Schedule wipes
Map wipes, blueprint wipes and the forced monthly wipe, and how to automate all three.
4 min read
- Map wipe — clears buildings and loot, keeps blueprints. Deletes the .sav files.
- Blueprint wipe — resets everything players have learned. Deletes player.blueprints.5.db.
- Forced wipe — the first Thursday of each month, when Facepunch's update breaks save compatibility. Not optional.
- 1Open Wipes in the panel.
- 2Pick the type and the recurrence — weekly, biweekly or monthly.
- 3Turn on seed rotation if you want a new map each wipe.
- 4Enable the Discord announcement so your players know before it happens, not after.
