Ragnarok is a large official ARK map with varied biomes, caves, desert areas, and wyvern zones. Use this when you want the server to start directly on Ragnarok using the built-in map value.

  1. Back up the current world before switching to Ragnarok: Backing up and restoring world and player data on your ARK server.
  2. Open the server in your game control panel.
  3. Click Commandline Manager.

  4. Create a Ragnarok command line, or edit the selected one if this will be the server's main map: Creating a custom command line on your ARK server.
  5. On the command line form, enable Map and enter Ragnarok.

  6. Save the command line, select it from the list, and restart the service.

Ragnarok is a built-in map value, so you do not need to install a Workshop ID for it. If it loads the old world, the wrong command line is probably still selected.
