​
Factory Optimization

Belt Design:
  • Use direct routing, avoid complex intersections
  • Minimize belt length and unnecessary splitters
  • Stack belts vertically to save space
Machine Layout:
  • Group similar machines together
  • Use local storage for intermediate products
  • Implement central power distribution
Building Tips:
  • Use minimal foundations and decorative elements
  • Avoid excessive lighting in automated areas
  • Remove unused structures regularly

Hardware Requirements

Factory SizeCPURAMStorage
Small (1-2 players)4 cores8GB20GB SSD
Medium (3-4 players)6 cores16GB40GB NVMe
Large factories8+ cores32GB60GB+ NVMe
Maintenance:
  • Restart server daily
  • Clean up old save files
  • Monitor memory usage
  • Use SSD storage

​
Performance Monitoring

Key Metrics:
  • Server FPS (target: 30+)
  • Memory usage (under 80%)
  • CPU utilization
  • Network latency (under 100ms)
Monitoring Tools:
  • Press Ctrl + Shift + L for performance overlay
  • Use stat fps console command
  • Monitor task manager for resource usage

​
Best Practices

Factory Design:
  • Use modular production areas
  • Implement power zones with switches
  • Plan belt routing before building
  • Minimize transport distances
Maintenance:
  • Restart server daily
  • Clean up save files weekly
  • Monitor performance metrics
  • Update software regularly
