For help regarding Aternos, we recommend you to visit our support center.
We won't change that due to multiple, mainly technical, reasons. And if your connection is so bad that you can not even download a world I wonder why you are even able to play on our servers.
Yes it is, yes plugins can touch them.
I mean, but a plugin can't touch a file it doesn't have perms for can it?
And I can play on your servers, but sometimes a modded world can get large :p
And um...correct me if im wrong, but isn't the server timeout in server.prop? Can plugins/mods even touch that?
I understand what you mean but I don't really see the sense why we need that.
Having a STATIC URL to download from would be great. If you cancel a browser download or it stops because a connection cut out, the download would have to restart. Which can quickly become a nightmare on a slow connection. Having a static url (which is implied by ftp) would be great because, with tools like `wget` on linux, or similar on windows, you could just start from where you left off. (aka. wget's -c option.)

And another reason would be to download it on a VPS, i.e Google Compute Engine.
On another note. Programs like FileZilla are MUCH easier to use, letting us edit/upload individual mod config files locally, instead of using the web editor.
I don't see why you would want a third option to back up your world, I mean.. you can literally back it up every 10 Seconds if that's you want, you can download the file and save it in another file.
A third option so so, would basically then turn out useluss
And google drive isnt unlimited. For instance, in the drive that is linked to aternos, I don't have mu free space. :p
You can download it on the worlds page, what's the problem?
1) Partial downloads.
2) I'd love to be able to load it on Google Compute
When have you ever seen a mob in a team not kill players on their team in vanilla? =/
Ok. I get the security reasons, but it'd at least be nice to have an address we could ftp/scp to so that we could locally back up our worlds. FTP supports partial downloads, so if someone is trying to download a large world, and their internet goes out, a browser would just whine and make you restart. Tools like wget let you start from where you left off, which would be great. I'm assuming your servers run linux, so I don't get where the difficulty is. Non-world files could be marked *rwxr--r--, and world files and other could be marked *rwxrw-rw-. If a user only modified world files, they'd never be able to do the things that are a security risk.
