Description

![Welcome to PEP Mod](https://github.com/maker-dude/PEP_Mod/blob/main/Mods/PEP_Mod/Resources/Media/initial_platform.png?raw=true)

Welcome Pioneer, to the Platform Expansion Program.

NOTE You must choose to skip the onboarding step when starting a new world with PEP.

The Platform Expansion Program replaces natural resource deposits and exploration with a tightly focused, efficiency-driven challenge. Instead of roaming for nodes, you’ll build and place deployable resource nodes, expanding your platform piece by piece to maximize output under extreme resource constraints.


Your goal:
Expand, optimize, and push your factory to the limits while balancing limited space and escalating demands. Every milestone unlocks new technologies to grow your platform and automate production, culminating in a fully self-sustaining factory suspended in the sky.

Why PEP?

PEP challenges you to rethink everything you know about Satisfactory. With no sprawling landscapes or creatures to explore, every decision happens on your platform. It’s factory building distilled to its purest form.

Order Satisfactory Server

Frequently Asked Questions

Platform Expansion Program not working after update – what to do?

After a Satisfactory update, mods need to be updated. Check ficsit.app whether Platform Expansion Program 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.

Platform Expansion Program 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 Platform Expansion Program v1.0.16 and the same SML. With Mado Hosting, Satisfactory servers run with 6 GB RAM for stable multiplayer performance.

Is Platform Expansion Program compatible with other Satisfactory mods?

Platform Expansion Program 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.
