Wiping the world removes the current Minecraft map and lets the server generate a fresh one. Back up the server first if there is any chance you will need the old world again.

Reset the world

  1. Stop the server.
  2. Open Files in Ptero.
  3. Delete or rename the world folder. The default Java folder is usually world.
  4. If your server has separate Nether or End folders, such as world_nether and world_the_end, remove those too if you want a full reset.
  5. Start the server to generate a fresh world.

Modded servers may use different world folder names. Check server.properties or the modpack documentation if you are not sure.
