Satisfactory Dedicated Server Optimization: Best Settings for 1.0

With the release of Satisfactory 1.0, dedicated servers have received significant stability updates. However, as your factory grows into the late game with thousands of machines and belts, even the most powerful dedicated server can struggle. This guide covers the essential optimizations to keep your world running at a smooth 30 TPS (Ticks Per Second).

⚡ Tick Rate

By default, the server targets 30 TPS. If your hardware lags, this drops, causing "rubber-banding" and slow belt production.

🧠 RAM Management

Satisfactory 1.0 is more memory-efficient, but large saves still require at least 8GB to 12GB of dedicated RAM for stability.

Essential Engine.ini Tweaks

To improve network performance and reduce lag during autosaves, you should modify your Engine.ini file (found in the server's configuration directory). Add or update the following lines:

[/Script/Engine.Player]
ConfiguredInternetSpeed=104857600
ConfiguredLanSpeed=104857600

[/Script/OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver]
MaxClientRate=104857600
MaxInternetClientRate=104857600

These settings increase the allowable bandwidth between the server and clients, which is crucial for large factories with many moving parts.

In-Game Server Settings

Network Quality

In the Satisfactory main menu, ensure your Network Quality is set to "Ultra". On the server side, ensure the ServerSettings.ini has the mNetworkQuality set correctly. Low network quality will cap your data transfer, leading to desync.

Autosave Intervals

Large saves can cause "save lag" where the server freezes for several seconds. To mitigate this:

  • Increase the Autosave Interval to 30 or 60 minutes.
  • Use an SSD (NVMe preferred) to reduce the time the server is locked during the write process.

Pro Tip: Build your factory in separate "cells" across the map rather than one giant mega-base. This helps the engine manage calculations more efficiently through occlusion culling and actor relevance.

Professional Hosting Solutions

Manually managing INI files and hardware upgrades can be a headache. At Supercraft, we provide high-performance Satisfactory server hosting running on Ryzen 9 processors and NVMe storage, ensuring your 1.0 factory remains lag-free from the first Iron Plate to the final Space Elevator tier.
