Backing up saves is a must must must. In fact, I keep all my saves on a portable hard drive and copy them to it every time. And basically, that's how you do it.

Create a backup folder somewhere and simply copy your 'player' folder from your starbound folder to where you want it.How the files work?Each player will have 3 files in the player folder (.player,.shipworld, and.metadata). So if you have 3 characters, you'll have 9 total files. Any more than that and it is probably leftover save files from previous versions I'd guess.

Login with your three characters then close the game. In the folder sort it by date. The order of the files by date will be the reverse order in which you logged into each character.

You can also just login one at a time to keep track of what savename goes with which character name.They will look something like this (different combo of numbers/letters for each character):6b4a027869a90ea2719f09b11bfd4d9f.metadata6b4a027869a90ea2719f09b11bfd4d9f.shipworld6b4a027869a90ea2719f09b11bfd4d9f.playerThat is all for one character.The shipworld is just your ship. So if you delete that, your character will still be there, and when you load him in, he'll have a fresh ship. If you like a ship layout you made with one character and want to use it for all the rest, you can actually copy over that shipworld file to other characters by renaming said file to match the other character's name. I do this with every character I make so I don't have to remake my ship. I also do this so I can use a Glitch ship as a human It will also save the items stored in your ship.

Useful if you decide you want to reroll a race.What I like to do (to keep my ridiculous character save names straight) is name a backup folder with each character's name (Vandrick, Banerg, etc). Then when can tell which save belongs to which character.Anywho, just make sure you keep your characters in order. I can't tell you how many times I've renamed the wrong file to the wrong character lol. I'd get in the habit of copying the files over after each play session.PS: The universe files are in the 'universe' folder. There are quite a lot of them. I just copy the whole folder and don't mess with much else. Backing up saves is a must must must.

Click to expand.Thanks very much for answering!I knew how to back them up but I didn't know how to tell them apart for each character.Just if your or someone else is willing I've got one more question. For some reason I have 192 files for 3 characters and I've only played one version (not player Enraged Koala yet). I've got 3 files for each character as you talked about in your post (ship, metadata and player) but I have 183 TMP files.

I have one of them for character 1, four of them for character 2 and 178 of them for character 3. They look like one of these:a484817defb4db66602a0db414684a6a.metadataRF1ef8c12.TMPa484817defb4db66602a0db414684a6a.playerRF1a12469.TMPa484817defb4db66602a0db414684a6a.shipworldRF1bca60.TMPand either have.metadata,.player or.shipworld in the middle as you can see. Do you know what they are?

Are they important? And What do they do?If you or anyone else can answer this thanks very much, if not I'll just back them up anyway.EDIT: Love your avatar. Never ran into those in that directory before. All I can assume is that in fact they are temp files left over from either saving or such.

There really only should be 3 files for each character.My assumption is that it is fine to delete those file just from the extension name being tmp. Temp files are well known for when accessed the computer has them as page filing or similar when it uses the hard drive for memory instead of ram, if not both. So I would just backup the ones without tmp to another directory, and possibly move those tmp to another directory to see if characters still work. If they do then by all means it is safe to delete.hope that helps some.

Ship World File Starbound Free

There's no way to generate a new universe, as each character on your PC will share the same planets. This means any buildings you create can be visited by any character, not just the one that built it.

You could also place chests full of things for your other characters to pick up and use for themselves.Given that there are millions, if not billions, of different planets, all you need to is travel to one you haven't been to before. Every system has a moon where you can collect more than enough fuel to travel anywhere in the universe. There's no way to make a new universe for each character in the game, but there is a workaround you can use. Amongst the folders where Starbound is installed on your computer, you can find a folder called 'universe' and a folder called 'player.' These folders do exactly what it says on the tin: one saves all your universe data, like all the planets you've visited, and the other stores the data for all of your characters, including also their ships and inventories (but, obviously, not any structures or storage they have on a planet - that's all in the 'universe' folder).

Because these folders are separate, you could, for example, delete your 'universe' folder, and still keep your characters. If you did this and then launched Starbound it would create a brand-new random universe to replace the delted one, and you'd be able to explore it with your existing characters, and whatever items they had on their ships.Of course you don't have to delete your current universe. You could move its folder somewhere else, or re-name it, and it'd have the same effect - the game wouldn't recognize it, and would create a new universe in its place. And later you could restore it to its original name/location and get your old universe back.By using this method you can have a separate universe for each character. Just switch the universes manually, by swapping around different 'universe' folders before you launch the game. It's a bit annoying, but totally doable. Incidentally, given how easy it is to do, I am guessing (though this is just a guess) that such a feature will eventually be added into the game - things seem to be set up for it.

Human Ship Starbound

Starbound is still in development, after all. Since all the characters on your pc share the same universe, stuff you leave on the planet will be available for all your characters going there.So if your first character exhausted the resources of the base planet, you could go haverst some in another system and then bring them back to the base planet and leave them there (in a chest, for instance) so that your second character can come and get them. This would allow your second character to repair the ship and travel to a different location and realy start over there.
