is there PvP ?

[HunterAnubis]

As much as I love Co-op games I like grinding my friends face in dirt and sharp rocks more.
Is there any PvP mode where your basicly competing with your friend who gets teh thing build sooner ?
Ive noticed some automated guns and vehicles in the trailer so game has combat units

There is no PvP in this game, the reason for the automated guns are for defending your base against biters. The little buggers who wanna destroy your factory.

You can play Multiplayer games with or against your friends.

By assigning different factions via console commands you are enemies.

Dedicated servers are planned for 0.13.

I have a dedicated pvp server in the works. Depending how .13 goes will determine if I'll release it. The current peer to peer system will not work in a pvp environment. One guy with a bad internet connection or lag switch will instantly ruin the fun for all.

In that guide I see nothing about factions related console command.

With that said, it seems like the server lags when you hit space. Anyone else notice this? Makes it tough to rely on killing things. Is it because I set the latency to high? When I set it to 30, it lags other players. What should it be set to to support local US players?

[HunterAnubis]

Im really tempted to try this game to be honest. Thanks for the answer dev guy

[Draktok]

I hope he respond to me, i cannot find the command for pvp function :) I think he's a mod, btw, not a dev.

Doing this via a command can be a little difficult, especially if you haven't used the command console before. Luckily there is an easier way:

EasyPvP mod[forums.factorio.com]

Adds a UI that allows players to create forces (teams) in Factorio, and to switch between them whenever they want.
Each force has their own research progress and turrets will attack players from other forces. It is not possible to interact with buildings from an enemy force, except destroying them.

Yes, we are mods, not devs. All devs have a [Developer] next to their name.

Dedicated servers are planned for 0.13.

"Dedicated/Headless server
This article contains content on features that are included in 0.12.X, an "experimental release" of the game that is not considered as "stable release" by the developers yet.

As of Factorio version 0.12.0 onwards, a dedicated (or headless) server can be started using the '--start-server' command line option."

https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?title=Multiplayer#Dedicated.2FHeadless_server

by the way we have one. ^^

But the Servers have No Passwords or something...

Need to post a PvP map here to make this more viable!
