How to Reset Your American Truck Simulator Server

Last updated: September 18, 2026

Resetting your American Truck Simulator server reinstalls it from scratch, giving you a clean set of files. This is useful when the server is badly broken or you want to start fresh. A reset clears your current files, so back up anything you want to keep first.

Step 1: Back Up Your Files

Download these from the server's data folder with SFTP, or save a panel backup if your plan includes one:

  • server_config.sii - server name, player limit, token, and moderators.
  • server_packages.sii and server_packages.dat - your mod and DLC manifest.
  • Any custom files you added to the server.
Important: A reset deletes your config and mod manifest. Make sure your backup has finished before you continue.

Step 2: Reinstall the Server

  1. Log in to the NolimitHost Game Panel, select your ATS server, and stop it from the Console page.
  2. Go to Configuration > Advanced > Reinstall Server and confirm.
  3. Wait for the reinstall to finish. The server files are downloaded again and custom files are cleared.

Step 3: Restore Your Setup

  1. Upload your backed-up server_config.sii and server_packages.sii / .dat back to the data folder.
  2. Confirm your server_logon_token is still set. If not, re-add it - see Create a GSLT.
  3. Start the server and confirm it loads with the correct name and settings.
Tip: If you only need to fix one setting, edit that file in Files instead of a full reset. To change version rather than wipe everything, see Update Your Server.
