How To Reset Player Data on a Hytale Server
There are times when you may need to reset player data on a Hytale server. This might be to fix a bugged character, resolve progression issues, or give a player a fresh start. Resetting player data is a straightforward process when you know where to look, but it should always be done carefully to avoid removing more information than intended.
Using the Control Panel
Navigate to your Nodecraft Dashboard.
Click the Panel button for your Hytale server.
Locate and click Players in the menu on the left side. Here, you will find a list of all the players that currently have data on your server.
To delete a player's data, click the trash can icon next to their name.
Note: Make sure the player is not on the server when this is done.
Manually Resetting the Files
Navigate to your Nodecraft Dashboard.
Click the Panel button for your Hytale server.
Locate and click Server Files in the menu on the left side.
Navigate to /universe/players Here, you will find a file for each player that has joined your server, named by their UUID.
To reset a specific player, you’ll need to delete the .json and .json.bak corresponding to the players UUID. You can look up their UUID by their username here.
Note: Make sure the player is not on the server when this is done.
Conclusion
Resetting player data in Hytale can quickly resolve issues that normal gameplay cannot fix. Once the reset is complete, the affected player will start fresh the next time they join the server. As with any data change, it is a good idea to double-check what is being removed before making the reset, especially on active servers.
