Modding a Satisfactory server is fully supported and seamlessly handled by the Satisfactory Mod Manager. Instead of relying on manual file transfers, server owners can link their servers directly within the manager's interface. Once connected, the application allows players to browse, download, and automatically install mods straight to the server. It also utilizes a built-in compatibility filter, ensuring only compatible mods are displayed. Joining players must also run the Mod Manager locally with a matching mod list to successfully connect.
Requirement: Mod versions must match on both the client and the server.
