Astro Colony

Load your existing Astro Colony world after a restart

Should Load Latest Savegame tells the server whether to load its latest save. Map Name and Map Seed are separate controls; changing them while troubleshooting can make it look as though progress has disappeared.

Make the change

  1. Stop the server and back up the existing AstroColony/Saved folder.
  2. Record Map Name, Map Seed and Should Load Latest Savegame in Startup.
  3. Keep the original map identity and enable Should Load Latest Savegame (1) for the existing world.
  4. Check that Autosave Interval and Autosaves Count are set to the values you intend.
  5. Start once, watch the load messages and join to check a familiar structure before playing further.

Autosave IntervalMinutes between Astro Colony autosaves. For example, 5.0 means five minutes.
Should Load Latest SavegameControls whether Astro Colony loads its latest save at startup. Keep the existing save files when changing this option. On or off (the panel may display True/False or 1/0).

Check the result

If the world is still wrong, stop before new saves replace useful recovery points. Send support the save filenames and load messages. Keep the original backup intact.
