If this explodes in a firey mess and eats your dog, I apologise but i accept no liability. You can probably make it better - hell I'll probably do it. In fact it took me twice as long as all of that to write this post. I spent about an hour scripting the update stuff and its not code i'm particularly proud of. I built this VM in about 15 minutes one day when the local server multiplayer started running like shit. If it gets crypto'd, hacked, or whatever its not my fault. This is not a hardened install of Windows 7. This is not a particularly well scripted VM. If in doubt give it more ram and place the VM on an SSD. * I built this on my 5930K X99-A PCIE M2 SSD system. So long as everyone is under 120ms to eachother, with a *stable* ping and ADSL2 upload, you should be fine. The more players you have, the more upstream *ALL* players need (not just the host). That said, I've played with 5 players (2 lan, 1 in Sydney, 1 in Melbourne) for 20-30 hours at a time just fine. It sucks, but if you have friends with shitty internet, I wouldn't invite them to your games. If *any* player connected lags, you all lag. * Factorio is *really* sensitive netcode wise. * Some form of Hypervisor - Hyper-V, VMWare Player/Workstation, Virtual Box - basically anything that will run Windows 7 * you are comfortable with the command line - If you can't change directories, you're going to have a bad time. * you can follow instructions - i'm not supporting this if you can't get it to work. * you have a spare Windows 7 license to use for the virtual machine * you have the Steam version of the game for Windows How to build a Factorio Dedicated Windows 7 Virtual Machine
