# Introduction
|
|
This repository was forked from [carloe/docker-factorio](https://hub.docker.com/r/carloe/docker-factorio/) to build a custom configured server and provide extra information on how to setup a server using docker.

# Server Setup
|
|
|
|
The easiest way to setup a server by far, is to use [Digital Ocean.](https://m.do.co/c/ebb875976e21) Follow the link to signup and get $10 for free to start you off. This guide assumes your are using a Mac, Windows users may have to alter their method when it comes to terminal usage. Disclaimer: All referrals generate credit to my account for more server goodness.

|
|
|
1. Sign up to [Digital Ocean](https://m.do.co/c/ebb875976e21)
|
|
2. Click 'Create droplet' button

|
|
5. Select the '$5/mo' size, this is fine for a basic multiplayer server

|
|
7. Add your [SSH public key](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-ssh-keys--2). Alternatively, you will need to take note of the password that Digital Ocean emails to you after you setup the server.
|
|
8. You will only need 1 droplet, name your server and click create

# Connect to your server
|
|
|
|
Windows users will need to look at alterations for using PuTTY.
|
|
|
|
1. Make note of the IP address of your server (ipv4)
|
|

|
|
2. Open terminal
|
|
3. `ssh root@IPaddress`, obviously replace 'IPaddress' with the IP address.
|
|
|
|
# Build Your Server
|
|
|
|
The latest Factorio headless server is downloaded at build time.
|
|
|
|
1. `git clone https://github.com/LpmRaven/factorio-docker-server.git`
|
|
2. `cd factorio-docker-server`
|
|
3. Config your server (see section below then return here)
|
|
4. `docker build -t factorio-instance-name .`
|
|
|
|
# Server Configuration
|
|
|
|
1. `open .`
|
|
2. Edit the map-gen-settings.json file and the server-settings.json file (DO NOT RENAME THE FILES)
|
|
3. Continue to read the previous section
|
|
|
|
# Persisting Saves
|
|
|
|
Use a docker volume to persist the savegames on the host machine rather than in the docker container.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
mkdir $(pwd)/saves
|
|
|
|
# Make sure the saves dir can be written to by the "factorio" user in Docker, with uid 1000
|
|
sudo chown 1000:1000 $(pwd)/saves
|
|
# (alternatively, if you don't have root): chmod 777 $(pwd)/saves
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Basic Usage
|
|
|
|
The init script will automatically create a new save game if none exists.
|
|
|
|
Then launch your container as usual.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -d \
|
|
-v $(pwd)/saves:/opt/factorio/saves \
|
|
-p 34197:34197/udp \
|
|
--restart=always \
|
|
--name factorio-server \
|
|
factorio-instance-name
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
# Play the game!
|
|
|
|
1. Open Factorio
|
|
2. Connect to your server `IPaddress:34197`, change IP address obviously.
|
|
3. Default password is `donationswelcome`, feel free to change it.
|
|
4. Play the game!
|
|
|
|
Enjoy. Hope this guide helped you setup your factorio server!
