1. Login to the Game Panel (click this link for easy access) and navigate to your Don't Starve Together server. Make sure your server is not running by pressing the Stop button.

2. Go to the File Manager section on the left hand side panel.DST - File Manager

 

3. Next, navigate to ServerFiles > DoNotStarveTogether > Server > Master.

Right click on the saves folder and press Delete.

NOTE: If this is a Caves server, you'll instead want to navigate to ServerFiles > DoNotStarveTogether > Server > Caves,

and delete the saves folder there. If you have both an overworld/forest (master) server as well as a caves (slave)

server that are synced to each other, you'll need to delete the saves folder on both of these servers.

 

4. If you have added any custom world generation settings to worldgenoverride.lua that you don't wish keep in your new world, you'll want to open this file by pressing the Edit button after right-clicking it. Skip to step 6 if you wish to keep these configurations.DST - Edit worldgenoverride.lua

 

5. Once you've opened worldgenoverride.lua, delete everything in this file and then press the Save & Exit button. Instead of deleting everything, you can also tweak and keep some of the settings in this file.

DST - delete config of worldgenoverride.lua

 

6. Head back to your Game Panel (click this link for easy access) and Start your server.

DST - Start Server

 

7. A new world should be generated in your Don't Starve Together server. Connect to your game server and have fun playing!
