Force your friends to make commits to a github repo and publish your factory with terraform.

Spin up a docker instance https://github.com/factoriotools/factorio-docker, forward the router ports & slap a quick password on the factorio server.

I was working with this repo, which seems to be the most popular solution. The issue I can't resolve is that Docker would complain that it was unable to create the require directories as it doesn't have permission. I tried to troubleshoot myself but was unable to do so (I'm not very familiar with Docker unfortunately). I'm working with a Mac and have the most recent version of Docker installed.

My buddy and I have been playing normal multiplayer and I just got all the hardware I need to start a server and was looking at doing it through docker with factoriotools. I didn't see anything about being able to import an old save and I don't want to start over since we were really close to the rocket. Does anybody know if you can import a save? Thanks in advance!

Run it in a container: https://github.com/factoriotools/factorio-docker

Hello, I have been trying to use docker on windows to run a factorio server. (docker image)

may help this

I saw there was another repository, https://github.com/factoriotools/factorio-docker-watchdog . I'm not quite sure what it does, but is it something I could use to automatically do this whenever there's an update?
