Factorio is mostly limited by memory latency and bandwidth, both of what are abysmally bad in ARMs. It's not only that ARMs have lower CPU frequency and lower instructions-per-cycle, their memory system is also designed for vastly different usecase compared to "proper" CPUs. In other word...

It can run a full instance of Minecraft, very poorly with view distance turned way down. And ARM GHz is not directly comparable to amd64 GHz for a bunch of reasons. my point with no dedicated GPU it can still run it, even as poor as it may be there is still enough humph behind it to run. And im not...

Look, you can't run Factorio on ARM. ARM chips simply aren't powerful enough. Nothing you can do will change this. it can run a full instance of Minecraft... pretty sure it can handle a small factorio server. Considering their required specs (taken from a quick google search) 1.5GHz Dual core and f...

You are not counting one thing. Even if you would have ARM build it wouldn't be able to handle big factory. Due to how game works server runs it's own simulation - that kind of small server wouldn't have that much of computing power I guess. So after a lot of work to port server to ARM you'd get on...

option D, purchase an old refurb business class pc to use as a server. should not cost more than $100. $100 might not be much but then add the noise (it is in my bedroom where i have to sleep) and the power usage which is like what 400w. To give a quick and dirty calculation, a 400w pc running at a...

So i know there are probably hundreds of posts about this already. I have been searching for days for any signs of an ARM capable server with no luck, not even unofficial server builds. Firstly i know Factorio can be resource intensive at times, and i know its single core only (currently) Im not ask...
