Selecting a Different Map in 7 Days to Die

By default, your server starts with the Navezgane map.
However, you can also start the server with one of the other available maps.
Note: You can learn how to upload and start your own maps in the Upload FTP section.
First, you need to switch your server to Advanced Mode.
Then, you can enter the desired map in the serverconfig.xml file at the following location:

<property name="GameWorld" value="Navezgane"/>

Replace Navezgane with the name of the world you want to play.

These maps are currently included with the server:

• Navezgane: The server’s default map

Randomly Generated Maps

In addition to the pre-generated maps, it is possible to have the server generate a map for you.

• <property name="GameWorld" value="RWG"/>: Instructs the server to generate a map
• <property name="WorldGenSeed" value="asdf"/>: Determines the appearance of the map using a seed
• <property name="WorldGenSize" value="6144"/>: Defines the size of the map. Possible values: 6144,8192,10240
• <property name="GameName" value="World"/>: Sets the name of the savegame.

Once you have made your desired settings, click Save in the bottom right corner and start the server.
Once it is running, please stop the server again.
You can find the generated map on the Savegames FTP in the following folder:
<ConfigurationID>/worlds/GeneratedWorlds
Note: You can find the for your server on our website under Gameserver.
If your ConfigurationID is, for example, 123456, it would look like this: /123456/worlds/GeneratedWorlds
Make a note of the map’s name

Replace RWG with the name of the generated map here:
<property name="GameWorld" value="RWG"/>
Click Save in the bottom right corner and start the server.

Important: After the first start, you must stop the server and enter the generated map!
Otherwise, a new map will be generated every time you start!
Also, pay attention to the capitalization.
