How To Reset Your Satisfactory World

Learn how to completely wipe and restart your world while keeping your server intact.

Whether you’re starting a new factory or resolving a corrupted save, resetting your Satisfactory world is a quick way to start fresh. You can reset your world directly from the in-game Server Manager or manually through your RocketNode Panel.

Method 1: Resetting In-Game

  1. Join your server and press the Escape (Esc) key to open the menu.
  2. Click on Server Manager.
  3. Select the Create Game tab.
  4. Choose a Starting Area, enter a Session Name, and click Start Game.

This will replace your existing save with a brand-new world. All previous progress will be lost unless backed up.

Method 2: Resetting via File Manager

  1. Log in to your RocketNode Panel and stop your server.

  2. Go to the File Manager from your server dashboard.

  3. Navigate to the following directory:

    /.config/Epic/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/
    
  4. Delete the folder associated with your current world save.

This will wipe the current game world from your server. When you restart and join the server, you’ll be prompted to create a new game.
