Zero-config setupFrequently asked questions
How much RAM does an Abiotic Factor server need with you?
The game is light on resources: 4 GB comfortably covers your full six-player group. If you want extra headroom for long sessions, 8 GB gives you that buffer.
How many people can be on the server at once?
Six slots are the default (NUM_PLAYERS variable), matching how the game is designed as a small co-op crew. More slots are not intended by the game itself.
How do I set a password for our session?
The password lives in the SERVER_PASSWORD variable in the control panel and starts pre-set. Swap it for your own anytime — leaving it blank is not possible, a password is always active.
Do I need to set up Wine myself for this to run?
No, Abiotic Factor runs on Proton with us, which brings the necessary Windows compatibility layer along automatically. There is no manual Wine configuration involved.
How quickly can we start playing after ordering?
The SteamCMD download usually takes 10 to 20 minutes. After that, set the server name, password, and player count in the panel and your crew can join.
Can I back up our save and move it to another server later?
Yes, your progress lives in save files you can download via the file manager in the dashboard and upload again on another server. Characters, achievements, and research progress all carry over.
Do I get a subdomain for my server?
Every mcfreehost server ships with its own address such as yourserver.mc.mcfreehost.com right from the start. Rename it anytime from the dashboard — no ticket required.
What do add-ons like bots and databases cost?
Monitoring and database add-ons — Uptime Kuma, MariaDB, phpMyAdmin, Game Server Watcher — never carry a surcharge. For music and chat bots, the first slot you activate is included; every additional bot is billed on top, and the dashboard shows the exact cost before you switch it on.
How long until I can actually play?
Typical initial setup: about 3 minutes. Queues or large installations can take longer. Larger Steam installs can take a bit longer depending on the game.
Am I locked into a long-term contract?
No — you are on a subscription that renews monthly, and you can cancel it from the dashboard whenever you like; the same goes for turning off automatic renewal.
Are the servers located in Germany?
Yes. All game servers run in German data centres (Falkenstein and Limburg) connected to the major German exchanges — low pings for players across Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and solid latency for the rest of Europe.
Which provider is best for my server?
The best provider is the one that shows you what you get before you pay: RAM, slots, location, price and cancellation terms. Here the price and resources are visible in the configurator before checkout, there is no minimum term and setup is automated — feel free to compare that with other offers.
Should I host the server myself or rent one?
Self-hosting costs power, time and a machine that runs around the clock; port forwarding, updates and backups are on you. A rented server is online within minutes, keeps running when your PC is off, and updates, DDoS protection and backups are included. For one or two friends on a single evening self-hosting is often fine — for a persistent world, renting pays off.
