The recommended client is [FileZilla](https:\u002F\u002Ffilezilla-project.org\u002Fdownload.php?show_all=1), which is free and available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.\n\n## Steps to Connect\n\n1. Log in to your [Game Control Panel](https:\u002F\u002Fgamepanel.hosthavoc.com\u002F) and navigate to your server.\n2. Locate the **FTP Info** section near the middle of the panel. Copy the FTP address (for example, `167.114.172.201:8821`) and paste it into the **Host** field in FileZilla.\n3. Enter your control panel username and password into the **Username** and **Password** fields in FileZilla.\n4. The **Port** will be filled in automatically when you paste the address from step 2.\n5. Click **Quickconnect** to establish the connection.\n\n   ![FTP Info shown on the game panel, used as the FileZilla host](https:\u002F\u002Fcontent.hosthavoc.com\u002Fassets\u002F2d958492-4ca2-42ed-8f25-26c6c26fd816)\n\n   ![FileZilla Username and Password fields filled in](https:\u002F\u002Fcontent.hosthavoc.com\u002Fassets\u002Fc7ad63d9-3ccf-495f-99f2-dbda4fca9497)\n\n> **Note:** If the panel shows **SFTP Info** instead of **FTP Info**, add `sftp:\u002F\u002F` in front of the IP address before pasting it into FileZilla. For example: `sftp:\u002F\u002F167.114.172.201:8821`.\n\n> **Tip:** You can change your control panel password from within the panel at any time. Use the same credentials for FTP.\n\nOnce connected, you can browse your server files.

You can choose a quick method that keeps the old save on disk, or a full deletion. Player profiles (skills, level, inventory) are stored separately and can be preserved either way. Before wiping, make sure you have [Random World Generation](\u002Fwiki\u002Fgame-servers\u002F7-days-to-die\u002Fsetup-rwg) configured if you want a new procedurally generated map after the reset.\n\n> **Warning:** This is destructive. All world data will be lost. Download any backups you want to keep before proceeding.\n\n> **Before you start:** Stop your server completely before making any file changes.\n\n## Method A: Quick reset by renaming the save\n\nThis is the fastest approach. The old save stays on disk and can be restored later.\n\n1. Log into the [Game Control Panel](https:\u002F\u002Fgamepanel.hosthavoc.com\u002F) and stop your server.\n2. Click **Configuration Files** and open `serverconfigfull.xml` in the **Config Editor**.\n3. Change the **Game Name** value to a new name (for example, change `MyServer` to `MyServer2`).\n4. Click **Save** and start the service. The server generates a fresh world using the existing **Game World** and **World Generation Seed** settings.\n\n> **Tip:** To restore the old world later, change **Game Name** back to the original value and restart.\n\n## Method B: Full deletion\n\nThis permanently removes the save folder from disk.\n\n1. Log into the [Game Control Panel](https:\u002F\u002Fgamepanel.hosthavoc.com\u002F) and stop your server.\n2. Click **File Manager** and navigate to `userdata\u002FSaves\u002F\u003CGame World>\u002F\u003CGame Name>\u002F`.\n3. Delete the entire `\u003CGame Name>` folder. This wipes the world and all player profile files stored in that save.\n4. Start the service. A new save is generated with the same name.\n\n## Preserving player profiles during a full wipe\n\nBefore deleting the save folder in step 3 above, download the `Player\u002F` subfolder from within `\u003CGame Name>\u002F` using File Manager. After the world regenerates, re-upload the `Player\u002F` folder into the new save directory. Players will keep their skill points, levels, and inventories but start in a fresh world.\n\n## Generating a different map layout\n\nFor RWG worlds, change the **World Generation Seed** in `serverconfigfull.xml` before restarting. A new seed produces a completely different map rather than regenerating the same layout.",{"id":131,"article_path":132,"date_created":133,"date_updated":85,"author_name":86,"featured_image":85,"category":134,"subcategory":138,"translations":141},83,"delete-player","2026-06-09T03:14:45.000Z",{"id":63,"kind":88,"slug":85,"game":135,"translations":136},{"path":90,"name":51,"image_cover":91,"image_preview":92,"whmcs_order_url":93,"fullpath":52},[137],{"languages_code":96,"name":51,"description":97},{"id":67,"slug":99,"sort":100,"display_style":101,"translations":139},[140],{"languages_code":96,"name":104},[142],{"languages_code":96,"title":143,"title_short":144,"description":145,"content_md":146},"How to Delete a Player from Your 7 Days to Die Server","Delete Player","Remove a player and their associated data from your 7 Days to Die server by editing the players.xml file and deleting their player files.","Deleting a player removes their data from your server, including their character, inventory, and position.

Starting with files mid-transfer can corrupt the world.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. On your local PC, open File Explorer and navigate to `C:\\Users\\%user%\\AppData\\Roaming\\7DaysToDie`.\n2. Copy the world folder you want to upload from `C:\\Users\\%user%\\AppData\\Roaming\\7DaysToDie\\GeneratedWorlds` on your PC to the `Data\u002FWorlds` folder on your Host Havoc server.\n3. In the same `7DaysToDie` folder on your PC, open `Saves` and find the folder that matches the world name you copied in step 2. Copy that folder from `C:\\Users\\%user%\\AppData\\Roaming\\7DaysToDie\\Saves` to the `userdata\u002FSaves` folder on the server.\n\n   > **Note:** If you are running Alpha 21, save data is stored in the `7dtdsaves` folder in the root directory instead of `userdata\u002FSaves`.\n\n4. Open `serverconfigfull.xml` in the game panel Config Editor and confirm these four settings match the world you uploaded exactly:\n   - **Game World:** must match the folder name uploaded to `Data\u002FWorlds`\n   - **World Gen Seed:** must match the seed used when the world was originally created\n   - **World Gen Size:** must match the size of the uploaded world\n   - **Game Name:** must match the first subfolder inside the world folder in your save directory\n5. Start your service.\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n- **Server starts but generates a new world instead of loading yours.** Double-check that Game World, Game Name, World Gen Seed, and World Gen Size in `serverconfigfull.xml` match the uploaded files exactly. Any mismatch causes the server to treat the save as new.\n- **Moving from another host.** The file structure is identical: copy `GeneratedWorlds` and `Saves` from the old host's server using FTP and follow the same steps above.",{"data":165},[166],{"cta_url":85,"translations":167},[168],{"languages_code":96,"cta_label":169,"cta_title":170,"cta_body":171},"Rent a 7 Days to Die Server","Need a 7 Days to Die server?","Overhaul mods, random worlds, crossplay.
