At one point you or your players may decide that it is time to start a new Terraria world. This will reset all of your current world progress. You can either change the name of your active world or simply delete the current world's save file.
# Deleting the World File

/worlds/directory and Delete the(WORLD NAME).wldfile. - Start your server.
# Changing the World Name

- Log in to your control panel and Stop your server.
- Navigate to the Config tab.
- Open the Terraria Server Properties and locate the World setting.
- Change World to a different world name.
