World Reset to original?

Hello! I'm making a minigame plugin and I want a world named, arena_ship, to be unloaded to a state of which it isn't destroyed. So kinda like reseting it. Any ideas?

 

@frogman6102
first of all, make sure autosave is disabled in the world you want to restore.
When the game is done, unload the world without saving.
load it again. It should be fine In any way keep a backup of the world

 

@mine-care What code could I use for this? I don't have a clue upon how to unload and load it again?

@Skionz Doesn't work. It reloads a whole nother world every single time the server ends, even if the unloadWorld method isn't called???

Code:

public static void unloadWorld(String worldname){
       
       
        World w = Bukkit.getWorld(worldname);
       
        Bukkit.unloadWorld(w, false);
       
       
       
        WorldCreator wc = new WorldCreator(worldname);
        wc.createWorld();
   
    }

 

@frogman6102 It needs a delay between the unloading and the loading.
and when you are unloading it you may have a problem with it because if theres still a player in the world or an entity like a firework it might not reset the map.

You're right, when there's still a player in that world. Unfortunately that resource wont take care of that. Be sure to teleport all the players out of that particular world (and to be safe you can loop over it's loaded chunks and call .unloadChunk(), but that might be done by unloadWorld). You can double check if a world unloaded successfully since .unloadWorld() returns a boolean success.

 

@Funergy Cool! I have it down and ready. But, I have one issue. Will this delete everything? I need an arena to regenerate. Will this happen or will it regenerate a whole new world without regards to my previous build? And how do I load up the world again?
