How to Add a Savegame to Your The Front Server

The Front does not use a world name in its configuration. A save is always the complete folder GameStates – not a single file. You upload that folder with all of its contents to the location where your server expects its save.

Upload the savegame

1. Stop the server
   Stop your server via the dashboard. While the server is running it writes to the save files itself.

2. Connect via SFTP
   Connect to your server via SFTP.

3. Open the directory
   Navigate to the following directory:

   /TheFrontManager/<ConfigName>/Saved/
   

4. Remove the old save
   Rename the existing GameStates folder (for example to GameStates_old) or delete it.

5. Upload GameStates
   Upload your GameStates folder including all subfolders and files into this directory. The folder has to be named exactly GameStates.

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