ShadowEdit

A name for this server. Reserved for several servers sharing one database: this version does not use it yet (see STORAGE below).

The language used when no better one is known.

Every player sees their own client language, when that file exists.

How much time per tick, at most, for EVERYTHING this plugin does.

Below this the plugin stops completely. The promise.

Above this it uses the full budget.

With this many players online the player weight is at its maximum.

How much players count. 0 = not at all, 1 = a great deal.

Multiplier when the server is empty: pregeneration uses the machine.

The compute pool. -1 = (cores of this machine) - 1.

A hard ceiling, even when the budget would allow more.

The selection wand. Left click = first point, right click = second.

Right click with this teleports you to where you are looking.

The item that brushes answer to when the brush does not name one.

The item that sculpt mode answers to.

The default block limit per operation, for players who have no shadowedit.limit.blocks.<n> permission. -1 = no limit. The permission wins when a player has one; //limit can only lower it.

Above this an operation asks for confirmation first.

A single brush click may not exceed this.

And may not be larger than this. Also a permission: shadowedit.limit.radius.<n>

How many undo steps are kept per player. The free edition keeps at most 25 whatever this says; with a key, up to 200.

Above this many blocks an edit goes to a compressed file in data/history/ at once. Smaller ones follow when the server stops (and ten minutes after the player leaves), so //undo works after a restart too. Chest contents, signs and spawners are kept as well.

NONE | DEFERRED | IMMEDIATE The server relights every block it writes on its own. This only re-sends the touched chunks to the players who see them, once the operation is over, for clients that still show old shadows: DEFERRED sends eight chunks every two ticks, IMMEDIATE all at once, NONE nothing (the least bandwidth).

At the end of an edit, give water and lava their flow update and let sand, gravel and concrete powder fall, a few per tick (at most 20,000 blocks per edit). false = everything stays exactly as placed, the way WorldEdit leaves it.

The most blocks one operation may read at once (the selection plus the margin its neighbours need). Above this the command refuses and says so: split the work, or raise this if the server has the memory (about 4 bytes per block, plus 48 per changed block).

How long an operation must take before the boss bar appears.

The selection outline, drawn with particles and never with blocks: a plugin that draws with blocks is the one that leaves invisible barriers on somebody's server forever.

How often the outline is redrawn. A dust particle lives a little over a second, so redrawing twice a second only draws the same outline on top of itself - and every point is one packet.

The ceiling on points for the whole box, spread over the twelve edges in proportion to how long each one is.

Every point is one packet to one player. This used to be 600 at 10 ticks, which is 1200 packets a second for every builder holding a selection - on a build server with twenty of them, 24000 a second of nothing but outline. Raise it if your selections are huge and you have the bandwidth; the outline does not get more readable, only denser.

How far a point is still worth sending, in blocks.

The client does not draw dust past about 32 blocks, so anything beyond that is a packet sent for something nobody can see. 40 leaves a margin, because the cut is measured from the player's feet.

How far a wand or a brush reaches.

The ceiling for the magic (connected blocks) selection.

The short WorldEdit style aliases: //set, //pos1, //brush.

auto  - register them, unless WorldEdit or FAWE is installed
force - register them anyway
false - never

"auto" is the right answer: a server that already has WorldEdit should not have its commands taken away.

How many parsed schematics stay in memory. Browsing a folder of a thousand files does not fill it: this is a count, not a size.

A file larger than this is not a structure, it is a map.

Which entities may be recreated by a paste. A .schem arrives from the internet by way of an admin who did not write it: without this list, one could make a hundred primed creepers appear.

Reopen the managed worlds at start-up, before anybody else opens them without a generator.

Unload a managed world with nobody in it. 0 to never.

A border for new worlds. 0 = none.

Worlds where nothing may be edited, whatever the permissions say.

A deleted world is renamed, not removed: this many days to change your mind before the folder really goes.

The void world: a glass platform at spawn, so nobody falls the moment they arrive.

Pick up again where a restart left off. A paused job stays paused.

Chunks asked for per tick with the full budget. They are generated asynchronously by Paper, like Chunky does: the main thread only hears that they are ready. The governor scales this down as TPS drop or players join, up to 16x on an empty server, and asks for nothing at all below performance.tps-floor. At most 4x this many chunks wait at the same time.

true = stop completely when somebody is online. The right answer for a server that is already open to the public.

No effect any more: a chunk is released as soon as it is generated, so memory stays flat over a million chunks anyway.

How many blocks must be ready around spawn before /sedit world tp will let you in. A handful of seconds, not the whole world.

Set the world border to the pregenerated radius when it finishes.

Whether a structure may run commands when it is generated. FALSE by default: a pack downloaded from the internet must not be able to run anything.

The loop for rules that ADD spawns. Rules that replace a vanilla spawn cost nothing and do not use this.

Days of grace before dropping to the free edition when a subscription has just run out, or when the host binding matches nothing we can see (far more often a NAT than a thief).

Asks the ShadowMC licence service (/ip) which public address this server has: behind NAT it is the only way to recognise it. It answers with the address it sees, and nothing about the server is sent. Only when a licence is installed: a server without a key asks nobody. false = never ask.

How long the [ Confirm ] button of a huge edit stays valid.

How long a menu waits for you to type an answer in chat.

Time every command and edit for /sedit diag. Costs almost nothing.
