📋 About This Mod
Helps manage server performance by automatically unloading empty worlds and their chunks from memory, reducing resource consumption and improving overall server efficiency.
Features: - Automatic detection and unloading of empty worlds - Configurable delay before unloading - Selective world exclusion to protect critical worlds - Optional chunk unloading for memory optimization - Fine-grained control over unloading behavior
Configuration: ```yml # Delay before unloading an empty world (in seconds) unload-delay-seconds: 60
# Worlds that should NEVER be unloaded by the plugin. # The check logic will still examine these worlds when they go empty but # the plugin will not attempt to remove them from memory (see # unload-chunks-in-excluded below). excluded-worlds: - world - world_nether - world_the_end
# If true the plugin will attempt to unload every loaded chunk from a world # once it becomes empty. This can significantly reduce the server's # reported "loaded chunk" count, even for worlds that remain open. # WARNING: unloading chunks does not save them; any tile entities or # entities in those chunks will be discarded. Use with care. unload-chunks: true
# If unload-chunks is enabled and this option is true then chunks will be # unloaded even for worlds listed in excluded-worlds. By default excluded # worlds are left entirely alone. unload-chunks-in-excluded: true
# Controls whether the plugin is allowed to unload entire worlds when they # sit empty. Set this to false if you need worlds to remain loaded (for # example because players travel there frequently) but still want chunks # unloaded separately. The "excluded-worlds" list still applies to # prevent world unloading, but this flag makes the behaviour global. unload-worlds: false ```
