Today we are going to go over world pregeneration. One of the largest resource loads that can cause lag on a server is world generation. To mitigate this, you can have the server pregenerate the world which in turn means the server won't need as many resources to load the world as players are exploring. 

Pregenerating a World

  1. Open your Dashboard.

  2. Locate your Hytale server and click on the Panel button. 

  3. Click on Game Settings.

  8. Start your server. After a few minutes depending on the size of region you are wanting pregenerated the process should be completed. 

Conclusion

You have now pregenerated your world. With a pregenerated world you should see less server load and in some cases more responsiveness when exploring especially in pregenerated regions of your world.
