The savegame of a HumanitZ server is stored in a single file following the pattern Save_<name>.sav. Which name your server loads is defined by the SaveName value in the configuration file – so the file name and the configuration have to match.
Files of the savegame
| File | Content |
|---|---|
Save_<name>.sav |
The actual savegame with the world, bases, vehicles and player data. By default the file is called Save_DedicatedSaveMP.sav. |
Save_ClanData.sav |
The clan and group data of the server |
Both files are located in the same folder and belong together. Always transfer them together.
