pandorabox spring cleanup 2026

hey everybody, i know i'm a bit absent lately from pandorabox and luanti. it is mainly due to more pressing real world things. one maintenance related thing that really needs to be done though is running the mapcleaner again, the server is growing towards the 100gb mark and really gets bulky in terms of maintenance and server-storage. i let the mapcleaner run in a restored copy of the main world (a few weeks old by now) and the reduction is pretty substantial: from 75gb to 28gb! the procedure is the same as last time: every chunk not in the neighborhood (2 chunks distance) of one of those nodes in https://gist.github.com/BuckarooBanzay/713021f6f5b88402985ba12258f5909f gets removed. the results are visualized here:

there are a few spots that had trouble rendering (due to a mapblock with unexpected data mostly) but they are still present when connecting with the luanti client. feel free to connect to the cleaned test-server at test.pandorabox.io, take a look around and let me know if there is anything missing. also: the list of "protected" nodes is open for discussion, suggestions welcome :)
