Setting up and connecting to your server

Currently there are no settings to be configured from the panel for satisfactory as all of the configuration is done when you first connect to your server. The guide below will go through the steps of connecting and configuring your server.

Setting up the server

Start the server up on the panel using the green power button in the top right and then start up Satisfactory on your computer

Once the game has started and you are on the main menu, click on Server Manager

Now click on the Add Server button

You will now get a box asking you to enter the Address and Port, leave the port as default, you can find the address on the Access page of the panel (you can use either the IP or hostname, we recommend using the hostname).

After clicking confirm you will now get a message box asking you to name your server, you can name this anything you want.

Upon clicking confirm you will then be asked to enter a password for the server, again this can be anything you want it to be (we recommend you not use a password that is simple to guess or one you use for any online accounts.)

After clicking confirm you will now be shown the "Status" screen which will tell you to create or load a game.
To create a game click on Create Game at the top of the screen
