How To Setup A Satisfactory Server

Satisfactory Server RAM Requirements

The amount of RAM needed for a Satisfactory server depends on your save file size, the number of players, and the size of your factory. For smooth performance, 8GB of RAM is generally recommended—especially if you are running both the server and the game client on the same machine.

• More players or larger factories may require additional RAM.

• Monitor your server process and check logs to see if you're using all available memory.

• If you use dynamic DNS or run a dual-stack Linux system, extra RAM can help the Unreal game server process run smoothly.

• Review your server’s install directory and allocate RAM based on your factory’s scale.
