Factorio server hosting,
UPS-stable to the last belt.
The factory must grow - and every belt, inserter, and chunk depends on a server that can keep up. Factorio's headless server lives or dies by single-thread CPU and disk speed. Pulsar67 SAS SSD + honest vCPUs keep your megabase at 60 UPS even when biters get angry. From $5/mo.
Factorio doesn't forgive bad CPU.
Factorio's simulation runs on a single thread and is brutally honest about clock speed and cache. A "shared" VPS where 60 neighbors fight for the same physical core will drop UPS the moment you build a bus.
Our vCPUs are pinned to fewer neighbors. Your megabase gets the cycles you're paying for, and the world saves to SAS SSD so the autosave hitch is sub-second.
Strong single-thread
Modern Xeon cores, not oversubscribed shared cores. Your tick rate stays at 60 UPS where it should.
SAS SSD saves
Autosave on a 200 MB world doesn't pause anyone. Disk writes finish before the next tick.
Mod-friendly
Space Age, Krastorio 2, Bob's, Angel's, K2SE - install whatever your group wants. Full root.
DDoS protected
Always-on L3/L4 mitigation helps keep the public Factorio port reachable during attacks.
Sizing for megabase ambition.
A fresh save runs on Nano. A bus stretching 30 chunks wants Pro.

From order to first iron plate.
The factory must grow. The setup, however, is quick.
- A Pulsar67 VPS (Pulsar Pro for serious bases)
- Ubuntu 22.04 or Debian 12
- The Factorio headless server tarball from factorio.com/get-download/stable/headless/linux64
- A
server-settings.json(start from the included example) - UDP port 34197 open (or whatever you change it to)
- A systemd unit so the server survives logouts and reboots
- A backup cadence - autosave files in
~/.factorio/saves/ - Optional: mod-portal credentials in
player-data.jsonto auto-download mods
A host that respects the tick.
Modern Xeon cores
High clock + big cache. Where Factorio's single-thread sim lives or dies.

Clear monthly pricing
The price on the box is the price. No "megabase surcharge."
