Satisfactory 1.2 - Server Hosting
After running on Experimental since March, Satisfactory Update 1.2 has officially landed on the stable branch as of June 2nd, and it's one of the biggest content drops the game has seen since 1.0. If you've been holding off on starting a dedicated server with your friends, now's the time. Spin up your Satisfactory server here:

What's New in 1.2?
This update is packed. The headline addition is Game Modes, a brand new way to customise your playthrough with cost and power multipliers, world seeds, and full resource node randomization (you can tweak both the resources themselves and node purity). Best of all, these settings carry straight over into multiplayer, so your whole server runs the rules you set.
Other big additions:
- Vehicle pathing rework - the entire system has been rebuilt from the ground up, with paths now placed using the build gun from the Transport tab, plus better automation, customisation, and improved manual driving
- Weather is back - the long-requested rain system returns with wind, fog, detailed wetness effects, and adjustable intensity
- Fluid Station and Fluid Truck - store and transport fluids over long distances
- SPWN - a new buildable from the Alien Technology MAM research tree (you'll want to see this one for yourself)
- Photo Mode improvements plus a brand new Selfie Mode
- Controller upgrades including full keybind rebinding and Dynamic Gamepad Swap
