Community Guidelines:

  • Be Nice
  • SAVE a local copy of the game EVERYTIME you finish a session.

Community Kanban:

This server will be up for a month (Oct21-Nov21), it’s hosted on a game hosting service. I trust everyone here to be nice, but if there is a problem @ me, and we can revert a save.

The server admin (me) will be able to see your factorio username, and your ip address.

Not familiar with multiplayer. What's the reason for saving a local copy of the game?

In case something horrible happens

You have access to saves that clients initiate on their end?

No, distributing the state of the map across the participants gives us resilience against any issues from bugs, server issues, or griefers.

I like to join, but I have a strict “solo first” rule with games. I will come back as soon as I’m done!

1412529629 is the map seed, Server is online!

Should we setup a voice jitsi or mikro room?

Using AleForge for the hosting, first time I tried them out. They said they accept crypto, sadly it's through bitpay which requires so much KYC (biometrics + passport) they might as well not advertise crypto at all. Hopefully they can sort out their crypto payment pipeline going forward.

User verification is not enabled, so unless it becomes a problem, any local lan copies of the game you might have should be able to connect no problems.

You play Factorio? Fancy that! Space federation transcends logistics

I used to, but didn't have much time to play it lately. I still keep an eye on the game, it's so unique

In two hours, login and build a smelter, it will do you a world of good.
