During the generation process, note the settings you use, such as:
-
The world name.

The seed.

The world size.

If you select CompoPack for prefabs, ensure that the CompoPack mod matching your server version is installed using a mod manager.

Connect to your server via an FTP client.

Navigate to
7DaysToDie/Data/Worlds/
on your server. -
Upload the generated world folder (e.g.,
NitrogenWorld
) to this directory.

Update Server Configuration:

Open
serverconfig.xml
or use the configuration manager in your control panel. -
Set
GameWorld
to the name of the uploaded Nitrogen world folder (e.g.,NitrogenWorld
). -
Set
GameName
to the desired name that will appear in-game under the map column. -
Ensure the
WorldGenSeed
andWorldGenSize
settings match those used in the Nitrogen generator.

Restart the server and ensure that the console logs indicate the custom world has loaded successfully.

Troubleshooting Tips

Version Mismatch: If the server doesn’t load your world, double-check the game version compatibility.

Missing Files: Ensure both the
Saves
andGeneratedWorlds
folders (for RWG) are uploaded completely. -
Configuration Errors: Verify that
GameWorld
andGameName
settings match the uploaded files precisely.
