Uploading a save file to an Alchemy Factory server lets players seamlessly transition their single-player progress or custom local builds into a shared multiplayer environment. It allows a community to preserve complex factory layouts, automated alchemy pipelines, and hard-earned achievements without having to start from scratch. Additionally, hosting a pre-existing world on a dedicated server enables team members to access and work on the shared base even when the original host is offline.
Note: Make backups locally to avoid losing any necessary files.
1. Open the Run app.
2. Enter the following: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\AlchemyFactory\Saved\SaveGames
3. Minimize the folder to use later in the tutorial.
4. Log in to the BisectHosting Starbase panel.
5. Stop the server.
6. Go to the Files tab.
7. Find the following directory: /home/container/AlchemyFactory/Saved/SaveGames
8. Delete the current world folder.
9. Upload the world folder from step 3.
10. Start the server.
