Let’s try a little experiment, How about a Lemmy satisfactory multiplayer server?

  • Server Connection: 173.214.160.30:8992
  • ServerName: LemmyAndFriends
  • Password: lemmy

Up to 10 concurrent players, based in California.

I’ll leave it up for 10 days until Oct 25th. Let’s see how it goes

This is hosted by a game hosting provider, so its not my personal network or computers.

The game is freshly started in the Dune Desert.

    Hello! I popped on for a few minutes today to check out the server! Looks like a good start.

    I threw some extra portable miners up on the copper and limestone to the south (near the oasis) and set up a few storages and constructors to improve the power grid. Hopefully I can rejoin sometime soon when others are available.

    Addition: Well I had some extra time so I played around in your (our?) world a little more. Upgraded the power plant, ran some spaghetti belts for copper and limestone to the main factory. I started on a plate factory when I realized assemblers weren’t unlocked yet and I didn’t want to attempt any milestones without other people on. So I gave up on that idea for now. Assuming the biofuel holds out, there ought to be enough materials to build the elevator after a little while!

      i unlocked a few base building and logistics milestones before you joined; i wanted to try and keep things at least a little organized in that way. ive never played on a (semi) public server before so i don’t quite know the etiquette 😅

        I haven’t played Satisfactory (or any factory game) in MP either! Hopefully we’re finding a good balance.

        Feeling emboldened by what you said, I went ahead and unlocked a few additional milestones we had the resources stocked for. Area Clearing gets solid fuel and the chainsaw which both help out with power until coal is unlocked. I updated the power plant to use the new fuel.

        Field Research because I just really wanted the map, haha. I built a MAM but didn’t research anything. ADA’s commentary for most milestones is meh but I find the research comments pretty funny and wanted to leave them for others to enjoy.

        And Assembly because I really wanted to build that reinforced plate factory! We already had mark 2 belts but you need so many plates for everything! So now we’ve got a plate factory slowly cranking them out.

        I left some extra equipment in the Hub chest, save folks the build time. There’s most of tier 2 still to unlock. Lots of MAM research to do. Some iron nearby that could make a nice rotor factory. And the space elevator should be ready to build now! Make sure to clear a big spot for it!
