Satisfactory Dedicated Server: The Complete Guide

Satisfactory is one of the best factory-building games, and with a dedicated server, you can build together with friends without anyone needing to act as host. In this guide, we explain everything.

System Requirements

  • RAM: 4-6 GB for small factories (1-4 players). 8-12 GB for extended factories.
  • CPU: At least 2 cores. The server gets heavier as your factory grows.
  • Storage: 5-10 GB, growing with your save game.

Installation

At HostValues, you install Satisfactory with one click through the game panel. Manually, it's done via SteamCMD with app ID 1690800. The server is available on port 7777 (UDP) and 15000 (UDP query).

Save Game Management

Satisfactory save games can grow large (hundreds of MB with mega-factories). Tips:

  • Make regular backups through the game panel
  • An existing singleplayer save can be uploaded as a multiplayer save
  • Set the autosave interval through the in-game server manager

Performance Tips

  • Use NVMe storage for faster load times
  • Limit the number of Train Stations and conveyor belts if the server slows down
  • Restart the server regularly (every 24-48 hours)
