Satisfactory dedicated servers allow you to build factories with friends on a persistent world. This guide covers how to connect to your server using the in-game Server Manager.
If your server hasn't been claimed yet, the first player to connect will need to claim it and set an admin password. See How to Claim Your Satisfactory Server for details.
Finding Your Server Address
- Navigate to the Wabbanode Control Panel and select your Satisfactory server.
- Find the Server Address in the sidebar on the left side of the panel.

Your server address includes the IP and port (e.g., 123.456.78.90:7777). The default port for Satisfactory is 7777.
Connecting to Your Server
- Launch Satisfactory from Steam or Epic Games.
- From the main menu, click Server Manager.

- Click Add Server in the bottom left and enter your server's IP address and port.

- Click Confirm to add the server to your list.
- Select your server and click Join Game (or Claim Server if unclaimed).
After Connecting
Once connected to your server:
- If the server is unclaimed, you'll be prompted to claim it and set an admin password.
- If claimed, you'll join the active game session.
- Other players can join using the same server address.
Satisfactory servers do NOT auto-save when stopped. Always save your game before stopping the server to prevent progress loss.
Troubleshooting
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Cannot connect | Verify the server is running and IP/port are correct |
| Server not responding | Check if the server is still starting up (can take a few minutes) |
| Version mismatch | Ensure your game version matches the server (Stable vs Experimental) |
You're now connected to your Satisfactory server. Start building your factory empire with friends!
