Talk:Chunk format

Deleting Chunks
Hi! I was wondering about getting chunks to re-generate - can I just delete the folders for outlying chunks, then have them re-generate by the engine? I guess the question becomes, are chunk files referenced by any other dat files?

Confusing format
I find some parts of this page confusing, specifically missing type specifications. For example, what's a TAG_Compound? What's its structure? and other questions.

Anyone could make this page clearer when it comes to types?

InGround tag
Could someone confiirm/disprove the fact that the InGround field of arrows, eggs and snowballs controls whether or not the entity is stuck in the ground? I think a tag is missing from the three types of entities controlling what I just said because the entities act differently depending on whether or not they are stuck in the ground (for example, eggs and snowballs disappear if they become stuck in the ground, and arrows stop moving and don't do damage when stuck in the ground).

Entity format
I never seen TAG_String("World") in any entity. I tried all version since Beta 1.2_02. Could someone confirm this tag?

Move to Chunk format
I agree. The info applies to Alpha, Beta, and Release formats. It looks kind of odd being the only subpage under Alpha Level Format. -Codewarrior 12:17, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Missing entityes
The entityes section misses the folloing entityes:

128 or 256
Are they in 16x128x16 or 16x256x16 since the last update???


 * Neither. See Anvil file format. This page is now out of data, although I want to pull in changes from the Anvil file format page here. --Thvortex 21:37, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Merge with Anvil file format
Can we merge the Anvil file format page into this one? This page is a lot more detailed. We could also include a link on the this page that pulls up the older version of the page so one can still easily find what the previous chunk format looked like. --Thvortex 21:35, 8 March 2012 (UTC)
