    Hello,

    I want to know if there is a way to save the physical appearance of my map/landscape. I know when you wipe for an update the map generation may altar the shape/appearance of your map. I am wondering if there is a way to save my exact map, so even after I wipe my server for an update, I can have the same exact map always.

    Unless you aren't properly setting your +server.seed and +server.worldsize, then you should have the same map when it gets wiped.

    I have a server seed, and a server level however I do not have a server.worldsize in my server command line. (GameServers)

    You should specify the world size, otherwise it could change.

    +server.worldsize 2000

    Or whatever size you had previously. It is added to your startup or command-line with your host.
