This tutorial will guide you through the process of uploading an existing world save file to your Abiotic Factor server.
You may also refer to this guide on how to upload files to your game server.
If you get stuck at any time, Game Host Bros offers free world transfers. Just reach out to a bro on Discord.
This will delete or overwrite any progress you have made on the server.
This guide only works with Steam saves. Saves from PS5, Xbox, and Windows Game Pass platforms cannot be transferred to dedicated servers.
