Terraria: Uploading a World
Moving a world from your PC to a dedicated server allows you to share your single-player creations with friends online. This process involves uploading the file and telling the server to load it.
1. Find Local File
Your saves are at: Documents\My Games\Terraria\Worlds\.
2. Upload to Server
Using the File Manager, upload to: /terraria/Worlds/.
3. Config Change
Crucially, you must change the **World Name** in the server settings to match the filename (without .wld).
Step 1: Preparation
- On your PC, go to
Documents\My Games\Terraria\Worlds\. - Find your world file (e.g.,
CrimsonFortress.wld). - **Tip:** Rename it to something simple like
world1.wldto avoid issues with spaces or special characters on Linux servers.
Step 2: Uploading
- Stop your Supercraft Server.
- Open the **File Manager**.
- Navigate to the
/terraria/Worlds/folder. - Click **Upload** using the sidebar or Drag & Drop your
world1.wldfile. - Wait for the progress bar to complete (green checkmark).
Step 3: Activating the World
Just uploading it isn't enough; the server doesn't know it exists yet.
- Go to the **Startup** or **Server Settings** tab in your control panel.
- Find the **World Name** field.
- Enter the exact name of your file excluding the
.wldextension.
Example: If file isworld1.wld, enterworld1. - Save Settings and **Start the Server**.
Troubleshooting: If the server generates a generic "World 1", it means it couldn't find your file. Check capitalization! Linux is case-sensitive. World1.wld is different from world1.wld.
