Worlds & backupsThere are two layers of backup: the backups of your plan, which you make and restore from the panel, and the Hytale server's own automatic backups.
The two layers
| Panel backups | Hytale's automatic backups | |
|---|---|---|
| Who makes them | You, from the panel's Backups tab | The server itself, every so often |
| How many | The number included in your plan | Depends on the server's settings |
| Official settings | — | --backup, --backup-dir and --backup-frequency (in minutes, 30 by default) |
A routine worth keeping
- Back up before every game update and before adding or removing mods.
- Keep at least one backup from before any big change until you're sure the change went well.
- Download an occasional copy of
universe/to your own computer for the worlds you'd hate to lose.
