#

should i do it automatically on ship deletion?

#

🤔

#

oh what

#

does this mean deleted ships technically still exist

but maybe find out why vs doesn't do it automatically already

scarlet trench
#

this isnt already a thing in game!!!???

#

no wonder my long time running world had over 8,000 shipyard .mca region files

#

yes this has to be added to be done automatically upon ship removal and upon deletion of the final block of any ship

#

if it can be some how

Okay then thx

I think it would not fix my too many ship problem

scarlet trench
#

omg

#

is this where the "received physics frame for ship id "blank" but ship with id "blank" does not exist!" or whatever that log spam is, is form?

seems like an oversight imo

#

i sure didnt like my region folder being enourmous

#

making more world take for ever to load and save

rotund beacon
#

this is not the main reason for either of those issues

#

The other way of deleting a ship, the survival way, is by removing all its blocks

#

So the blocks are already gone, but maybe VS could also delete the region files

tranquil plover
#

people do

#

bc if you get enough ships, you run out of space and they clip into each other

rotund beacon
#

How many is that, even?

#

Because I'm certain the plot allocations are non-overlapping

tranquil plover
#

they should be? but apperently not if ships have been deleted or something? i've personally had this issue, you just assemble a ship and part of an old deleted build appears in it upon assembly

rotund beacon
#

In my experience that only happens when

  • the server crashes sometime upon ship creation, and VS2 ship data becomes inconsistent
  • the ship.dat is deleted but not the region files
rain crater
#

Since the ship data keeps track of what plots can be used

#

It shouldn’t overlap if the data is correct

rotund beacon
#

I've confidently never had it happen otherwise

#

The only issue is that once it happens its difficult to recover since the ship.dat is not readable

rain crater
#

I’ve managed to read it

#

It’s a multi-step process though, rather annoying to do manually

rotund beacon
#

However, the region files are deterministically allocated so you can be sure that X failed ships means X chunks appearing on newly spawned ships

#

And you end up with a few thousand plots filled

rotund beacon
#

Oh, those

#

ive placed a block down shipified it with the vs ship creater and all of a sudden a redstone link from another ship appeared ontop of it

#

this was durring the porting of my world from 1.18.2 to 1.20.1

#

before i deleted the old shipyard regions

#

and vs data

rain crater
#

VS data doesn’t really like updating from 1.18 to 1.20

#

It probably got messed up then

rotund beacon
#

yes I've had that happen too

#

Pretty sure no one reports it anymore because most people are already on 1.20

Does this command work with every ship/world on default? Would be great for fixing my world. Also, does it delete everything from shipyard at once?

#

I don’t really know what pruning means, so maybe you could explain this a little?

#

And I agree that this is a nice thing to have
Even with "empty" region files the overhead of having theses files is still here

scarlet trench
#

i had over 8,000 shipyard region .mca files that were more than doubling the size of my region folder by themselves alone đź’€

#

thats over 4,000,000 chunks

it's just save file bloating
