How to Change the World GUID on Your Sunkenland Server<\/h2>\n

The World GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) is a critical setting for Sunkenland dedicated servers. It tells the server exactly which save file to load from your directory. If you are uploading a local save or switching between multiple different worlds, you must update this GUID to match the specific world folder. Follow these steps to change your World GUID using the GGServers panel.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Access the GGServers Panel and Stop Your Server<\/h3>\n

Log in to your account at the GGServers Control Panel<\/a>. Before changing the world data, you must Stop<\/strong> your server. This prevents file corruption and ensures the server looks for the new GUID immediately upon the next startup.<\/p>\n

\"Stop\n
Always stop the server before changing world identifiers.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Step 2: Navigate to Server Settings<\/h3>\n

On the left-hand navigation sidebar, click on Server Settings<\/strong>. This will expand the configuration menus for your Sunkenland instance.<\/p>\n

\"Server\n
Click the Server Settings button.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Step 3: Open the General Settings Tab<\/h3>\n

From the submenu, select the General Settings<\/strong> tab. This section contains the core identity and startup parameters for your server.<\/p>\n

\"General\n
Navigate to General Settings.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Step 4: Update the World GUID<\/h3>\n

Locate the box named World GUID<\/strong>. The GUID is the unique string of characters found at the end of your world save folder name. For example, if your save folder is named MyWorld~12345-67890-abcde<\/em>, the GUID you need to enter is 12345-67890-abcde<\/code>. The GGServers panel features an auto-save system, so your new GUID is saved immediately.<\/p>\n

\"Entering\n
Specify which world to load by entering its GUID here.<\/figcaption>\n<\/figure>\n

Step 5: Start Your Server<\/h3>\n

Once you have entered the correct GUID, return to the main dashboard and click Start<\/strong>. Your server will now load the specific world associated with that identifier. If the GUID does not match an existing save file, the server will fail to start and shut down automatically.<\/p>\n
