I had my server running on my personal gaming rig. i have built another computer than i can leave on 24 hours/day.
Whats the process of moving my server and its data to the new machine?
I'm hoping all I have to do is move my entire Evochron ELgacy Server folder over. . .

Yes, that's basically all you have to do. Just copy it over, then create a shortcut linking to the 3D or 2D version of the server program you want to run.
If you run the installer again on the new system, it will put the default universedata, factionmap, and text8.dat config files back in place, so you'll need to update those with the original configuration files if you want to restore/move that data over to the new system after running the installer.
