How do I change my server seed?

🌱 How to Set a Custom Seed for Your Minecraft Server

Log into the Control Panel.

Click 'Manage' next to your server.

Navigate to your server files.

Find and open the server.properties file.

Locate level-seed and set it to the seed you'd like.

- If there is no level-seed parameter, you can add it manually at the bottom of the list:

level-seed=yourcustomseedhere

Press the 'Save File' button.

Generate a new world to apply the new seed.
See this guide: How do I generate a new world?

- The seed will only apply after generating a new world.
- Always take a backup before making major changes like resetting your world!
