How to use multicore running factorio on linux server

I found that the factorio running on a linux server will only work under a single core.
What method should I use to make it work properly under multiple cores?
The version I am using is Factorio 0.16.51 (build 36654, linux64, headless)
I tried to start with the --threads parameter, but it is invalid

The game is mostly single core. There are ea few things that are multithreaded - especially on linux, but most of it is single core.

You can try
https://mods.factorio.com/mod/clusterio but that is not exactly what you need.

Thank you for your reply, will you consider multi-core optimization later?

Yes, the processor core frequency of the server is not as high as the desktop processor core frequency. I hope that subsequent updates can optimize these problems. I want to play with many friends, but the late game is very stuck, which affects the game experience.

Clusterio is to have parts of your world on different servers. You process copper on one and iron on another. Doesn't have anything to do with server CPUs.
