Restarting a 7 Days to Die map allows users to start over on the same server while using the same or new maps. Users can reset their maps independently of their player data, allowing users to save their progress on skills and keep their gear even on different maps. Player data can transfer to any map, meaning users can even transfer singleplayer data to their server by uploading the same files found in this guide.
Note: Changing maps will reset player data. To keep the same characters, learn how to here.
1. Log in to the BisectHosting Starbase panel.
2. Stop the server.
3. Go to the Config Files tab and choose Server Config.
4. From the GameWorld line, change the value to the desired following:
Navezgane - The default map, hand-crafted by the developers, it's widely recommended to start on this map.RWG - Randomly generates a new map according to the WorldGenSeed. New players download the map when joining.PREGEN6k - A small pre-generated random world. PREGEN8k - A medium pre-generated random world.PREGEN10k - A large pre-generated random world.
Note: It is recommended to make RWG maps in singleplayer and then transfer them to the server. Pre-generated worlds don't require new players to download them, allowing faster load times.
5. Change the GameName and GameMode lines to new desired values.
6. Press the Save button.
7. Start the server. The new world will be generated with the chosen game name.
