Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some Palworld server saves are being corrupted or the servers will constantly crash on start.

The current workaround is run fix_save.py using the code from this repo thanks to user HyperBCS

The instructions were posted on reddit

Simply drag Level.sav into fix_world.cmd or run the python script fix_save.py with the filename as the argument. If no --output argument was given, the file will be saved into a folder named "fixed". This script is largely untested so please make a backup and report any bugs.

Describe the solution you'd like I propose automating this to run on container start as a current workaround until palworld resolves the bug. As this is largely untested it should be optional and save backups should be automatically inferred or warning in documentation that when enabling it is highly recommend to also automate backups as it may corrupt the save.

Describe alternatives you've considered No alternatives currently known.
