#(cilpsthepu) World on demand problem

Hello,
I am making a minigame where 'temporary' worlds are needed. So you use the world for max 4 hours (average probably around 30 minutes) to play the minigame and then get sent back to the lobby. Ideally I would create for each game, a new world so for example minigame_world_<game id> and minigame_world_nether_<game id>. But when creating a world on demand, I get a huge lag spike which would be a problem for other players that are playing on the same server but in another minigame world.

Is there a better way to create worlds on demand? Or should I make like a lot of worlds on server prestart and hope they don't run out?
And giving each game their own server isn't really a option as well, that would make everything a lot more complex and it would be inefficient.

I hope I made things clear but feel free to ask if I missed something.

Hi I'm AutoThreadBot! Don't mind me, I'll just be adding the helper team to this thread so they can see it. A human will get to you soon.

have u tried ~waitable? first thing that came to my mind

Unfortunately only the copy_from command is waitable.

#

And I do want random seeds, it gets boring if there are only a few seeds...

yea thats weird tbh

have u thought about making it the same world always, but setting the border center randomly?

I looked into it and it seems like a really good solution that is perfect for my problem... But I didn't find a way to use Slime worlds without having to use a fork of Paper. And their fork doesn't really look stable. It seems like it is not really actively maintained as the latest commit is from over a month ago (and their 1.21.5 release is experimental). There is a plugin that has a class modifier so you can still use Paper but that is over 3 years old. It is just a overwhelming mess of forks of forks etc. But do let me know if you found a good Slime world plugin or if the fork of Paper is fine and stable.

I use ASP, its maintained pretty well, 1.21.5 is experimental due to paper not updating dataconverter to 1.21.5 yet

Well it works but how do you interact with it using Denizen? Do you just use the commands with execute as_server?

After some testing, I found out that Slime worlds can't generate from a (random) seed. It can only copy/template a world and optimize it for storage. Unfortunately I didn't found a plugin for in memory worlds or anything. I found 0 solutions to create a world faster than vanilla. So maybe I will just use Scta's solution of setting the spawn of the world randomly, although this does allow players to meet each other and would make the whole script a lot more complex.

Eventually I solved the problem by creating a separate server. And if a server needs a world it can run a task script with DepenizenBungee. Then it will create the world (with the regular createworld command) in a shared directory with the server that needed the world (with the Linux command mount).
