    Claim Downloader

    One command to get your claim from the server into a single player world.

    Why?
    • Continue playing when the server shuts down
    • Test setups and debug systems local with access to cheat/game mode
    • Keep playing while being offline (client -> server sync not allowed, but it allows heavy planning)
    Resolves
    • Need for manual base downloads on server reset
    • Base downloads while server is running which are not offered due to work involved
    • Possible reduction of server issue reports due to easy local testing
    Advantages
    • No client restart required
    • No need for fiddling around with the files and getting them to the right place
    State
    • actively being worked on, basic features working:

    I do not feel that it would be neccesary to have this, especially the uses you could have to strain the server, say some greifer downloads their base like 60000 times, or has multiple people do it, the planning and the like part, is easily done, you just open up a superflat world and build up the terrain using screenshots, the base download while server isn't running part, that is a problem as if someone is away and there is an announced world reset soon, and they can't come online to get it, they can no longer get the base download if they weren't there before the reset, so in the end all you'd still have to have lots of work involved trying to find their base

    I expect Slind has thought this through and would either allow e certain amount of downloads per day etc. or have a restriction on the amount of times you would be able to run the command.

    While you are correct a super flat world could just as easily allow you to test, if you had to fit a certain setup into a small area of your base on the server, this download would allow you to test the setup and work out how to fit in in without the need for rebuilding your base in single player or use schematica.

    I'm sure we would still allow players to download there bases via a forum post on server shutdowns too, but this would reduce the load on us as not as many would require us to still get the download for them, it would also allow players to get it quicker without having to wait for us to get the downloads as the plugin would do it for them.

    Maybe an extra feature of the plugin could be a base tracker type command that makes it so it's easier for us to find other players bases or get the plugin to save them into a file on the server ready for us.

    im all for it, however im also with chugga, so unless theres a restriction of downloads per day then i would like it to stay the way it is, however if there is a way to restrict it, then im all for it. ive been needing a good way to plan out my bases, and building it in single then translating it to server takes way too long

    I feel this would be a great idea. But it would have its downsides, of which,
    Strain on the server: It could cost the server more resources.
    Spam: Unless (like mentioned above) there was a limit set IE, certain number of downloads per server. It could cause issues.

    Other than these issues its a great idea all in all.

    Don't worry about strain. Even without a limit/cooldown you would probably never notice it if done right. We have plugins in place that do a lot more heavy lifting constantly than this would do when it is running.

    theoretically they could get a gigantic claim and spam it and it'd take up several hundred times more than those plugins...

    Personally I love the idea. I know there have been certain cases where I have wanted to test an item to make sure it performs how I think it should or fits in with my current base, but I don't want to go through the process of starting over. Especially on servers that take a while to get going, like Skyfactory.

    how about something as simple as a cooldown period?
    only possible to get claim download once every 24h or something to that effect..

    Thats a good point @Tabsz
    Will this work with Islands? As they don't work on the same system as Claims?

    Just wanted to throw my two cents in here, and say that this idea is amazing.

    My concerns are similar to ones already said and addressed, such as server strain.
    Beyond that, this seems like a awesome idea, and would possibly even help with the amount of time staff has to put in handing out base saves, like they are for DW20 now.



    Edit was for a typo, oops.
