How to Reset Your World
Want a fresh start? Here is how to delete your current world and generate a new one.
Warning
This action is irreversible! Once you delete your world files, they cannot be recovered unless you have a backup.
Step-by-Step Guide
- Stop your server completely.
- Go to the "File Manager" tab in the panel.
- Locate your world folder. By default, it is named
world.
- If you have Nether and End enabled, you might also see
world_nether and world_the_end.
- Select the folder(s) by clicking the checkbox next to them.
- Click the "Delete" button (usually a trash can icon). Confirm the deletion.
- Start your server.
The server will detect that the world files are missing and automatically generate a brand new seed for you.
Changing the Seed
If you want a specific map seed:
- Before starting the server, go to
server.properties.
- Find the
level-seed= line.
- Enter your desired seed (e.g.,
level-seed=8675309).
- Save and Start the server.
