Server Version

This server is running Paper version 1.21-38-master@1f5db50 (2024-06-27T20:15:58Z) (Implementing API version 1.21-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

Bug Description

Upon Launching the server or using MV reload in 1.21 paper, it will reset the world config to defaults. It doesnt matter if you mess with it in the config file or use /mvm set it will reset whatever changes you made when using the commads or changing the config, with the server open or not. With more testing it seems most setting works but the KeepSpawnInMemory does not change when trying to set the property, and will reset itself on server launch, even if you set it manually when the server is shut down.

the only setting I see not resetting is Gamemode for some odd reason.

Steps to reproduce

1. Make a configuration change in Worlds config file.
2. Launch server, the config with be reset

Agreements

• [X] I have searched for and ensured there isn't already an open or resolved issue(s) regarding this.
• [X] I was able to reproduce my issue on a freshly setup and up-to-date server with the latest version of Multiverse plugins with no other plugins and with no kinds of other server or client mods.

All my keepSpawnInMemory entries get reset to true on server load. running mvm set keepspawninmemory false [world] does NOT change them back.

mvm set keepSpawnInMemory false creative [08:14:00 INFO]: Success! Property keepSpawnInMemory was set to false

[Multiverse-Core] Version 4.3.12 (API v24) Enabled - By dumptruckman, Rigby, fernferret, lithium3141 and main--

( same happens with Multiverse-Core Version: 4.3.1-b861)

Paper version 1.20.6-147-ver/1.20.6@e41d44f (2024-06-17T19:24:35Z) (Implementing API version 1.20.6-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

In the logs, this happens at about the time the Multiverse-Core message shows up, or abot when the message "World(s) loaded." appears.

Changing entries to false in the config, and then manually running a mvm set to false changes ALL worlds to true in the config. Not just the world I'm editing.

I can reproduce this, and it's quite an issue if you can't set keepSpawnInMemory=false anymore and have a lot of worlds that are all ticking (tested with multiverse-core 4.3.12 and mc paper-1.20.6-148)

[NeverGrowUp]

In regards to OPs issue, i cant reproduce issue with most world settings when using the /mvm set command. Nor can i reproduce when stopping server and changing config values in worlds.yml.

However can confirm keepSpawnInMemory resets to true.

This has been an issue since 1.20.5 (maybe earlier), but can be individually rectified by adding:

spawn:
  keep-spawn-loaded: false

into the individual worlds paper-world.yml file.

paper-world.yml

What if the server core I am in does not have paper-world.yml?

Not everyone uses the Paper core

[zax71]

We mainly support Paper. There’s no reason to be using Spigot any more

[timriker]

How can I confirm if the keep-spawn-loaded worked or not? I changed keep-spawn-loaded to false in config/paper-world-defaults.yml and edited all the keepSpawnInMemory to false in Multiverse-Core/worlds.yml while the server was stopped.

I restart the server and Multiverse-Core/worlds.yml is re-written with all the keepSpawnInMemory set to true when Multiverse-Core loads all the worlds.

To my knowledge, since version 1.20.5+, the option "keep-spawn-loaded: false" seems to have been removed from Pape

This could probably also be achieved with the new spawn chunks gamerule

This could probably also be achieved with the new spawn chunks gamerule

Gamerule keeps resetting after each server restart when using MV.

[zax71]

Are you setting it with /mv gamerule?

[timriker]

At the console:

mvrule spawnChunkRadius 0 creative

Does seem to work, however keepSpawnInMemory still shows as true. My guess is that this setting is ignored in 1.20.5+

[ScrapMetalGolem]

Using mvrule spawnChunkRadius 0 [world] returns a success message, but after a server restart the chunks are loaded again, according to cmi /status (and just by seeing how much memory is used, but that doesn't really qualify as proof).

Same result as using the /gamerule command with multiverse installed.

When I use /gamerule without multiverse installed, I get the desired result: /status reports 0 chunks loaded per world.

[PovilasLT]

Are you setting it with /mv gamerule?

Same result with both /gamerule and /mv gamerule.

[MinecraftEarthVillage]

道理我都懂😂但是什么时候作者大人能修复啊？ 我现在靠着一个自制的插件，在服务器刚刚启动时TPS低于阈值执行/mvm 将区块卸载，但是这会导致每次TPS低于16都会执行一次

[cgaffga]

are there any news on this issue? Server keeps lagging as all spawns stay loaded and ticking :( any workaround? tx

Did you see this, as an alternative.

In my setup, at least, this config option seems to be completely ineffective. I'll have a go at using it on a bare server soon and see if it does anything there.

Update: tested it on a server (purpur 2298 1.21.1) with no plugins; the number of chunks loaded in the end (only world I changed the setting for) is only 10, compared to the 49 chunks per world normally, but still it's not zero. Loaded chunks for the nether on this brand new server are only three, and I didn't even change any settings there.

[shimloaf]

This is happening on my server as well. /mv gamerule spawnChunkRadius set to 0 solves the loaded chunks issue until a server restart, then resets the property back to 2 automatically. Same with the keepSpawnInMemory property, though the /mvmset doesn't actually even change the property at all. I've edited the actual worlds.yml file while the server is offline, and that also gets instantly reset when the server is restarted. The "keep-spawn-loaded" fix doesn't actually reduce the loaded chunks for me ostensibly at all. In servers with a lot of worlds, this creates a boat load of loaded chunks, and is pushing me over my allocated RAM constantly. Any updates on this/workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

Edit: My stupid duct-tape solution was to run the gamerule command for every world at server start with a plugin that runs commands automatically. It works... but a proper solution would probably be better!

[DavidDoesCode]

Using /mv modify set keepspawninmemory false world does appear to unload the chunks when I check with /paper chunkinfo

But when I use /mvinfo world it shows keepSpawnInMemory as true. When restarting the server, it's true and loads.

[benwoo1110]

Seems like there is a change in the way it works in 1.20+, there is a new gamerule spawnChunkRadius that you can use. Can people affected by this issue try /mv gamerule spawnChunkRadius 0 <worldname>

[zax71]

This could probably also be achieved with the new spawn chunks gamerule

@benwoo1110 this has already been tried

[timriker]

mvgamerules grief

in the list I see "spawnChunkRadius: 2"

mvgamerule spawnChunkRadius 0 grief [22:44:56 INFO]: Success! Gamerule spawnChunkRadius was set to 0.

mvgamerules shows it changed. Restarting the server sets all world spawnChunkRadius back to 2.

What does spawnRadius do? that's also in the list set to 10.

[benwoo1110]

I have report the bug to spigot, let see how it goes https://hub.spigotmc.org/jira/browse/SPIGOT-7915

[benwoo1110]

Update: I have tested the fix in spigot and it works, now is up to paper to update upstream... hopefully soon

any news on this? Change has not been pushed pushed upstream yet. Does anybody know how long this usually takes?

is this commit what you were waiting for??

[benwoo1110]

Yep, looks like it's fixed then
