Summary
Satisfactory has received an experimental update to allow mods on dedicated servers. This feature is available on the stable branch, and more support will likely follow the Full Release. Players can use the official Satisfactory Mod Manager/Loader to browse and install mods that work on dedicated servers using an extremely user-friendly interface. The manager even has an included compatibility filter, meaning only mods working for dedicated servers will be shown.
