World size on disk

Jebblue · Mar 20th 2016

Hi,

I use Git to backup my game worlds in various games. I noticed that the save game world seems really small, less than 1 MB, is this correct? Here's what the contents look like, is this the right world folder?

JebblueLandRW.db worldParts/

$ du -sm .
1 .

Thanks

Yup! The save data is very small from what I've noticed. The world itself is generated from seed so the database probably only needs to record changes made to the world and objects placed.

Thats what I think too.Although I have built tons of stuff,my world file is only 11 Mb.

Im building like a maniac.Love this game.Lots of small block detail.I edited the terrain alot.I believe thats mainly why.
