Save files are files that contain the .sav file extension.

Save file location

Both Steam and Epic Games use the same path:

  • Windows
    • %LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\{YOUR ID}
    • C:\Users\<your Windows username>\AppData\Local\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\{YOUR ID}
      • If you cannot find your Steam save folder (such as due to purchasing the game on Steam after previously owning on Epic), first start a new game with Steam, then save the new game. You should now be able to see your Steam save folder beside epic. The Steam ID is usually shorter than the Epic ID. The folder location is stated above.
  • Linux
    • Using Steam Play (one of these locations):
      • ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/{YOUR STEAM ID}
      • ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/{YOUR STEAM ID}
    • Steam: ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/{YOUR STEAM ID}
    • Steam (installation on another drive than your home dir): {YOUR DRIVE}/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/{YOUR STEAM ID}
  • Unraid, docker
    • ich777/steamcmd:satisfactory: /mnt/user/appdata/satisfactory/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/{YOUR ID}

Automatic backup

When a save file is saved by overwriting another, the game creates a backup of the previous save file. This doesn't happen when an autosave occurs, unless you manually overwrite it.

Both Steam and Epic Games use the same path:

  • Windows
    • %LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\SaveGames_backup
    • C:\Users\<your Windows username>\AppData\Local\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\SaveGames_backup
      • If you cannot find your steam save folder (probably because you have owned the game in Epic and just bought the Steam copy recently), first start a new game with Steam, then save the new game. You should now be able to see your steam save folder beside epic. The steam ID is usually shorter than the Epic ID. The folder location is stated above.
  • Linux
    • Using Steam Play: ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Local Settings/Application Data/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/SaveGames_backup
    • Steam: ~/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/SaveGames_backup
    • Steam (installation on another drive than your home dir): {YOUR DRIVE}/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/526870/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/SaveGames_backup
  • Unraid, docker
    • ich777/steamcmd:satisfactory: /mnt/user/appdata/satisfactory/.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames_backup

Save editing

Save files can be edited using online tools such as Satisfactory Interactive Map. See here.

Cloud sync

Example of a sync conflict dialog on Steam

If playing on Epic Games or Steam and Cloud Sync is enabled, a notification may sometimes appear when the player:

  • Switches the game version between experimental and stable
  • Copies over the save game across different platforms
  • Continues a game at different machine

And you will be prompted to either upload your save file to the cloud or download the save file from the cloud to your PC.

Unless you are playing across multiple PC, always choose upload your save file to the cloud to avoid losing your progress. And always back up your saves!


Save file format

A save file has a header and a body. The body of the file is compressed in chunks.

As of Patch 1.0.0.3 (Build 368883, released on September 25, 2024), the produced save file header has version 13, the save version is 46 and the editor object version is 40. For these versions, this format description should be correct, but may not be complete: It is possible that not all potential structures were present in the analyzed save files.

Basic data types

There are nine basic types that are used to compose more elaborated structures in the save files:

Byte

A single 8-bit byte that represents a signed integer between -128 and 127.

Int

Four consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent a signed integer between -2,147,483,648 and 2,147,483,647.

Uint32

Four consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent an unsigned integer between 0 and 4,294,967,295.

Long

Eight consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent a signed integer between -9,223,372,036,854,775,808 and 9,223,372,036,854,775,807.

Uint64

Eight consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent an unsigned integer between 0 and 18,446,744,073,709,551,615.

Float

Four consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent a signed floating-point number with single precision, according to the binary32 format of IEEE 754.

Double

Eight consecutive bytes in little-endian order that represent a signed floating-point number with double precision, according to the binary64 format of IEEE 754.

String

A variable-length byte sequence of UTF-encoded characters, null-terminated:

number of bytes description example notes
4 string length in characters, including null-termination bytes 22 as an Int, see above
variable the encoded characters "Hello Massage-2(A-B)b" without the quotation marks
1 or 2 null-termination N/A one byte if UTF-8, two bytes if UTF-16

A length of zero represents the empty string and occupies just these four bytes. A positive length means that the characters are encoded in UTF-8. A negative length means that the characters are encoded in UTF-16 little-endian, without a byte-order mark. In this case, the given negative length has to be multiplied by minus two to get the number of bytes the rest of the string occupies (including the two bytes for null-termination).

Composite data types

Using the basic data types defined above, a save file has two top-level structures: a SaveFileHeader and a SaveFileBody. These are composed of different intermediate data types themselves.

These composite data types are documented below. A data type is a list of ordered fields, each field is a row in the table of the data type. So, for example: The SaveFileHeader begins with an Int (four bytes) that represents the save header version. This is followed by another Int (the next four bytes) that represents the save version and so on.

SaveFileHeader

CompressedSaveFileBody

Directly after the save file header, the save file body begins with a list of zlib-compressed chunks. Each compressed chunk has this format:

basic data type description example notes

Properties

Properties contain very different types of information. Every property has a name, which has the basic data type String.

PropertyList

Zero, one or multiple properties concatenated form a PropertyList. The special property named "None" marks the end of a PropertyList. All other properties in a PropertyList also have a type, which has the basic data type String. After the "name" and the "type" strings, the type-specific part begins. For these, see the following "...Property" descriptions.

Trailing Bytes

Trailing bytes can be present after an ActorObject or ComponentObject. The format of the trailing bytes is specific to the game object.

Note: Saves created by Satisfactory Calculator's Interactive Map have trailing bytes for additional objects not shown in this table. This table includes only those objects given trailing bytes by Satifactory game itself. The additional SCIM bytes are always a single zero Uint32.

Dedicated Server Settings File


This file is also an Unreal Engine save file.
Using the ingame Server Manager UI is currently the only supported method for modifying this file.
Settings may also be changed through the HTTPS API.

ServerSettings.PORT.sav
Property Description
ServerName Just a friendly name for this server. Can be used in UI dialogs to identify the server
AutoLoadSessionName If set, the most recent save from this session will be automatically loaded on server startup
AdminPassword Admin password set on the server. Used to access administration based functions of the Server API
ClientPassword Client password set on the server. Required to join the game in the first place.
ServerSecret Server secret encoded as hex nibble string. Used to hash the data used for the tokens and generate the fingerprint
CertificateData Generated certificate data that should be re-used across server restarts

Trivia

  • Creative Mode can be enabled by editing a save file, with third-party tools providing a GUI interface for doing so. Much like the 4-player limit for multiplayer, that there is no interface to change this option within the Satisfactory client indicates that this feature is unsupported.
