Introducing Nodecraft Lite - Budget Server Hosting
Our new product, Nodecraft Lite, offers the same high-quality server hosting experience at lower costs.
Unlike Nodecraft Pro game servers that run 24/7, Nodecraft Lite Servers are only online when players actively use them.
Server owners are given a password-protected Wake & Play Share Link to share with anyone to wake the server from hibernation.
For a full list of feature differences between our Pro and Lite packages, check out the chart above labeled "Budget or Premium?".

SAVE & SWAP TO ANY OTHER GAME, FOR NO ADDITIONAL COST.Low Latency (No Lag) Servers with DDoS Protection
We're gamers too, and we know that nothing is more frustrating than lag and crashes.
Unlike other Factorio server hosting providers, we make sure not to overburden our servers— this means we average only 12 customers per device. This allows your instance to access more CPU cores, disk IOs, and RAM. More power per user means you will have protection against the common headaches of lag and crashes.
- 3.8+ GHz Processor (CPU)
Our servers primarily use an Intel® Xeon® E-2174G or equivalent.
- 64GB ECC RAM
Error correcting and highly clocked, this RAM is deployed for high speed performance and stability.
- Enterprise Grade Solid State Drives (SSD)
We use Enterprise SSDs to power all customer game servers.
- Enterprise Grade Hard Disk
We host our game servers on the SSD, but backups, the OS, and other files not required by your game server are run on standard disks.
- DDoS Protection and High Performance Network
DDoS attacks are a constant threat to game servers. Our network is built for network attack resilience.
- Linux OS
We've built our entire infrastructure on top of a Linux ecosystem to focus on performance, security, and stability.

Factorio
Factorio's development began in 2012 and it has sold over a million copies. It's a game designed to build and maintain huge factories—either on your own or with your friends.
In Factorio, you mine resources, research technologies, construct infrastructure, manage your production, and combat enemies. In the beginning you will be gathering resources and crafting by hand, but as you progress your factories will be filled with solar powered robots.
The game's unique multiplayer lets you and your friends collaborate on building your factory and delegating tasks. Factorio also supports an in-game map editor that allows you to customize entities, enemies, and terrain—even create custom scripts!

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?
You can automatically upgrade or downgrade your Nodecraft Pro Server plan at any time via the billing dashboard, which you will have access to as soon as you log in.
While in Open Beta, if you want to change between Nodecraft Pro and Nodecraft Lite, you will have to cancel your current subscription and create a subscription with the other product.
You can learn more about the process in this article. -

Understanding the billing for your game server subscription is important to every server owner. Nodecraft offers a transparent and simple subscription service that ensures you always know when payments are coming and offers full control so there are no surprises.
Every game server subscription is billed with:

Our data centers have both external and internal packet scrubbing to protect against large-scale attacks against each server.

Do you provide dedicated IPs?
Nodecraft offers two products: Nodecraft Pro and Nodecraft Lite. Nodecraft Pro servers are issued a dedicated IP address that will only be used by one customer at a time and will only change if the server is archived, the service is ended, or in the rare case that a server requires changing nodes.
We also provide a DNS Hostname for all server subscriptions in Nodecraft Pro and Nodecraft Lite, which can be used interchangeably in most games.All servers are provisioned with an IP, separate from any other game server and are never actively shared between customers.
-
What is an instance?
Nodecraft allows users to save and swap between games and modpacks by utilizing the server instances available to each plan. These instances can be thought of like save slots that are able to hold a game server's files in a saved state for you to pop back into your server to play later.
Learn more about Instances and how to use them.

How many player slots does my server have?
Nodecraft does not limit player slots on your server, so you can have as many player slots as the game allows!

Our entire team understands the anxiety around canceling your online subscriptions. Your game server subscriptions can be canceled instantly and at any time by following the instructions below:
