Switch Between Factorio Server Versions
Learn how to change your Factorio dedicated server to a specific version for save compatibility or testing purposes.
Changing your Factorio server version is handy if you want to upload an old save or need compatibility with specific mods. Newer Factorio versions may not be compatible with older saves due to recipe changes and other updates.
⚠️ Warning: We do not recommend using your current save or mods on an older version of Factorio. If you still want to try, manually download a backup of your save before proceeding.
⚠️ Warning: If you are going back to a version before 2.0, you will need to disable the Space Age mods in
/mods/mod-list.json. Change the following tofalse:elevated-rails,quality,space-age.
