Display MoreYou can switch your server safely to 1.13 from our side.
However as you already know minecraft switched the way how it handles worlds.
It may happen that your server performance is much worse than before because minecraft converts the world to the new format while you're playing on the server.
We recommend you to enable the force upgrade mode on https://aternos.org/worlds/ after switching to 1.13 but before starting the server for the first time.
This mode converts the complete world to the new format while your server is starting. This will increase the performance while playing on the server. However if your world is too big it may not complete and you have to go on with the normal converting process.
It may happen that the conversion fails and world data gets lost.
We strongly advise each user who wants to play 1.13 to create a backup on https://aternos.org/backups before switching to the new version.
can i do it after i loaded the world in 1.13 or it doesnt matter anymore?
yes after your loaded the world.

Yes you can also use the force upgrade mode after you've already started your world in 1.13.
It will then convert all chunks which were not converted yet.
So It doesn't make really sense to use force upgrade multiple times because there are no chunks left.
