I migrated my dedicated server from my Windows gaming PC to another Windows computer. I’m using steamcmd to run the server on the new computer. It makes me create a new character upon login. After doing so, I see my base but it doesn’t know it’s mine. Additionally it doesn’t say I’m in my guild. Any help would be appreciated! TIA!
