+## Introduction
+
+This tutorial will show you how to create a Factorio server on your VPS or dedicated server.
+
+This tutorial was tested on **Ubuntu 24.04.**
+
+**Prerequisites**
+
+* **One local device** with [Factorio](https://www.factorio.com/) installed on it → so you can connect to the game server.
+* **One server** with Ubuntu → to host the game server.
+  * You will need access to a root account or a user with sudo permissions.
+  * This server has to be **x86-64**.
+
+**Example terminology**
+
+* `203.0.113.1` - Example public IP of the remote server
+* `faserver` - Example user on the remote server
+
+## Step 1 - Setting up the server
+
+In this section, we will set up a new non-root user with sudo permissions that we can use to run the server. We will also download the server and create a first save!
+
+### Step 1.1 - Adding new non-root user
+
+It's usually best to avoid using the root user. As root users can do anything they want on the server, there's a risk of accidental or unintentional changes being made. One way to reduce this risk is to create a new user with sudo privileges. So let's create the new user.
+
+```bash
+adduser faserver
+```
+
+Now you will be asked for a password. Make sure to set a secure one!
+
+You don't need to set the personal details. Just press enter to leave default values.
+Press enter to confirm the details.
+
+```bash
+Is the information correct? [Y/n] Y
+```
+
+Next, add the new user to the sudo group:
+
+```bash
+usermod -aG sudo faserver
+```
+
+We will need to log in as our new user:
+
+```bash
+su - faserver
+```
+
+### Step 1.2 - Enabling port 34197
+
+If you've got a firewall on your VPS, you'll need to make sure it allows port 34197 UDP so you can connect to it from the internet.
+
+There are a few firewalls you can use, but we'll just cover these two:
+
+<details>
+  
+<summary>UFW → Default firewall on Ubuntu</summary>
+
+First things first, let's check if our firewall is enabled.
+
+```bash
+sudo ufw status
+```
+
+If you see `Status: active` then your firewall is up and running. Now we can add our new rule:
+
+```bash
+sudo ufw allow 34197/udp
+```
+
+Now we can check if our rules are as they should be
+
+```bash
+sudo ufw status
+```
+
+and you should see something like this
+
+```bash
+faserver@ubuntu:~# sudo ufw status
+Status: active
+
+To                         Action      From
+--                         ------      ----
+OpenSSH                    ALLOW       Anywhere
+34197/udp                  ALLOW       Anywhere
+OpenSSH (v6)               ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
+34197/udp (v6)             ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
+```
+
+The resulting output may vary slightly depending on the rules that were applied prior to this step.
+
+</details>
+  
+<details>
+
+<summary>Hetzner Cloud Firewall</summary>
+
+This only applies if you're using a [Hetzner Cloud](https://console.hetzner.cloud/projects) server and have Hetzner Cloud Firewall enabled. To edit your firewall rules, just go to Cloud Console and select your project. When you're in your project, select "Firewall" from the sidebar. Then select the firewall from the list that is applied to your server. Add the following "inbound" rule:
+
+| IPs              | Protocol | Port  | Port range    |
+| -----------------| -------- | ----- | ------------- |
+| `Any IPv4` `Any IPv6` | UDP | 34197 | *Leave empty* |
+</details>
+
+### Step 1.3 - Downloading Factorio server
+
+Now we can download the latest version of the game
+
+```bash
+wget https://factorio.com/get-download/stable/headless/linux64 -O factorio-server.tar.xz
+```
+
+> **NOTE:** If you want an older version, just add the version of the game. For example if you want version **1.1.109**, the link will look like this `https://factorio.com/get-download/1.1.109/headless/linux64`. You can find a full list of all versions here: [factorio.com/download/archive](https://factorio.com/download/archive/)
+
+We will need to extract the `tar.xz` file. To extract it, run this command:
+
+```bash
+tar -xf factorio-server.tar.xz
+```
+
+This will create a new directory called "factorio", so we will go into it:
+
+```bash
+cd factorio
+```
+
+### Step 1.4 - Creating a save
+
+The Factorio server won't start without a save. You can create one using this command:
+
+```bash
+mkdir saves && ./bin/x64/factorio --create ./saves/my-save.zip 
+```
+
+This command will create a map using the default settings. You can replace `my-save` with a name of your choice.
+
+### Step 1.5 - Starting the server
+
+Now we can start the server:
+
+```bash
+./bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest
+```
+
+This command will use tha latest save that is in the "saves" directory.
+
+You can use `/players` to test if the game server is working:
+
+```bash
+2.439 Info ServerMultiplayerManager.cpp:806: updateTick(0) changing state from(CreatingGame) to(InGame)
+/players
+Players (0):
+```
+
+On your local device, you can now open the Factorio launcher, select "Multiplayer", click the "connect to an address" option, and enter your IP address and the default port, e.g. `203.0.113.1:34197`.
+
+On your server, you can run `/quit` to stop the game.
+
+## Step 2 - Making the server run non-stop
+
+For this, we will use `systemd`.
+
+1. Create a new file called `factorio-server.service` in `/etc/systemd/system` and edit it.
+   ```bash
+   sudo touch /etc/systemd/system/factorio-server.service && sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+2. Here are the required contents of the `factorio-server.service` file:
+   ```toml
+   [Unit]
+   Description=Factorio Headless Server
+   
+   [Service]
+   Type=simpleP
+   User=faserver
+   WorkingDirectory=/home/faserver/factorio
+   ExecStart=/home/faserver/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest
+   
+   [Install]
+   WantedBy=multi-user.target
+   ```
+
+3. Make it so the server starts on server boot
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl enable factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+4. Start the server
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl start factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+Run `ss -ul` to check if the game is running on port 34197.
+
+On your local device, you can now open the Factorio launcher and connect to the game as explained before.
+
+## Step 3 - Customization
+
+### Step 3.1 - Changing the port
+
+1. Open the `factorio-server.service` file:
+   ```bash
+   sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+2. Change the 8th line:
+   ```bash
+   # Before
+   ExecStart=/home/faserver/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest
+   
+   # After
+   ExecStart=/home/faserver/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest --port <your-port>
+   ```
+   
+   Replace the port with your desired port (it should have 4 or 5 digits).
+   
+   > **NOTE:** If you password protected your game, don't forget to add `--password <your-password>` to the end of the replaced line! Also don't forget to update your firewall settings! Refer to [Step 1.3](#step-13---enabling-port-34197) if you have UFW or Hetzner Cloud Firewall.
+
+3. Restart the game server:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+   sudo systemctl restart factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+Run `ss -ul` to check if the game is running on your preferred port.
+
+On your local device, you can now open the Factorio launcher, select "Multiplayer", click the "connect to an address" option, and enter your IP address and the custom port, e.g. `203.0.113.1:<your-port>`.
+
+### Step 3.2 - Giving yourself admin permissions
+
+1. Stop the game server:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl stop factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+2. Start the game server manually:
+   ```bash
+   cd factorio/ && ./bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest
+   ```
+   
+   > **NOTE:** If you set custom port don't forget to add `--port <your-port>` at the end of the command
+
+3. Join the game server and run:
+   ```bash
+   /promote <your-username>
+   ```
+
+4. Stop the game server using `CTRL`+`C` and restart the game server via `systemctl`:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl start factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+### Step 3.3 - Protecting your game
+
+You can protect your game using a password or a whitelist. We will only focus on password protection here.
+
+1. Open `factorio-server.service` file:
+   ```bash
+   sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+2. Change the 8th line:
+   ```bash
+   # Before:
+   ExecStart=/home/faserver/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest
+   
+   # After:
+   ExecStart=/home/faserver/factorio/bin/x64/factorio --start-server-load-latest --password <your-password>
+   ```
+   
+   > **NOTE:** If you set a custom port, don't forget to add `--port <your-port>` to the end of the replaced line!
+
+3. Restart the server:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+   sudo systemctl restart factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+## Step 4 - Updating the Factorio version
+
+1. Download the latest version of Factorio:
+   ```bash
+   wget https://factorio.com/get-download/stable/headless/linux64 -O factorio-server.tar.xz
+   ```
+
+2. Extract the latest version of Factorio:
+   ```bash
+   tar -xf factorio-server.tar.xz
+   ```
+
+3. And restart the server:
+   ```bash
+   sudo systemctl restart factorio-server.service
+   ```
+
+## Conclusion
+
+You should now have a Factorio game server up and running. For more custom settings, edit `factorio/config/config.ini`. To enable a setting, remove the `;` symbol at the beginning of the corresponding line. To apply the changes, restart the game server with systemctl.
