Abiotic Factor functions off of a world system similar to other survival games. As a result, players can upload single-player saves or locally hosted playthroughs onto a dedicated server by simply moving the required files. Unlike generating a new world, uploading a world retains all save progress, allowing players to continue playthroughs on a dedicated server. Dedicated servers have many benefits, such as customizing game settings, controlling backups, or having the server online 24/7.
