Prep or change the map

Reviewed

Two tools strip a map back to a bare stage, and a third moves the whole server somewhere else.

In the menus: ESC → Direct → Scene → PREP

Prepare the map

Neither button on the popup asks a second time, so read both lines first.

PREP removes map characters and story actions but keeps your placed scene. Reusable lift and door scripts stay when they contain movement.

HARD RESET wipes your placed scene and clears the map. It restores normal gravity and an upright world.

Move everyone to another map

In the menus: ESC → Direct → Scene → MAP

The list is the maps the server has, crossed with the maps you have, since there is no auto-download. Select a row, then CHANGE MAP, and confirm.

Things to note

  • The failsafe spawn point lands where you are standing. On a map with no other spawn points that is where everybody arrives.

Prefer the console?

/prepmap hardreset is the other button. Without director mode every form answers "Director mode required.", the bare help included.
