Back up worlds

Windrose is an Early Access game, so players naturally worry about progress wipes. The developer stance has been that planned wipes are not the goal, but technical reality can always force changes.

What That Means

You can invest in a world, but do it with backups and patch awareness. Dedicated groups should back up saves before major updates.

Server Advice

If you host a persistent world, announce maintenance windows and preserve backups before experimenting with configuration changes.
