I am on Linux Mint, and am using Forge 1.10.2-12.18.3.2185. When I click on the "Create Server" button, it creates it, and when I started the Forge executive file, it runs, but it saves the files to my /home folder, and not to the folder I have the Forge executive in. How do I fix this?

Picture URLs: Home Folder  Modded Folder

How are you launching the jar file?

Are you talking about the jar file?

If so, I am using Java 8.

Yes, I am talking about the jar file...

What are you doing to run it?

Sorry, I meant the Forge jar file, not just "jar file"

And do you mean the Forge jar file in my modded folder or the forge jar file to create the server?

My question stays the same.

How are you running it?

I am running it using Java 8.

I'm sorry, but I'm not really sure what you mean.

You decide you want to run the server. Which actions do you perform on your mouse and keyboard to do so?

Because I am on Linux, I have to go to properties and change both the server and forge file in the "Modded Server" folder to run as an executive. I then run the forge file, and it places the eula.txt, server.properties, etc. in my home folder, as you can see in my pictures.

The forge and server jar files' locations are set to the "Modded Server" folder. How do I run that command line?

I am new to Linux, and I have no knowledge of how to use the Terminal, so I'm not sure what to do here (sorry).

I think even though my server jar and forge jar are in separate folders than the server.properties (etc.), it will still run the server (as I just checked).

Ok. Thank you for helping me figure out why it wouldn't work the first time.
