Keep your Night of the Dead save after a server restart

Savegame Name identifies the game save. Server Name is the public listing. Changing one is not a safe substitute for changing the other.

Make the change

  1. Stop and back up LF/Saved before changing save-related settings.
  2. Record Savegame Name exactly as used by the established world.
  3. If you only want a different listing name, edit Server Name and keep Savegame Name unchanged.
  4. Start and read LF/Saved/Logs/LF.log for the selected save.
  5. Join and check a familiar base before new progress is written.

Check the result
