• Back up and restore a Project Zomboid save

  A Project Zomboid save is a world folder plus a player database, and a backup is only any use if it has both. Here is where they live, how to copy them cleanly, and how to roll back after a mod update ruins your world.

• Installing Steam Workshop Mods on Your Project Zomboid Server

  Adding Steam Workshop mods to a Project Zomboid server means putting two values in your servertest.ini for every mod, the numeric Workshop ID on the WorkshopItems line and the text Mod ID on the Mods line, then restarting so the server downloads and loads them.

• Editing Your Project Zomboid Server and Sandbox Settings

  Project Zomboid keeps its settings in two files, servertest.ini for server options like the name, password and player slots, and servertest_SandboxVars.lua for the world rules like zombie count and loot, and you edit both on the Server properties page of your control panel.

• Fixing a Project Zomboid Server That Is Not Showing in the Browser

  If your Project Zomboid server is missing from the in-game Internet browser, it is almost always because it is set to private, still starting up, or filtered out, and the quickest fix is to connect straight to it by IP under Favorites.

• How Much RAM Does a Project Zomboid Server Need?

  A vanilla Project Zomboid server runs well on about 2 to 3 GB of RAM for a small group, and you should add memory as you invite more players and stack on Workshop mods, especially large map packs.

• Transferring a Project Zomboid Save to GuavaHost

  Moving a Project Zomboid world means copying two things, the map folder from Saves/Multiplayer and the matching database file from the db folder, then keeping the same server name and mod list so your world and players load exactly as they were.

Om disse guidene

Project Zomboid deler konfigurasjonen sin i to, og å vite hvilken halvdel du redigerer sparer deg for mye forvirring: serverinnstillingsfilen holder det som handler om serveren, og sandkassefilen holder det som handler om verdenen. Én guide dekker begge og sier hvilken som er hvilken.

Rundt det: å koble til og serverbrowseren, å bli admin slik at du kan moderere inne i spillet, Steam Workshop-mods og mod-ID-lista de krever, hvor mye RAM et gitt antall spillere faktisk vil ha, og å ta med et eksisterende save. Mods er den vanligste årsaken til en server som ikke vil starte, så installer dem én om gangen.
