StarRupture: how much memory does my server need?

Which RAM tier suits your player count and factory size – and how to switch later.

1 minute read Updated 09.11.2026

StarRupture is a factory-building game: the bigger your production chains get, the more memory the server needs.

Your groupRecommendation
Alone or as a pair, at the start4 GB
Small group, growing base6 GB (default)
Full group or large factories8 GB and more

These values are guidelines. You can see how much your server actually uses in the client area under usage. The portal lets you know if your server permanently needs more or less.

Switch later

You can change the RAM tier at any time in the client area. Your save is kept; the server only restarts once.

Signs of too little memory

  • The server crashes when many machines run at the same time.
  • Players get disconnected in large bases.
  • Memory errors appear in the console.
