 About

Progress world cleanup is an automated utility for clearing out blocks and items in a world. It allows for admins to setup conditions to remove and replace blocks with little to no effort.

How does it work?

Progress world cleanup runs in the background of the game using a separate thread from the main game thread. In this thread, the mod scans each chunk at a pre-determined rate. When it finds blocks and items that need to be changed it adds them to a queue. Then on the next tick the main game thread will remove 20 or more entries for modification. This allows the game to continue running without lag while continuing to clean the world.
