01DIRECT ANSWER
Direct answer
Open the room settings, use Select Save, choose an available Save file slot, and select Load before creating and starting the room. A reviewed 2026 video shows Autosave and Save file 1–3 in the Choose Save file window. Reloading Save file 1 restored two Sandbox-spawned vehicles, although one position shifted slightly. Inventory, loose items, full world state, and multiplayer ownership are still not confirmed.

04 / PLAYER STEPS
Follow the demonstrated path
Each sourced detail stays within what the linked record actually shows; open questions remain labelled.
- 01
- 02
Choose an available file and Load it
Select an available Save file row, then choose Load. The video demonstrates Save file 1; it also shows that an additional slot can prompt a Robux purchase, so do not assume every slot is already available.
- 03
Create and start the room
Return to room settings after the file shows Selected, choose Create, and then Start game. The demonstrated order matters: select the file before creating the room.
- 04
Make one reversible change
Place one or two disposable Sandbox vehicles and record their positions. This mirrors the public demonstration without risking a valuable survival run.
- 05
Reload the same save file
Leave normally, select the same Save file, create and start the room again, and compare the recorded state. At 02:05, both demonstrated vehicles return; one is slightly displaced with its wheels partly buried.
05 / SUCCESS CRITERIA
What counts as a confirmed result
- The chosen row visibly changes to Selected before room creation.
- The room is created and started after the save file is selected.
- The same save file is selected on the next session.
- The report names the exact state that returned and any position or wheel shift.
06 / TROUBLESHOOTING
If the expected result does not appear
The slot opens a purchase prompt
Cancel unless you intentionally want the extra slot. Use an already available slot; the guide does not require a purchase.
The room returns empty
Check that the file showed Selected before both room creations. Repeat with one disposable vehicle and record every menu state.
Vehicles return in a slightly different position
Treat persistence and exact placement as separate results. The reviewed demonstration also shows a small post-load placement issue.
