How to add pre existing world and data.

[opal turret]

Since Ploudos has announced that it's shutting down on the 30th of September, I'm having to move me and my friend's server onto a new server. However, after creating it as a world , and changing that into a .zip, uploading that result in a random world being created, and not same world. I've tried multiple times, even on different ips, and it's not working. please can someone help me.

you need to delete the old world, upload your world, unzip and rename it so it's in the world, world_nether, world_the_end folders etc

or alternatively change the Selected World option in the Settings tab to the name of the uploaded world
