How to Upload a Save to Your Sons of the Forest Server

How to transfer a save to your SotF dedicated server.

Save Slots

SotF supports 4 save slots. Set via SaveSlot (1–4) in dedicatedserver.cfg.

Uploading

  1. Stop server
  2. Copy save folder contents to the server's multiplayer save directory
  3. Set SaveSlot to match and SaveMode to "Continue"
  4. Start server

Starting Fresh

Set SaveMode to "New" — auto-switches to "Continue" after first launch.

⚠️ Setting "New" overwrites any existing save in that slot.
