How to Upload a Save to Your Icarus Server
Transfer prospect and outpost saves from your local game to your Icarus dedicated server.
You can migrate a local singleplayer prospect to your dedicated server by copying the save files.
Warning: Do NOT rename prospect save files or edit their JSON contents — this causes unrecoverable corruption per the official RocketWerkz documentation.
Local Save Location
Your local prospect saves are at:
%UserProfile%\AppData\Local\Icarus\Saved\PlayerData\{SteamID}\Prospects\Each prospect is a .json file.
Upload to the Server
Stop the server
In the XGamingServer Panel, go to Console and stop the server.
Upload the prospect file
Click Files in the sidebar and navigate to Icarus/Saved/PlayerData/DedicatedServer/Prospects/. Upload your .json prospect file here.
Configure the server to load the prospect
In Icarus/Saved/Config/ServerSettings.ini, set:
[/script/icarus.dedicatedserversettings]
LoadProspect=YourProspectNameOr set ResumeProspect=true if it's the only prospect.
Start the server
Start from Console. The server loads the uploaded prospect.
Character Persistence
Character data (levels, talents, tech tree) persists across prospects and is stored separately from prospect saves. Uploading a prospect does not transfer character progress — players keep their existing character data.
