How to Quickly Find and Join your Factorio Server
This article will show you how you can easily find and join your Factorio server hosted with us here at Crystallized Hosting.
To get started, input your Factorio login credentials or API Key in the "Game Settings" section, under the "Auth Token" tab of your Panel. We have a guide about how to find your login credentials or key here: Factorio API Key Guide.
After providing your credentials, make sure your server is turned on using the Start button in the upper left hand side of your Panel.
Method 1: Direct Connect
On your Game Control Panel, locate the Dedicated IP Address on the left of your console page.
In your Factorio Client, select "Multiplayer", and then "Connect to address". Enter in your IP address and click the "Connect" button.
Method 2: Server Listings
You can also join your server through the in-game Server Listings, though it does require a little bit of initial setup.
Server settings
On your "Startup" page on the top of your Panel, give your server a name in the "Server Name" text field. You can also give your server a Description as well as a password if you wish. Make sure to Restart your server to have these changes apply.
Server listing
Now it'll be really easy to find your server in the "Multiplayer - Browse public games" section of the Factorio client!
