe mist]

I used the wiki but am a little stuck finding the server settings file

[quick mist]

the server settings files won't appear until you actually launch the server and have a game up and running

[ripe mist]

ahh okay, not sure what address to use then, sorry for being a little noobish here

[vocal jungle]

what ever the host ip is

[ripe mist]

okay thanks

[snow belfry]

@ripe mist if you setting up on linux and want a basic setup with systemd and without fancy docker crap 😄 i can help you setup

or is it on windows ?

[ripe mist]

on Windows

[orchid lodge]

Did it work?

[snow belfry]

well with windows it should be kinda easy 😄 but i never suggest windows as a server. Personally

[crimson gorge]

Whats the story with the default space elevator objective?

[frosty gale]

This worked thank you

[orchid lodge]

Np

[ripe mist]

no I get you, just a lot of hassle to run it on another system, and my rig is powerful enough to run it alongside the client I believe

[snow belfry]

well that makes no sense anyway, i mean dedicated server is so that you can leave it running while your pc is off

[ripe mist]

that is one reason

[snow belfry]

yeah i mean curiosity and testing might be a reason^^ 😄 idk

[ripe mist]

not really, I want to keep my world active while not running the client

[snow belfry]

which would mean tho that while it runs your pc uses more resources for that including more power. Cheap dedicated server would probably be a better idea, ofc if you don't play with multiple people maybe you dont need to spend the money ofc. Totally up to you.

[grizzled bobcat]

Hi , can i promote my server here ?

or it's against rules ?

[snow belfry]

nope sorry

[vocal jungle]

no

[quick mist]

#looking-for-group-old

[grizzled bobcat]

ok , where i can do that ?

[quick mist]

⬆️

[grizzled bobcat]

okaay

Thanks

[ripe mist]

Thanks for the advice, I was looking for help setting up the server more than advice on to whether it is worthwhile tbh 😉

[snow belfry]

yeah thats fine, wiki should help you out in that case, windows is straight forward, just follow the steamcmd section for windows and you should be good to go

[ripe mist]

yeah will do

[quick mist]

generally we're here for technical, not ethical or philosophical, discussions, though we can digress from time to time (:

[dapper blaze]

may i ask for help here? dedicated linux server

[snow belfry]

bogdan more work ! Less chatting ! need updates ! 😄

[snow belfry]

yeah^^

[dapper blaze]

Ok great... So, having trouble starting my server since last update - using latest version of lgsm. cant figure out why but it crashes with these last lines in log:

Unhandled Exception: SIGSEGV: invalid attempt to write memory at address 0x0000000000000003

[rose valley]

What's even more interesting, even linux doesn't always produce this behavior. It's dual stack mode, which hasn't always been a thing, that caused that cluster fuck. Basically, if you bind to ::, it will also bind to 0.0.0.0, in the network stack itself. If you do not want that, you need to set IPV6_V6ONLY on the socket but Unreal doesn't expose this flag in it's socket abstraction so you end up here. The right solution was to not fail as long as at least one local bind address worked. Oh well... sometimes you just can't get it right from the first try.

[snow belfry]

forgot to say the wiki link is in the pinned, did not mean to be rude, just helpful hope that came across. If you are stuck after wiki come back here and you will get help

[quick mist]

@rose valley at least we found a mitigation pretty quickly

[rose valley]

I'm proud of y'all! And sorry for the inconvenience!

[ripe mist]

np, have read the wiki link and just got a little stuck, I think I might just buy it again on Steam as I believe it will make things easier

[snow belfry]

@rose valley you saw my message in staging bug reports that the nobelisk is not fixed yet ?

[quick mist]

it's thanks to your having shared the -multihome argument that we were able to do so, so thanks for that!

[snow belfry]

who screwed that up ! i bet @royal solar ( i know him from working with him as volunteer for cig)

[rose valley]

I haven't worked on that in particular but if the original post on https://questions.satisfactorygame.com has been closed I'd open another one. I can also bring it up with the team tomorrow but there's a chance I'll forget.

[snow belfry]

its fine it is not an issue that is pressing

[vocal jungle]

i blame @rose valley for all the good things

[snow belfry]

i would not know what that error is, but since @rose valley is here at the moment.. maybe he can help ya out

[rose valley]

Actually it was someone else who discovered that. I learned about it from you! UE4 is yuge, man...

[royal solar]

I wish you didn't bet right. But it's indeed me

[snow belfry]

really '?!?!?! 😄

lol

[quick mist]

See the note in the Wiki, looks like you're having the rebind crash

[rose valley]

That looks like it could be the same server breaking bug that everyone is having. Try the -multihome workaround from the wiki and it will either confirm or rule it out.

[dapper blaze]

Ok sorry, didnt noticed "Post-Update" in wiki. -multihome=:: solved my problem, thanks! 🙂

[quick mist]

🍻

[snow belfry]

well fix it ! Étienne come on 😄 its basically unplayable !! Because of this, worst bug ever ! JK

[royal solar]

Yep. 😂 I'm working on it It works fine in solo and only break on the dedicated server

[snow belfry]

well then its partly bogdans fault !

[rose valley]

We're all to blame! Blame party!

[royal solar]

It's always Simon's tho

[quick mist]

is there pizza?

[snow belfry]

okay yeah simon

[vocal jungle]

first step is owning it second step is hiding the evedence and taking your name off the documentation

[lofty latch]

@rose valley aye I worked out it was ::, other games have had the exact same issue before.

[quick mist]

git blame is a powerful drug, Pleasure

[snow belfry]

ah okay yeah 🙂 good job^^

[ember thunder]

anyone has problems with timeout of server connection?

[snow belfry]

afte5r the update ?

[royal solar]

Not if git is not used

[quick mist]

...true

[snow belfry]

then it might be the -multihome issue

[ember thunder]

nah i have that fixed already i think

but whenever i join

it shows that i joines successfully

but it doesnt load the game and timeouts me after soem time

[snow belfry]

server still running afterwards ?

or does it crash and restart ?

check server logs

[ember thunder]

server still running

and a weird bug happens sometimes

it lets me move even though it shows that i have disconnected

something like desync i guess

and i can move, but cant interact

[snow belfry]

well the server has to output something that happens. Thats where you get the information

[lofty latch]

Scuse me while I set up a Satisfactory server from my car xD

[vocal jungle]

so glad floor holes got fixed in fairness was the feature i most wanted in update 5 lol

[quick mist]

S or X, Mike?

[lofty latch]

S

[quick mist]

... I suddenly really want to play this while charging up my 3 rather than Stardew

[lofty latch]

Lol

[ripe mist]

Got it working now 😉

[quick mist]

awesome Kraze!

[vocal jungle]

nice now i going to join mike's server and compete all his objectives that will show him

[snow belfry]

Officer to Ambulance Driver: The reason for the crash was some dude trying to figure out why his satisfactory server crashed while driving.. unbelievable!

[royal solar]

That moment when you stay at the super-charger for 3 hours instead of 20 minutes because you forgot the existence of time

[quick mist]

you know you're playing too much Satisfactory when you see traffic signals and wonder how they ran out of either power or cars to process

[snow belfry]

lol

you know when you are playing too much Satisfactory when you ask the electric company if they are using mk2 poles or mk3 poles

[vocal jungle]

also the power breaker went on his server i connected as a joke but now i want to fix the power

[thorny narwhal]

so im trying to join a server but getting info in game that its offline

my friend can see my trying to connect

any ideas ?

[hexed sky]

Hey guys, I am trying to setup a dedicated server, I'm doing so on Windows, and it's not working. However, I get some issues with it trying to get some SDK files for EOSS, but it's showing SSL cert errors.

[snow belfry]

multiple questions so we can help you : Your friend running the server on his machine ? If not is he running it on linux ? are the ports open ?

[hexed sky]

(I'm the friend with the server)

[thorny narwhal]

this guy

[hexed sky]

Yes, ports opened, and while testing firewall is off temporarily

once I have it working, I'll setup fw properly

[snow belfry]

router firewall tho right ? Not windows firewall

[hexed sky]

yes yes, connection comes in just fine

7777, 15777, and 15000 all firwarded

[minor narwhal]

on UDP right?

[hexed sky]

yup

[snow belfry]

pm me your ip i can try to connect lets see if i have same issue

[snow belfry]

server ip ofc

[vocal jungle]

trying to connect via external ip?

[snow belfry]

dont post it in here 😄

[hexed sky]

bu it seems when startng teh server the last thing is that it fails to get some EOSS files from the SDK, and complains the SSL cert is invalid; if I try the same links in my web browser I get them ok though

[snow belfry]

those errors can be ignored you will get lots of errors

[hexed sky]

using host name, but ip would be same result

[snow belfry]

as long as the server is running

[hexed sky]

ok, thanks.

[minor narwhal]

host name doesn't work, just IP

[hexed sky]

ok, will get him to try

but i see the connection come in, then it spams this.....

[royal solar]

Do you have any problems connecting to each others without the dedicated servers?

(like one hosts a game and the other tries to connect)

[lofty latch]

I've got 2 hours to kill and no laptop xD

[snow belfry]

so one question i ask because i had this issue myself: are you using your own accounts ? Oir is he maybe using your old epic account and you are using a steam account ?

[thorny narwhal]

im on my own acc

[hexed sky]

I don't have the game yet, I'm on the fence with buying it, somewhat contingent on getting a dedicated server runing, so that I can play well with friends 🙂

[snow belfry]

there is a problem when accounts are connected they no longer are able to join eachothers game 🙂 that was the reason for the question

[hexed sky]

I installed with login anonymous with steamcmd

[snow belfry]

the server

you cant actually "play" without the game

you can run the server but not the game

[hexed sky]

I know

[snow belfry]

so with what are you trying to connect ?

[thorny narwhal]

i have the game

[hexed sky]

My firend is trying to connect, once we get the server working, I would buy the game

[snow belfry]

ahhh okay

😄

[hexed sky]

Ace is trying to connect

[thorny narwhal]

🙂

[hexed sky]

I installed with this: steamcmd +login anonymous +app_update 1690800 validate +quit

[snow belfry]

yeah that is totally fine

send me your ip real quick, let me try to connect (dont worry i am not going to share it)

[subtle sundial]

pleasure came back from the dead wtf

[snow belfry]

and if i fail to connect send me the screens

[hexed sky]

ok, I think we might have progress, uno momento

[snow belfry]

also was there a "first connection" when first connecting it has to be setup

under create game etc

[hexed sky]

I think he just got the first connection wizard, previously did not get it

[snow belfry]

good

top right there is a "create game tab"

with all the settings

[snow belfry]

i am still dead

[devout dune]

does anybody know what the server logs when it unloads due to nobody being connected?

[snow belfry]

i have it setup so it still runs, or what do you mean ?

[devout dune]

I think it unloads the level when its doing nothing

[hexed sky]

I am getting this in logs during setup, but also when Ace connected to the server it came up:
[2021.11.04-16.05.27:224][680]LogGenericPlatformMisc: Error: SetEnvironmentVar not implemented for this platform: SteamAppId = 526870

It's red indicating error I think?

[devout dune]

by default

[snow belfry]

also fine, there are multiple reds always on a server

[hexed sky]

ok, good to know.

[royal solar]

Not much, should log the fact that is saves and then it doesn't really log anything until you let the game run even without anyone logged. Mines were only the auto-saves at least

[snow belfry]

the most important part is what happens at the end 🙂 if it actually "crashes"

[hexed sky]

hehe, yes

[thorny narwhal]

ok im in

[snow belfry]

now you screwed ! he is in ! now you have to buy the game xD

[hexed sky]

haha, yes!

Thanks guys!

[quick mist]

"Screwed"? or "prepared"? (:

[thorny narwhal]

server settings tab
create name and admin password

[vocal jungle]

both

[quick mist]

RIP all your free time for a while; have fun @hexed sky ! (:

[snow belfry]

screwed when he first realizes what the f he needs for tier 7

[royal solar]

Glad you got it working. 🙂

[thorny narwhal]

yeah ....

[snow belfry]

don't hesitate to come back here if you need more help

i always suggest in the settings to have it not pause when offline (more materials for you)

[lofty latch]

I hope the logging improves in future updates. It's a little inconsistent right now.

[snow belfry]

probably also erio's fault ! 😄

[royal solar]

Not me this time

[rose valley]

I know of a pretty good way of letting the devs know exactly what bothers you 😁

[lofty latch]

Lol aye xD

[snow belfry]

mass pm jace and snutt ?

[royal solar]

You mean going to the QA website? 👀

[lofty latch]

If only there was some official repository for feedback...

[hexed sky]

Is the server going to be on expiremental by default, or do I need to set some config for that all all, btw?

[lofty latch]

Some kind of website...

[rose valley]

Both would work lmao

[lofty latch]

Lol

[royal solar]

For now the default steam branch is experimental 🙂

[rose valley]

No need to do anything to change to experimental. The default branch is experimental for now.

[lofty latch]

Eugh I'm on mobile, so hard to type up a proper report xD

[snow belfry]

@royal solar sending you pm again 😄 wanna tell you funny story about our Star Citizen volunteering 🙂

[hexed sky]

Awesome, thx for confirming!

[lofty latch]

Btw, what was the prerequisite for the pioneer role? Wasn't that anyone who was in the private alpha?

Or is that something else

[snow belfry]

active people are generally put in there every once in a while. Then there is a difference between them as well, with staging and stuff (which is the only thing i am going to say because of NDA)

but basically: css chooses them every once in a while

i dont think there was much change for a while tho

[lofty latch]

Gotcha, there's no specific role for people who were in the alpha

[snow belfry]

exactly. I will ask jace at some point to add the guys to pioneer/staging on the top Q&A supporter grp^^

i mean they would be the most useful 🙂

[lofty latch]

👍

[wild grail]

After the latest update, my server wont start anymore

[lofty latch]

@wild grail see pinned posts

And the wiki

[snow belfry]

@wild grail you have to add -multihome

[foggy agate]

use -multihome=yourIP

[wild grail]

ahhhhh

[foggy agate]

in the start command

[dense kelp]

Does anyone have issues when join a dedicated server, of Unreal Crashes? This is the fatal error.

[Line: 1431] Null SRV (resource 0 bind 0) on UB Layout FInstancedStaticMeshVertexFactoryUniformShaderParameters

[wild grail]

seems to be working now, thanks alot guys.

[sacred peak]

does the billboard save everythink but not the backround color is that right?

[thorny narwhal]

apart from the odd bit of desync on the conveyours it all seems to be up and running smoothly

[snow belfry]

yeah servers run quite well, ofc there are going to be issues, at first but all in all running great on my end as well

[thorny narwhal]

they seem to be alot smoother especially on observing character movement of other people than when we did a run with one of us hosting

[scenic talon]

Has anyone seen after a short idle period that hitting the inventory/configure button for buildings no longer works? It's happened on the last two server versions.

it crashed on me

[quick mist]

at startup?

after updating?

[royal solar]

It's polite at least... It said good bye.. 😄

[quick mist]

if yes and yes, check the wiki (see the past Pin)

[deep forge]

ah yes, ill try some of that 🙂

[lofty latch]

Does the server open a lot of file handles?

The number of crash reports I'm seeing for too many open files on users with satisfactory servers is going up.

[vocal jungle]

almost fixed your power CCL

[lofty latch]

👍

[vocal jungle]

just need to find some more rotors lp;

[lofty latch]

Actually that's a really sharp increase...

@rose valley forgive me for pinging you but do you have any numbers for the number of file handles the server is holding open? I'm seeing a spike in "too many open files" crashes affecting different distros etc on Linux confined to Satisfactory instances. Seems to be affecting users who are on the new update specifically.

nope it's still going down

[lofty latch]

@deep forge see pinned posts and the wiki.

You need new startup flags.

[deep forge]

i added the -multihome to the start_server.sh under #launch the server

[tacit finch]

Mhm after the update my server doesnt want to start...

[frosty gale]

hm thats weird... i started my server with multihome=:: after the update, the server started, is running, i can connect to it, all fine... but why can't i see the open ports of it? netstat -tulpn | grep LISTEN doesn't show any port of the gameserver

[quick mist]

try ss -plnu | grep UE

[frosty gale]

oof xD the ports are udp ye sure

[lost plover]

They just fixed the server issue

[quick mist]

oh?

[lost plover]

#patch-notes

[quick mist]

\o/

[civic barn]

yay 😉

[frosty gale]

i just restarted the server and now we have an update? arghs 😄

haha

[deep forge]

ah yes, i just restarted my script and now it runs 🙂

[quick mist]

sweet

[deep forge]

hard time looking for a problem that isn't there 🙂

[clever anvil]

Should we be leaving the -MultiHome=0.0.0.0 flag on dedicated servers with the 5.0.7 patch?

[quick mist]

guess on my lunch break I can update the note on the Wiki to say "update again" as a fix (:

it can't hurt unless you want to use IPv6

[frosty gale]

if you use MultiHome=:: the servers uses both, ipv6 and ipv4

[clever anvil]

It's 2021, haven't we abandoned IPv6 </sad sarcasm>

[lost plover]

I removed mine and my server came up

[frosty gale]

can't wait to see ipv4 die

[vocal jungle]

@lofty latch could have warned me lol

[quick mist]

I'm waiting for IPv5

[frosty gale]

aaand now wait for the client update 😛

[quick mist]

actually scratch that, let's go back to IPX/SPX

[lofty latch]

@frosty gale there are still places using Haynes for communication. 1200 baud.

Most security systems still support it.

[quick mist]

Underwear? Or did you mean Hayes?

because that's not limited to 1200 baud; Hayes is just a Modem command set.

[clever anvil]

(maybe you know this) odd numbers of the IP protocol are specifically reserved for testing / developing next-gen.

[quick mist]

yes, I know jump (:

[frosty gale]

i got a C64 from my dad i just used as a child with a dataphon s21 😄 well..

[lofty latch]

All about that acoustic coupler life boye

[rigid walrus]

When stopping a service running the dedicated server, will it save as it shutsdown? If not, is there a way to trigger a save to the service instance without needing to open the console in the client game?

[frosty gale]

not till now but servers are saving every 5min

[quick mist]

The server currently saves every 5 minutes when active, or anytime anyone leaves the server, or when the server.SaveGame command is used on the Server Manager console

[rigid walrus]

Is that the only place the command can be used?

[frosty gale]

yep

[quick mist]

to the best of my information and awareness, yes

[rigid walrus]

Hm okay, ty for the info

[frosty gale]

i'm sure we get more features soon™

[deep forge]

you could copy the autosave file to a new file?

[vocal jungle]

lost my motovation @lofty latch your power is only half fixed

[quick mist]

we just got a great new feature of "no longer crash on Linux out of the box" so I'm pretty happy

[lofty latch]

Lol

[rigid walrus]

My desire is to save the moment before I shutdown, so there is no rollback at all

[frosty gale]

when i first seen the multihome parameter i got flashbacks in administrating Ark servers... wuarghs

[plush iris]

my client is updated

[quick mist]

the best way to do that is to use the console to save, and then use the console to quit, shutting down the server

[lofty latch]

Server should save when you send it a SIGINT or SIGQUIT

[vocal jungle]

follow the pure copper line to find you coal gens lpl

[frosty gale]

Epic or Steam?

[plush iris]

steam, updated at 6pm already

[deep forge]

client steam here is also updating.. but don't know to 6 or 7 🙂

[frosty gale]

restarted steam now i get the update too 😄

[plush iris]

to 7 cuz i did the update to 6 yesterday already :p

another update?

[spiral root]

YAY - BUG FIXES
• Fixed conveyor belt items behaving incorrectly
• Fixed vehicles not docking properly when in long-distance simulation mode

[plush iris]

my server is down 😮

[vocal jungle]

down or needs a update

[plush iris]

down

i updated

[ripe mist]

updated client and server but belts are still acting weird

[plush iris]

after like 3 minutes it turned itself off

[vocal jungle]

how long ago did you update

[oblique saddle]

i am waiting for nitrado to update there side.

[ripe mist]

just a moment ago, like 2 mins

[tame solar]

can you confirm it doesn't happen anymore? (so the relevant note on the wiki can be removed)

[plush iris]

couple minutes

[vocal jungle]

linux or windows

[hot ivy]

What's the latest version for the dedicated server? Updated via steamcmd a couple of minutes ago but getting 171407, not 171579.

[rose valley]

So, is it still crashing even after updating?

[vocal jungle]

linux or windows

[hot ivy]

Windows

[vocal jungle]

did you run the update in steamcmd ?

[hot ivy]

Yes.

[vocal jungle]

did you use the command wiht Force_install_dir

[spiral root]

Remember updates can take a few moments to populate across the CDN.

[wraith pebble]

Does the linux server work without the -multihome parameter now?

[vocal jungle]

i know it works with it still i just left it there cause it doesnt hurt anything with it being there

and i am to lazy to edit my script

[frigid slate]

Does anyone have experience with ich777's Docker dedicated server for Unraid?

[spiral root]

Trying now.

[vocal jungle]

I tryed it out yes

[spiral root]

YES loads without the multihome

[vocal jungle]

it worked then i removed it

[spiral root]

Though since latest update my GPU is pinned on 100% on the splash screen while connecting.

[rose valley]

Awesome! Now it would be great if someone would be able to confirm IPv6 connectivity over WAN works.

[quick mist]

I can test that tonight once I'm not longer "at" work

[hot ivy]

Solved the issue. app_update 1690800 validate in steamcmd didn't work, but weirdly force_install_dir <dir> did.

[viral wraith]

anyone else getting this?

[spiral root]

If you did force_install_dir with the first install you need to do it with each update too otherwise it looks to the wrong directory.

[spiral root]

After lastest update?

[viral wraith]

yep

[spiral root]

Anything else before or after it?

[viral wraith]

thats all i can see

i dont have access to the server directly but my friend is screensharing and afk

[spiral root]

Windows Build to.

[vocal jungle]

when you ran app_update 1690800 validate this first time without the force flag did it do somthing

[viral wraith]

its on linux

he's just ssh'd to a vm

[spiral root]

But its talking about drive D:\

[vocal jungle]

cause if it did you now have it installed twice

[viral wraith]

yes its talking bout drive D:\

[spiral root]

Linux doesn't use drives like D:\

[viral wraith]

thats the CI's build path coz its pointing to a source file

its being compiled on windows on coffeestains end

[spiral root]

So this is interesting...

[covert shore]

good evening I have a dedicated server and I have a lot of texture bug with items floating in the air too?

Couldn't connect to server after update-

[tacit finch]

Trains still not loading

[spiral root]

Just managed to connect and fell through the world

[warm canyon]

When I'm opening a port, which one do I select for the dedicated servers?

[tranquil idol]

👀, aren't you in D#+ too?

[vocal jungle]

15777 15000 777

er 7777

[warm canyon]

I know the ports but which one do I select, allow the connection?

[viral wraith]

yes?

[tranquil idol]

Fun

[quick mist]

@warm canyon there is a single command on the Wiki that will add a firewall rule for all three ports for you

[lavish cliff]

He is. Also, it’s my screenshot, tbh I should’ve just asked here first lol

And confirming, it IS Linux
