Summary
A server wipe in The Front refers to the complete reset of a game server, erasing all player progress, structures, and tamed creatures. Server administrators often undertake this action to maintain server performance, remove outdated content, or provide a fresh start for players. Players must brace for losing their in-game possessions and the opportunity to rebuild and compete on an even playing field with others after a server wipe.
| Note | Make backups locally to save any necessary files. Once the server reaches the server wipe date, it will reset the server back to zero. |
