Hi Pioneers! Hello again everyone, Here is another patch for Experimental, today we have a much bigger change that improves our Foliage, Lightweight, Recipe and Schematics systems to overcome multiple networking bottlenecks that weve had in the past While playing in Multiplayer and Dedicated Servers, you could end up in situations where after removing large amounts of foliage, foliage might stop replicating completely, resulting in foliage being non-interactable or not properly disappearing, the same could happen to buildables like Foundations and Walls among others after building many of them. Weve made improvements that should result in less strain on Unreal Engines replication system leading to an improved multiplayer experience, they should also alleviate the Reliable Buffer Overflow issues on joining a session, as well as addressing additional side issues like interacting with the Advanced Game Settings menu during multiplayer kicking you out of a session With this, there should be a significant improvement in how fast foliage and buildables are loaded, compared to joining a save and seeing buildables and foliage pop in and out of existence or have them be uninteractable Since changes in Experimental might have some unexpected side effects, please BACKUP YOUR SAVES before trying it out You can find your saves in: %LocalAppData%/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/ There should be a folder with a lot of numbers, that is your Steam/Epic ID and that folder will contain your saves, you can copy this folder somewhere else If you would like to know more about this change and the previous changes added to experimental you should watch our video on them by our community manager Mikael https://youtu.be/Z3UtGdftZbc If you would like to quickly access the Experimental version, first BACKUP YOUR SAVES and then: For Steam: Then right click the Game on Steam > Properties > Betas > Beta Participation > Select Experimental For Epic: Look in your game library for Satisfactory Experimental from there you can install it And dont forget to BACKUP YOUR SAVES before you start playing Were very curious to hear about your experience with this latest patch so please let us know over at our QA Site if you encounter any new issues https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ We appreciate all of your feedback And remember, If the Experimental release turns out to be too unstable for you, you can always switch back to the default version of the game and restore your save game and continue enjoying Satisfactory as usual See you all again soon <3 OPTIMIZATION

• Bulk data replication
  • Improves the Foliage, Lightweight, Recipe and Schematic systems in Multiplayer and Dedicated Servers

DEDICATED SERVER

• Bulk data replication
  • This change requires you to open your current TCP Port (7777 by default) on top of the already open UDP port, you also need to port forward the same port as the game port (7777 UDP by default) +20000 TCP (27777 TCP by default)
  • Please note that the game port values should not be set to a value larger than 45535 since we do not have good enough error handling for this at the moment but will be addresed in the future as we are still fleshing the port selection aspect out
