🌱 Step 4: Set the new seed

Find the following line:

level-seed=

➡️ Add your seed code after the equals sign. For example:

🗑️ Step 5: Delete the old world

The new seed only applies when generating a new world. So, you need to remove the existing one:

1. Delete the world, world_nether, and world_the_end folders.
2. Right-click each folder and select Delete or use the trash can icon.

🔁 Step 6: Restart your server

Go back to the overview and click Start or Restart.

A brand new world will now be generated using your seed!
