The following guide will teach you how to migrate your game server and data from LogicServers to Citadel Servers.
Step 1: Create a Backup Through LogicServers
Before beginning the migration process, create a backup of your server through the LogicServers control panel.
Having a recent backup provides a restore point in the event any files need to be recovered later.
Step 2: Download Your Server Files
Access your LogicServers File Manager or connect using FTP to download your server files.
We recommend downloading all important content, including:
• World saves
• Maps and custom worlds
• Player data and permissions
• Mods and workshop content
• Plugins and plugin configurations
• Configuration files
• Custom scripts and server content
Save all downloaded files to your local computer before proceeding.
Step 3: Upload Files to Citadel Servers
Connect to your Citadel Servers service using FTP or the Game Panel File Manager.
Upload all downloaded files into the corresponding directories on your Citadel Servers service.
FTP is recommended for larger transfers, especially for servers containing large maps, mods, or custom content.
You can follow our FTP setup guide here: FTP Guide
Step 4: Verify Server Configuration
Before starting your server, verify the following:
• The correct game version is installed
• Mods and plugins were uploaded successfully
• Configuration files transferred correctly
• Startup settings match your previous configuration
• Administrative permissions are configured properly
Step 5: Start and Test Your Server
Start your Citadel Servers service and verify that the migration completed successfully.
• Worlds load correctly
• Player data is present
• Mods and plugins function properly
• Players can connect successfully
Alternative Method: Upload a Backup Archive
If you created a downloadable backup through LogicServers, you may upload the backup archive directly through the Citadel Servers File Manager.
Once uploaded, extract the archive and move the files into the proper server directories.
Common Migration Issues
Missing World or Save Data
Verify that all world folders, save files, and player data were transferred successfully.
Mods or Plugins Not Loading
Ensure all required files, dependencies, and configuration files were uploaded completely.
Server Startup Errors
Review your startup logs and verify that all required files and settings were migrated correctly.
