Oh, I never thought about that. That means it keeps producing, while I'm away if I host the server version myself?
Yes exactly. However, until you get coal power going, the factory runs on biofuel which you have to keep getting yourself or else it shuts down after a couple hours. Which is why I say mid to late game fits this best.
Once you do, then you can produce an unlimited amount of stuff as long as you have somewhere to store it (unlike Factorio that has limited resources) and use it to build whatever you think you need. The milestones get progressively more complex :/ but you have the leisure to complete it at whatever pace you like :)
Satisfactory is so good. One of my all-time favorites. I use a dedicated server when I play it, because I'll play from a few different computers when I do. But resources stop pumping out if nobody is connected to it. Maybe there's an option or a setting to keep things rolling, but that's the default behavior -- nobody connected the game effectively pauses.
