This guide will show you how to install a custom map to your Factorio server.
NOTE: It is recommended that you stop your server before making any changes to it.
Installing custom maps
If you've created a map through the game, you can find this by navigating to the directory that you installed Factorio in on your computer, e.g. C:\Factorio. In this directory you'll find a folder called "saves", inside of this "saves" folder you'll find the map as a zip archive, called whatever name you gave it, e.g. yourmap.zip. This is the file that you would want to upload to your server.
After you've created or found a map you want to install to your server, you'll want to navigate to the "File Manager" in your control panel.
Once there, you'll want to open the "saves" folder.
Once it has finished uploading, navigate to the "Commandline Manager" in your control panel.
Press "Selected" next to your command line.
And that's it, you've now installed a custom map to your Factorio server! The next time you start your server it should now be running this map.
