How to Add a Savegame to Your Echoes of Elysium Server

The complete save of an Echoes of Elysium server lives in a single directory called world. That is where the server stores your world with everything you have built in it.

Upload the savegame

1. Create a backup
   Save the current state of your server before you overwrite anything: Create backup.

2. Stop the server
   Stop your server via the dashboard. While the server is running it writes to the world files itself and would overwrite your uploaded files.

3. Connect via SFTP
   Connect to your server via SFTP.

4. Open the directory
   Navigate to the following directory:

   /world/
   

5. Remove the old world data
   Delete the existing contents of the world directory. If old files are left behind, they can get mixed up with your uploaded save.

6. Upload the new world data
   Upload the contents of your save into the /world/ directory – that is, the files and subfolders themselves, not another world folder inside it.

7. Start the server
   Start your server. Your uploaded save is now loaded on startup.
