It seems that after the update my home hosted server (separate from my PC) world has bricked. Every time I start the Windrose on the server it generates new world. Tried bunch of things such as restoring from older backup but no luck. Reinstalled windrose on the server completely in case there was something wrong but still no luck.
Copied the world from the server to my local PC and the world loads fine, pretty confused. Anyone has some ideas?

Dedicated server world issue - world works fine on local
Tried copying all the contents of the "old world" to the newly generated one as well as editing the details to match the ID in World.json but at that point it will make a fresh world again
#1501676360161034420 message check this bottom text I solved it with chatgpt I had some files reappearing every restart and it created a new world for me so needed to like kill by restart all those files from reappearing and it worked
Having the same Issue on rented server
in SaveWorkFlow.md file in R5 game folder Devs mentioned:
Loading Saves
- At startup, the game sequentially loads the saved states of databases from backups — first the account, then characters, and finally worlds.
- To do this, it checks the folder <db_root>/RocksDB_v2_Backups for the most recent save of each database marked with _Latest.
- If an archive is found, the game loads the database from that archive, overwriting the contents of <db_root>/RocksDB_v2/<data_base_type>/<data_base_id>/
- If the _Latest archive is missing or contains errors, a backup recovery process is started.
- The game searches for the newest backup for that database, verifies its integrity, and prompts the player in a special window to confirm restoration from that backup.
- A backup that contains an error is marked with the prefix Broken-
- If no functional backups are found, the world, character, or account is considered permanently lost
So, am I right - if i dont have fine backup files - i will never restore my server save files?
server endlesly creating new worlds?
That the most Stupidly implemented Backup restore
