Foundry 24/7: keeping the factory online without your PC

In Foundry, a factory never truly sleeps: it waits for the community to come back and push the next assembly line. But the server itself still has to stay standing around the clock, including when no one is connected and you've shut down your computer. That's the whole point of permanent hosting, and it's where the living-room PC shows its limits.

  • It has to be left on without interruption: the second you turn it off, the world becomes unreachable.
  • Bill and wear: a tower running night and day consumes power and ages prematurely.
  • No Anti-DDoS shield: your personal IP stays exposed at all times.
  • Repeated outages: an internet drop, a forced Windows update, a restart… so many hard disconnects for your players.

The dedicated host, an infrastructure built for uptime

Entrusting Foundry to a host means moving the server onto an infrastructure designed never to stop. You no longer depend on your machine or your router. Concretely:

  • A server online continuously, fully decoupled from your PC.
  • An included Anti-DDoS, active at all times.
  • Automatic world backups, a safety net against lost progress.
  • A Ryzen 9 7950X3D high-clock CPU, perfect for handling the factory simulation.
A factory that shuts off every night is a community that drifts apart. True 24/7 begins where your personal machine stops being indispensable.
