In this guide, you’ll learn how to set up a flat world on your Hytale server step by step. Whether you’re hosting for friends or managing a larger community, the process is straightforward once you know where to look. By the end, you’ll have a flat world ready to customize with your own structures, mods, and gameplay ideas.
