Factorio Server Hosting FAQ.
How much RAM does Factorio need on a dedicated server?
4-8 GB for most maps. Megabase saves with tens of thousands of entities are the case that needs more, since the whole factory is simulated every tick.
Can I install mods when hosting Factorio?
Yes, from the official mod portal. Mods live in the mods folder and clients download them from the server automatically on join, so players do not install anything by hand.
How many players can Factorio support on one server?
10-50. Factorio is single-threaded for the game update, so a large factory limits tick rate long before player count does.
How do I change Factorio server settings on GameTeam?
Settings for Factorio live in server-settings.json, which you can edit directly in the panel file manager. You can also describe the change in plain language and let the GameTeam AI copilot make it β it reads the file first, applies the edit and reads the value back, so you can see what actually changed. Console access, power controls, backups and schedules stay available either way.
