[Multi, 0.12.29] Dedicated server issues

Hello all, I'm very glad I bought this time travel machine, my days off work don't even seem to exist anymore! lol.

Down to business, I own a dedicated server box that I use remote desktop to connect to, it was built to host ArmA 3 servers so it's easily capable of handling Factorio, and it has an absolutely smashing internet connection (That's from New York to Dubai!). I live in the UK so it's so much better than what you saw in that pic. But my main gripe is that whenever I go to download the map, which is quite sizeable now, it's only downloading at about 200kb/s ? My download speed is ~1.5MB/s and the server's upload speed is ludicrous, so what's happening here?

Just so you know, I'm using a .BAT file to launch the server in headless client mode, and I am using mods, though the upload/download speed was the same as vanilla. this is the .BAT's script:

Code: Select all

Factorio.exe --start-server "_autosave2".zip
Obviously I just googled how to set up a dedi server, any tips on how to make my experience better overall? Thanks in advance.

Bump, this is quite an annoying issue that's only going to get on as my game progresses. Can anyone help? Thanks.

This is a known issue we're currently working on fixing. At the moment, there probably isn't much you can do except to wait for us to fix it.
