At midnight on the night of a blood moon, all the creatures of the world come back to life. (This can be tweaked or completely disabled in the settings.)

✨ Effects

Ash and embers mark the night of a blood moon, increasing in intensity as midnight draws closer. (This can be disabled in the settings.)

Multiplayer sessions are supported.

How to Install Blood Moon on Your Server

1

Order Satisfactory Server

Order a Satisfactory server with at least 4 GB RAM (6 GB recommended). For multiplayer: per 4 players.

Frequently Asked Questions

Blood Moon not working after update – what to do?

After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Blood Moon has been updated for the new game version. With Mado Hosting: open the mod manager and click "Update All". If the mod hasn't been updated yet, temporarily remove it so the server starts.

Blood Moon causing crashes in multiplayer – solution

Most common cause: all players must have exactly the same mod version installed. Check server logs for "ModMismatch" or "Version Conflict". Ensure all players use Blood Moon v1.0.4 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.

Is Blood Moon compatible with other Satisfactory mods?

Blood Moon uses the Satisfactory Mod Loader (SML). Generally, SML-based mods are cross-compatible, but mods modifying the same game systems can cause conflicts. Test new mod combinations on a backup save. The Mado dashboard automatically detects known conflicts and warns you.
