Swap Games - Switch Between Games on Your Subscription
Switch between any games in your plan group at no extra cost, by deleting the server in a slot and creating a new one in it. Your subscription, billing cycle, and payment method stay the same.
How Changing a Slot’s Game Works
A slot in your Server Bundle is not tied to a game. You can run any game in your plan group in it, and change which one at any time, without a new subscription and without paying anything extra.
There is no in-place "swap" button, and nothing converts one game into another. Changing the game means deleting the server that is in the slot and creating a new one in the freed slot with the game you want. The dashboard says as much when a bundle is full: "All slots in use - delete a server to switch games".
Your subscription, billing cycle, slot count and payment method are untouched by any of this. Deleting a server frees its slot; it does not cancel or refund anything.
Plan Groups
Every bundle belongs to a game group, and only the games in that group can be created in its slots. The Create New Server page names the group and says so: "Only games in your <group> group are shown. You can switch between these games anytime."
The games in each group may change as we add new titles — the dropdown on that page is always the current list.
Moving to a different group means a different plan. There is no way to move a bundle from one group to another from the panel; open a support ticket if that is what you need.
What Happens When You Delete and Recreate
Deleting the server does all of this, in order: it stops the game and removes the whole instance directory from the host — game files, saves, logs, configuration and mods — releases its port block, removes its FTP/SFTP account and its firewall rules, and frees the bundle slot.
Creating the replacement then reserves capacity, assigns a fresh port block, downloads the new game’s server files, writes that game’s default settings and leaves the server stopped so you can configure it before anyone joins. The state goes draft, then provisioning, then stopped.
How long the download takes depends entirely on the game. Nothing starts the new server for you — press Start in the status bar when you are ready.
The new server gets a new port block, so its address is not the old one. Take the address from the Overview tab and give players the new one.
Data Preservation
Deleting a server deletes its files from the host. It cannot be undone, and the confirmation dialog says so.
Its backups do not come back with it either. Backups belong to the server that made them, and a server you delete is gone from the panel — so the new server you create in the same slot starts with an empty Backups tab and no way to reach the old server’s backups.
To keep the world, save it to your Vault before you delete the server. When the account owner deletes a server, the panel asks "Do you want to move the save into your Vault?", and Save to Vault, then delete saves it first. A Vault save belongs to your account, so it stays after the server is deleted, for 12 months from the day it was saved. When you come back to that game, create its server again and start it from the save. The whole flow, there and back, is in Switching Games and Keeping Your World.
A save loads only onto a server of exactly the same game. Nothing moves a world from one game to another — the file layouts have nothing in common. The Vault keeps the old world for when you return to its game.
How to Do It, Step by Step
1. On the Dashboard, find the server’s card inside its plan and click "Delete". When the panel asks about your Vault, choose Save to Vault, then delete to keep the world, or Delete without saving. Either way the slot is freed once the server is deleted, and this cannot be undone.
2. The plan now shows a free slot and a "+ Add Server" button. Click it.
3. On Add Server to Plan, pick the new game from the Game dropdown, give the server a name, and click "Add Server". If your Vault holds saves of that game, Start from a Vault save lets you start from one instead of a new world.
4. Watch the card on the Dashboard. It reads "Setting up" ("Your server is being set up."), then "Installing" while the game files download, then settles as Offline. Adjust anything you want on the Settings tab, then press Start.
If there is no Delete button on the card, your account role does not carry the delete permission — the account owner can do it, or open a support ticket.
