Importing an Existing World

Importing a world allows you to play on an existing save. Using SFTP, you can upload your singleplayer world.

Archive your current world

1. Stop your server.

2. Backup your world by compressing it or downloading it.

   • You'll want to backup the default.vcdbs file in the data/Saves folder before making any changes to avoid data loss.

3. Upload the vcdbs from your computer.

   • You can find your world on your computer by clicking "Open Saves Folder" from the single player menu. Upload the save file to the data/Saves folder.

   • If you upload the file under a name that isn't default.vcdbs, you will need to navigate to the data/serverconfig.json file and replace:

     "SaveFileLocation": "./data/Saves/default.vcdbs",

     with:

     "SaveFileLocation": "./data/Saves/[your file].vcdbs",

     Replace [your file] with the name of the uploaded file.

   • To avoid needing to edit the server config, we recommend uploading it under default.vcdbs.

4. Start your server.
