Hello everyone!
I'm new here, so please be kind to me, hehe!
I'm programming a software in Python to perform a soft wipe or soft reset. But I'm having difficulties deleting the correct areas from the map based on the location of mod safehouses or safezones (admin panel), even after identifying the areas using map_meta.bin and map_*.bin, the projected areas are still being deleted.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you for your time!

I might suggest asking in #mod_development for modding related questions

@brazen saffron Hi, thanks for replying!
Since it's not a Lua mod, I thought it would be better to post it in this section.
I'll post it there, thank you!

That's a cool problem of yours. I'm new to the game, I've never stopped so learn how map changes are stored into save files up until 10 minutes ago. I was thinking, instead of deleting everything exept your favorite files regarding your bases and loot. Why don't you move those files in another directory (folder), you wipe the rest of them and then moving back after loading a new map. Also I don't use Python for this kind of work, I'm more accustomed with shell commands, so make sure what your u using to move the files back rewrites the new files into the saved portion you want to import from your previous saves
Also I was asking a chatbot AI somthing about it and apparently there are others files you shouldn't delete from your saves. In case you should ask yourself because I can't remembere all of them
