- notes: all other characters must be off of the map at the time of reset (a message will appear showing any players on the map during the failed reset.) This will NOT reset any unique items, such as players apartments, in the case of unique items being on a map, it will cause them to be saved before the map is reset. You can also use the command in this syntax to reset the map you are currently standing on: 'reset .

+ To reset a unique map, access to the server file system is needed.  Make sure all items of value are retrieved from the map before implementing the reset, or they will be lost.  When the map owner says all is clear, consider the example of trying to reset a python guild map (/pup_land/guilds/purple_butterfly/hallofjoining).
+ 
+   * Use the reset command to reset the map path the same way you would a normal map.
+     * dm
+     * reset /pup_land/guilds/purple_butterfly/hallofjoining
+   * Find the unique map.    In this example, the server is installed in /usr/games/crossfire.  The unique map is a file named similarly to the in-game map path:   In this example, the server is installed in /usr/games/crossfire.v00
+     * Presumably there are cases where there might be multiple files with different numbered .vXX extension.  If there are more than one, make sure to identify the one to reset.
+     * For safety, make a backup of the unique map.
+   * Delete the unique map.
+     * rm -f /usr/games/crossfire/var/crossfire/unique-items/pup_land\@guilds\@purple_butterfly\@hallofjoining.v00
+   * One server admin suggests an additional reset of the map from within game, but, at least on one trunk server, this reports "No such map" after the server unique map file was deleted, and therefore, may not be needed.
