Restoring a world help

I am making a plugin where people like fight and blow up stuff, but i want the world to restore after the match, i have no idea how i would do this.. Any ideas? any would be helpful, also, please post code, just you telling me to do stuff wont help me since i have no idea how to do this.. THanks in advance :/

 

You might want to try making a plugin request

 

I need to implement it into my plugin though :/

 

I will work on it

 

I tried Bukkit.unloadWorld("test", false); trying to make it not save the world i change, but it didn't work, the world was saved :/

Okay Update:
Putting

Code:java

 
Bukkit.unloadWorld(Bukkit.getWorld("test"), false);

in onDisable then restarting the server made the server not save what i did, but it didn't work for onEnable.

Nvm

anything?

EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.

 

Still making the plugin

 

Two main possibilities:
- store a list of all modified blocks and their original state, then restore the world from that list
- make a hardcopy of the world files and restore them by copying over. might require a server restart but is more reliable

 

Could you show me how to do these with snippets?

 

for #1 look into the MobArena code, which does this
#2 would require a batch/bash script which restores the world folder on server exit and then starts it again
