Question Update configuration files post-update

[thomas09555]

I've noticed significant variations between configuration files on a fresh server (1.18) and an older one (1.8 -> ...->1.18), which has only been updated. Would it be beneficial to remove the server.properties, spigot.yml, and paper.yml files, or would it potentially disrupt my server's functionality?

It is recommended that you do nothing as the paper.yml file will be automatically migrated to the config/paper-global.yml file

Wow, thanks for the heads up! It sounds like I don't need to stress about those files. It's a relief to know that the paper.yml file will just do its thing and migrate itself to the config/paper-global.yml file. Saves me a ton of hassle! Thanks again for the smooth advice!

It's interesting the insight, but I'm not fully sold. I think it's important to double-check and maybe even back up those files just in case. It's better to be safe than sorry, right?

Saves me a ton of hassle! Thanks again for the smooth advice!
