How to Upload an Existing Abiotic Factor Save To Your Server

This tutorial will guide you through the process of uploading an existing world save file to your Abiotic Factor server.

You may also refer to this guide on how to upload files to your game server.

If you get stuck at any time, Game Host Bros offers free world transfers. Just reach out to a bro on Discord.

Danger

This will delete or overwrite any progress you have made on the server.

This guide only works with Steam saves. Saves from PS5, Xbox, and Windows Game Pass platforms cannot be transferred to dedicated servers.

Finding Your Local Abiotic Factor Save File

  1. 1

    Press Windows Key + R and enter this:

    %LOCALAPPDATA%\AbioticFactor\Saved\SaveGames
    

    Enter your Steam ID folder (For example: 76561198106341655) and open Worlds.

  2. 2

    Each folder in here is a world save. Find the one you want to migrate and copy the entire folder.

For example:
