More migration options and smarter server assistance
Move more Legacy services to ZapX, get more capable AI assistance, and manage your servers with clearer status, safer access, and more reliable app setup.
This release opens more routes from Legacy to ZapX and makes everyday server management easier. AI assistance gains new capabilities, server and app problems become easier to understand, and improvements across backups, billing, support, and public tools help you get things done with fewer interruptions.
More reliable moves from Legacy
- Move eligible prepaid servers to ZapX. Prepaid VPS, gameserver, Discord bot, and rental dedicated packages can now become regular subscriptions at ZapX list prices. They renew until cancelled, need no Pass or Lifetime slot, and are first charged the day after the last paid Legacy runtime ends.
- Complete migration sign-in with fewer detours. Google, Discord, and Twitch confirmation pages are no longer blocked by the preview gate. If a confirmation link expires, clearer instructions explain how to restart sign-in instead of entering the code in the wrong form.
- Failed moves no longer leave services reserved indefinitely. Clean gameserver and Discord bot rollbacks automatically unlock the Legacy service; abandoned dedicated rental reservations can be released immediately or expire after 72 hours. Retryable gameserver moves retry every six hours, release their Lifetime slot after the 72-hour retry window, and provide an email and wizard option to try again.
- Keep more of your existing game configuration. Garry’s Mod moves preserve customer-owned Steam login tokens and DarkRP startup settings; migrated player counts follow the server’s booked slots. Palworld retains existing values where newer defaults differ, while ARK map handling and unused generated-world detection make empty-server checks more accurate.
- Get working access after a move. FiveM and RedM moves preserve working ZapX txAdmin access, including password resets. Games without a query response also receive a stronger startup check, reducing the risk of marking a move successful before the world has finished loading.
- Bring connected Coolify servers with you. Legacy Coolify nodes can be taken over and linked to their panel regardless of move order, with support for external-panel connections where the required Legacy connection details are available. Dedicated servers used as Classic game or TeamSpeak interface roots can proceed with a warning rather than a blanket block; those interface services do not themselves move.
- Make clearer choices in the migration wizard. Unneeded dedicated Lifetime-slot options stay hidden, domain guidance explicitly covers records and nameservers, and domains moved to ZapX arrive with automatic renewal enabled. Starting a fresh domain move after a rollback now presents a fresh offer instead of a stopped-migration message.
AI assistance that gets you further
- Spend fewer clicks and messages on safe diagnostics. Read-only Docker and Compose checks can run without confirmation when assessed as safe, and approval clicks no longer consume your hourly message allowance. Checks against your own hosted domains and quoted command text trigger fewer unnecessary prompts, while file-changing multiline scripts still require approval.
- Manage more from the conversation. The VPS assistant can list snapshots and backups, then delete snapshots or your own manual backups after confirmation. Zappy can also check VPS and dedicated traffic quotas, and gameserver shopping answers now include Lifetime prices and direct order links rather than relying on rental prices.
- Get a useful next step instead of a dead end. The assistant offers One-Click Apps setup when it is missing, waits for first-boot updates before starting installers, checks a website’s actual document root before placing files, and uses the dedicated server’s available installation catalog when recommending media.
- Make informed choices before changes. Choice cards clarify either/or questions, SSH key replacement guidance points to the panel’s key card, and warnings explain the consequences of renaming Windows Administrator or running an older rollback script. The assistant also explains its privacy-policy basis for diagnostics and offers alternatives instead of decompiling closed-source third-party software.
Clearer VPS controls and recovery
- Backups are easier to manage without unnecessary lockouts. Queued backups no longer block power controls, backups waiting behind another run no longer hold up unrelated backup work, and kept daily backups display a visible “Kept” badge.
- See whether an SSH key actually reached your server. The access panel shows transfer status, explains failures, and lets you retry unsuccessful transfers. Zappy can use the same failure information when helping with login problems.
- Recover Windows networking more reliably. “Re-apply network” now rewrites the full network configuration on migrated Windows VPS without a template. Invalid inherited DNS values are ignored, Windows adapter detection handles missing or slow-to-appear adapters more gracefully, and adopted servers recover more reliably when IPv6 is disabled inside the guest.
- Know when a panel restart is needed. ISO mounting explains when a newly added drive needs a stop/start from the panel, while driver and tool ISOs no longer take over the boot order. VPS status information now includes pending CPU or RAM restart requirements for mobile use, mobile hand-offs avoid welcome-dialog interruptions, and plan summaries use the correct singular “1 IP.”
One-Click Apps with fewer setup surprises
- Understand failed starts and retry sooner. App cards show a failed first start with its cause instead of remaining stuck on “Starting,” and Restart becomes available promptly. Setup also checks whether port 8080 is occupied and makes a stopped Coolify proxy visible rather than reporting an unreachable setup as healthy.
- Start with safer access defaults. Newly installed Coolify panels disable public registration, manual setup scripts no longer contain the administrator password, and manual setup avoids taking over a Coolify installation that ZapX did not create. HTTPS defaults and Secure-cookie warnings also help prevent login failures after installation.
- Get reachable app domains and custom game ports. Apps wait for their new hostname to be available on both nameservers before deployment or certificate renewal. Satisfactory now maps changed game and messaging ports correctly, and port-only template changes can be offered as updates.
Stronger game and community management
- Keep control over managed game updates. Existing gameservers retain their current image until an update is applied, with required security and Steam updates handled by the update policy. Failed update starts can roll back, Factorio gains stable-version update detection, and preorder fulfilment is guarded against placeholder or known-broken game images.
- Build Maker resources that fit your server. FiveM generation supports ESX Legacy and QBCore, including Qbox, with guidance for live player data in HUDs. Minecraft mods with custom blocks or items now include their textures, models, and language assets inside the mod file, without a separate resource pack to enable.
- Do more with TeamSpeak. The AI Agent can prepare a complete channel structure and server groups through one confirmation card. Restoring a backup without channel files preserves current uploads and icons, and servers moved from Classic can receive new custom subdomains.
- Install mods with fewer missing pieces. Thunderstore installation handles pinned dependency versions, follows dependency chains, and places patchers and configuration files correctly. FiveM and RedM resource-scan findings are visible in the panel with customer notifications.
- Get clearer game settings and more accurate resource use. Configuration-save errors name the rejected field, Counter-Strike: Source accepts supported player counts up to 64, and dedicated-IP hints no longer show a Minecraft-only port example for every game. Disk usage includes mounted Docker volumes, and PixARK keeps its linked Steam and query ports correctly paired so it can appear in server listings.
Support that keeps the context
- Find answers that were previously missed. Help search and the Help Center assistant now include article FAQs, while English support conversations can find relevant verified facts more reliably. Zappy also distinguishes Legacy Lifetime, rental, and interface services, and explains that a new VPS still receives its first daily system backup at the storage limit.
- Troubleshoot the ZapX Discord app with specific guidance. Zappy can check your actual setup, identify missing steps, and name the affected server and reason when a power command is refused, such as an active backup. Customer Discord bots also stop retrying failures that a restart cannot fix and show the underlying cause.
- Carry useful context into human support. Shop recommendation hand-offs include the selected package, configuration, and open question. After a hand-back, Zappy keeps your language, and Customer Success can follow up on an existing unanswered ticket instead of opening a duplicate.
- Keep ticket follow-ups on the right track. Conversations awaiting a first human reply are protected from the seven-day auto-close rule, while unanswered conversations last answered by Zappy can close after seven days. Eligible conversations return to Zappy after a staff reply, and opening support after using a console popout no longer causes the reported page crash.
Safer accounts and clearer billing
- Keep passwords out of stored AI conversations. Recognizable passwords typed into product AI chats are masked before storage. Secret masking also covers additional configuration assignment formats, reducing accidental exposure in stored diagnostic output and exports.
- Understand payment failures more easily. Failed-payment messages identify Apple Pay and Google Pay cards and offer guidance to re-add them. Billing-profile recovery and support-assisted correction of mistakenly locked currencies also address affected Classic migration accounts.
- Review updated terms without losing panel access. Existing customers can accept the current terms after sign-in or choose “Not now,” keeping their previously accepted terms until they agree. The terms clarify that the accepted German or English version determines the contract language, and mobile reminders respect a 24-hour deferral.
- Get more accurate Pass and programme guidance. Pass comparisons and AI answers explain that extra backup storage is bookable, and Pass orders receive stronger protection against altered order details. Affiliate guidance correctly describes free self-service activation without an application; repeated-withdrawal restrictions affect new-customer and reward codes, not withdrawal rights, refund amounts, or timing.
A more useful dashboard and tool collection
- See what needs your attention at a glance. Dashboard action links, attention counts, and the service-navigation indicator now agree about service problems instead of showing an all-clear beside a troubled server. Resource summaries surface the services needing attention, and the compact profile card links directly to profile settings.
- Navigate with clearer guidance. Consistent notices distinguish information, warnings, and blocking problems across service panels, billing, the shop, Pass, settings, and public tools. The Help Center gains a cleaner search experience, ranked content, a timeline, and a revised video layout; homepage package selections carry through to product pages, and VPS OS versions are clearer order buttons.
- Find a Minecraft seed before creating a world. The new Minecraft Seed Generator supports Java and Bedrock seeds, with Java spawn predictions, a nearby biome preview, and a spawn-biome filter for supported versions. Copy the configuration line or continue to the Seed Map to explore.
- Prepare Steam Workshop downloads for your own server. The new Steam Workshop Downloader turns Workshop links, IDs, and collections into ready-to-run SteamCMD commands and Linux or Windows scripts. It generates download instructions rather than downloading the mods in your browser.
- Export configurations that match the game’s format. SCP generators import real
config_gameplay.txtfiles and preserve raw values correctly, while quoted values are escaped without silently changing passwords or server names. Generator guidance distinguishes panel-managed fields and self-hosted file locations, and import descriptions more accurately explain comments and unknown settings. - Rely on more accurate tools and product information. Game calculators and guides receive verified factual corrections, including clearer supported-world-size and command guidance. Developer tools improve formatting detection and JWT key-format errors, mobile tools keep previews and trait badges within view, and location measurements wait until the page is ready; hardware information, social previews, localized links, and payment-method comparisons also receive corrections.
