Each player connected to your server will have a file that contains their inventory data as well as their location. Sometimes, a server issue can cause you to need to delete a player’s data file. Minecraft servers After deleting their data file, players will be able connect as though they were a brand new player.
Follow these steps to successfully reset individual player data on your server:
Before proceeding with any tutorial that requires manipulating server files, always have your server offline to prevent corruption!
1. First, we need the player's UUID. To reset your data, go to https://namemc.com/.
The Universally Unique Identifier, also known as UUID, is a unique identifier that each player receives when they join a server. This allows for easy access to player information, item storage, and access to player-related information.
1. Once you have located your player, a UUID is displayed under their name. Similar to what is shown in the below image. Notepad/sticky note: Write down the UUID to refer to later.
2. Now, go to your ServerMiner Control Panel. Click File Manager. If you are familiar with FTPs, the following steps can be repeated on FileZilla.
3. Enter the folder of whichever world you currently have loaded onto your server. To find out which world you are currently using, go to the Minecraft Worlds tab in your ServerMiner Control Panel.
4. Navigate to the playerdata folder and enter it, this is where all the data (Inventory/Positions) of the players who join your server are stored.
5. If there aren’t enough files, you can use the shortcut Ctrl+F to search for the player UUID. Refer to the UUID you have written down to find it. You can also use the shortcut Ctrl+F for searching for the UUID. Once you've found it click the checkbox, and hit the Delete key.
Congratulations! You've reset the data for the player. You can now open your server and allow that player to join it! They will then spawn in the world without any items in their inventory.
