MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR WORLDS

PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP 

YOU CAN BREAK YOUR WORLD

But leave a comment if this managed to fix your world :3 

Anyway hi

So you accidentally installed a mod and you have tons of ? blocks in your world now ? 

Well fear not now you can remove them! 

after installing , loading into a world, the mod will create a modconfig called  ServerSideModRemover.json there you need to set the ModDomain , thats the mod ID you want to remove.

Radius is in blocks, so all Blocks in the radius of a player get scanned and will be replaced with air. its set to 1280 now. It usually will take your viewdistance depending whats smaller 

IntervalMs is set to 30s on standart, thats the frequency the replace is called

Wasloaded (will) save the World id and the explored chunks. As of now i only made a quick fix to only fill the explored chunks during a play session. 
This will mark all chunks youve explored already as patched so that the replace doesnt get called unnecessary.

well this works by the taking the replace distance / 32 and then subtract 2 

so a view distance of 128(standart) will mark 2 chunks, the one youre standing in and the next one. 

Best way to fix your wold is running a prune and then using this mod to remove the remaining blocks that were left in your base

Please remove this mod after usage to prevent breaking your worlds

How do i find the modid ? 

Enable dev settings and then extended debug 



Next the item has this funky name with code:ModId:ItemId




OR 

look into the modinfo of the mod youre trying to remove 

Will this cause lag ? 

- Not anymore 

Does this work on a server ? 

- Yes this was first tested on the Ironfall Server and helped me remove herbs and spices from the world which caused lag. The players didnt notice much lag with these settings. 

This broke my world can i fix it ? 

- Please tell me you made a backup ... ? 


When can I remove this mod ?

look into the server-main.log and search for this kind of message, if you keep exploring visited places and no more notifications are popping up then there shouldnt be many ? blocks left

[Notification] ServerSideModRemover: player SilverValkyrie scanned domain '{insertTheModID}' radius 128. matches=7
