Introduction

Want to erase your server's progress so you and your players can start completely fresh? This is possible with the wipe options, which we explain here in detail.

Types of Wipes

There are three types of server wipes: partial, gold, and full wipes, which we introduce in detail here:

Partial Wipe: This type partially deletes save file contents, removes structures and custom map areas, but preserves player progress.
Gold Wipe: This type resets only the gold balance of all players on the server. Structures, vehicles, inventories, skills, and the rest of the player progress remain fully intact – ideal for balancing your server's economy without destroying players' building progress.
Full Wipe: This type completely deletes the contents of save files, removes structures, custom map areas, and player progress.

Performing a Wipe

The server settings in-game allow you to access the available wipe options. Connect to your server and open the Server Settings menu.

Navigate to the Partial, Gold, and Full Wipe section under General Settings. Enable the desired wipe option as needed and confirm it. The change will take effect on the next restart.

Warning

Admin Rights Required To access the server settings in-game, Admin Rights are necessary.
