Connect in Seconds

  1. Open FileZilla and enter the host/IP from your subscription page, port 2121.
  2. Use the FTP username/password shown in the panel (works even if the server is offline).
  3. Save it as a Site Manager profile so uploads resume automatically.

Key Directories

  • /Mods/ – every mod folder lives here.
  • /Saves/ – worlds, players, backups of Level.sav.
  • /Data/Prefabs/ – POI packs for modded maps.
  • /logs/latest.log – live startup logs for debugging.
  • /serverconfig.xml – edit carefully; keep a copy before saving.

Reliable Upload Workflow

  1. Queue files on the left and drop them into the target folder on the right.
  2. Watch the Failed Transfers tab—large uploads often need one requeue.
  3. After everything is green, refresh the panel and restart the server.

Advanced Tricks

  • Use the compare directories feature in FileZilla to spot missing files.
  • Right-click → View/Edit to open configs locally; FileZilla auto-uploads the change on save.
  • Schedule regular downloads of /Backups/ to your PC for disaster recovery.
