Custom Commands to edit, create and save your own Instances

Description

By default (as of 17th January 2026) Hytale doesn't allow us to edit instances (it is hardcoded)

 

This mod allow you to :

  1. Duplicate existing instances in your own Pack
  2. Create totally new Instances
  3. Save your changes on updated Instances

 

 

Command list :

/customInstances <InstanceName>

Create a totally new Instance (chose the default worldgen by default but it can be changed in the files)

Can be added into the Pack you chose by using "--pack <packname>"

Can erase already existing instances by using "--force true"

/custominstancescopy <InstanceNameToCopy> <CreatedInstanceName>

Copy an existing Instance from and to a Pack you decide

Can be selected from any Pack by using "--fromPack <packname>"

Can be copied to any Pack by using "--toPack <packname>"

Can erase already existing instances by using "--force true"

/custominstancessave

Instances normally don't save the changes you made to them but with this command you can add blocks to them and then save all changes

Use /custominstancessave --toPack <packname> --name <instancename> --force true

To make this command work, you have to join an existing instance that is NOT in the hytale pack by using the vanilla "/instances" command. Once you joined your instance and made changes, use it to save those changes.







Example Workflow :

  1. Be sure you have a Pack created in the asset editor
  2. Duplicate the existing "Dungeon_Outlander" Instance with command "/custominstancescopy Dungeon_Outlander <MyNewTestInstance> --toPack=<YourCompletePackName>"
  3. This new instance should be seen using the "/instances" command
  4. Join this Instance by selecting it and clicking spawn
  5. Make any changes you desire
  6. Use the command "/custominstancessave --toPack=<YourCompletePackName> --name=<MyNewTestInstance> --force=true"
  7. Use "/instances exit" to leave this instance
  8. Join this Instance by selecting it and clicking spawn after using "/instances" command
  9. You should see the changes you did
