Containerized: Factorio

The easiest way to run factorio in a container.

Getting Started

Versioning

  • stable: Latest stable version
  • experimental: Latest experimental version
  • 2.x.x: Specific game version from 2.0.76 onwards

This project runs automatic hourly updates.

Run container

podman run forgejo.fpallas.dev/containerized/factorio:stable \
    -d \
    -v "./data/saves:/opt/factorio/saves" \
    -v "./data/config:/opt/factorio/config" \
    -p "34197:34197/udp"

Compose container

services:
  factorio:
    image: forgejo.fpallas.dev/containerized/factorio:stable
    volumes:
      - ./data/saves:/opt/factorio/saves
      - ./data/config:/opt/factorio/config
    ports:
      - "34197:34197/udp"

Configuration

Please refer to the official factorio wiki and example configs to configure the server.

Place your configurations in a directory and mount it under /opt/factorio/config.

Savegames

When no save is provided, the server will automatically generate a map with default settings at first startup.

The server places all savegames, including autosaves under /opt/factorio/saves.

Uploading a save

The server always loads the _autosave1.zip at startup. To start with your own save, or replace the existing save, simply rename your save to _autosave1.zip and place it in the mounted save folder.

Advanced Usage

The focus of containerized is on simplicity. This allows us to keep images close to the original application. For more advanced use-cases refer to other containers instead.
