Summary
Abiotic Factor functions off of a world system similar to other survival games. As a result, players can upload single-player saves or locally hosted playthroughs onto a dedicated server by simply moving the required files. Unlike Generating a New World, uploading a world retains all save progress, allowing players to continue playthroughs on a dedicated server. Dedicated servers have many benefits, such as customizing game settings, controlling backups, or having the server online 24/7.
How to Upload a World to an Abiotic Factor Server
1. Open the Run menu by pressing the Windows + R Key.
2. Enter the following: %LocalAppData%/AbioticFactor/Saved/SaveGames and choose Ok.

10. Start the server.
