Space Age is handled through Factorio's built-in mod setup. On current Space Age-capable server installs, creating a new map normally creates a save using the installed/default Factorio setup.

Running Space Age

  1. Open your Factorio server in the control panel and stop the server.
  2. Click Create Map to create a new save file.

    Create Map button for a Factorio server in TCAdmin

  3. Start the server once the map has been created.

If you already made a Space Age save on your PC, upload that save instead: Uploading Save Game Files to Your Factorio Server.

If the server starts as vanilla

Check mods/mod-list.json and make sure the Space Age-related built-in mods are enabled:

{
  "mods": [
    { "name": "base", "enabled": true },
    { "name": "elevated-rails", "enabled": true },
    { "name": "quality", "enabled": true },
    { "name": "space-age", "enabled": true }
  ]
}

Save the file, then create a new map or upload a Space Age save before starting the server.
