#FACTORIO TUTORIAL HOW TO#
How to create/scp your own save (re-apply chown).Much love "Connect to a server", provide your address that you set it up against (and port if you changed it from the default) and play spend hours labouring over tiny details to maximize efficiency! TODO: I don't really play anymore and haven't setup or managed a Factorio server in years, so I'll advise if something isn't working to check the comments and forks. You can open them at any time by clicking the 'hat' button in the upper right corner. There's also the in-game tutorials - learning by doing works better than learning by watching for most people. Instead of spending hours trying to find a video that is 'just right'. Just a note to newcomers: If there are any issues with the installation steps, people in the comments are doing a good job at mentioning steps required by newer installations. I generally recommend the 'self taught' approach. The version of Factorio I shall be using is 0.14.20, although should work for any version of Factorio 0.14.12 and higher.

Although, that shouldn't matter, as long as your distro supports systemd (just for this guide, not a Factorio headless requirement, although most distros use it as standard now). The specific distro/version I'm using for this guide being Ubuntu Server 16.04.1 LTS. Although, I thought the process could be nailed down/simplified to be a bit more 'tutorialised' and also to document how I got it all working for my future records. So, with credit to the Factorio wiki and cbednarski's helpful gist, I managed to eventually setup a Factorio headless server.
