How to restore only the world or only the settings of your Enshrouded server

EnshroudedUpdated Oct 20, 20263 min read

Use Restore some files... on a backup, tick the savegame folder to put back only the world, or enshrouded_server.json to put back only your settings, and click Restore selected.

Restore only the world

  1. Open your server in the panel and click Backups in the left menu.
  2. Find a finished backup, open its ... menu and choose Restore some files....
  3. Wait while the window reads the backup. On the tab Files and folders, tick the savegame folder.
The Restore some files window with the savegame folder ticked
  1. Click Restore selected.

The server stops for the moment the files are swapped, then starts again. The window says if the files are put back at the next start instead. In that case start the server from the Console when you are ready.

Restore only the settings

Do the same, and tick enshrouded_server.json instead of savegame. That puts back your passwords, difficulty, chat and permissions, and leaves your world as it is.

Check afterwards

  1. Open Files and the savegame folder. It should hold world0.ksd and the backup folder, and no other file whose name starts with world0.ksd. The game takes in every such file, so a stray one can be loaded instead of your world.
  2. Follow How to check which world your Enshrouded server loaded.

Undo

The files a restore replaces are kept in a folder called .pnh-restore for 7 days. Click Undo last restore in the same window, within 24 hours, to put them back as they were.
