I'm working on a heavily modded gamemode type server. The last post regarding force wipes was a year ago, and there were some unanswered questions. If you can answer any please do:
  1. If I use a custom map, is it affected by force wipes?
  2. Are official custom maps (Hapis Island) affected by forced wipes?
  3. With a procedural map, if my players never go around the naturally generated world (and instead man-made structures), can I simply revert back to that map on a force wipe? I've read reports from ~3 years ago that doing this "caused problems" but they didn't specify what problems.

My end goal is to keep the same map because:
  • I will have many man made structures
  • I'll have many areas and entities set up for certain functionality via plugins. Re-creating all of this every month would be tedious and time-tasking.
I know copy and paste exists which could aid in the first point, but not the second.

Thanks for any help!
