How to Upload an Existing World to Your Hytale Server

You can run any locally saved Hytale world on your server by uploading it to the correct directory and pointing the server configuration at it.

Before you start: You will need an FTP client to transfer files to your server. The default world name is default.

1. Connect to your server using an FTP client or the File Manager in the game panel.
2. Navigate to ./universe/worlds/ on the server.
3. Upload your world folder into the worlds directory.
4. In the game panel, navigate to Configuration Files and open config.json using the Config Editor.
5. Edit the World Name setting to match the name of the folder you uploaded.
6. Click Save and start your server.

The server will load your uploaded world on the next start. If the folder name does not match the World Name setting exactly, the server will fall back to the default world.

Troubleshooting

• World not loading: Double-check that the World Name value in config.json matches the uploaded folder name exactly, including case.
• Upload fails or is slow: Large world folders transfer faster over FTP than through the browser-based File Manager.
