Forge server user data manipulating

[szonek]

I'm running dedicated server with forge 1.8.9-11.15.1.1722 and I'm using 2 computers alternately, I'd want to use same user data for both computers but by default i have completely separate data. How to paste 1 player's data onto another, so I'd update it every time i switch computers?

Player data is stored in the playerdata directory of the save, with each file name being the UUID of that file's player.

 

If both computers are on the same network, you can probably use symbolic links to link either the playerdata directories or the individual player files.

 

Otherwise you may be able to use a service like DropBox, but that will probably require using a third party application or moving the playerdata directory or the individual player files into the DropBox directory and creating symbolic links in the original location.
