World Management

Lumo Server automatically creates 5 worlds on first startup using Multiverse and custom world generation configurations.

Auto-Created Worlds

On first startup, the init-worlds.sh script creates these worlds via RCON commands:

World Name	Type	Difficulty	Gamemode	Purpose
hub	VoidWorld	Peaceful	Adventure	Spawn/portal hub
lumo_wilds	Terralith	Hard	Survival	Main survival gameplay
lumo_wilds_nether	Nether	Hard	Survival	Linked nether dimension
lumo_wilds_end	End	Hard	Survival	Linked end dimension
lumo_city	PlotSquared	Peaceful	Survival	Creative plots and building

World Creation Process

The init-worlds.sh script runs on first startup:

1. Waits for server to fully start
2. Connects via RCON
3. Executes Multiverse commands to create worlds
4. Sets world properties (difficulty, gamemode, etc.)
5. Installs Terralith datapack to lumo_wilds
6. Links nether/end dimensions

Init script location: /init-worlds.sh

View script:

docker exec minecraft-server cat /init-worlds.sh

Multiverse Commands

Teleporting

/mv tp <world>
/mv tp <world> <player>

List Worlds

/mvlist

World Info

/mv info <world>

Set Gamemode

/mv modify set gamemode <survival|creative|adventure> <world>

Set Difficulty

/mv modify set difficulty <peaceful|easy|normal|hard> <world>

Adding Custom Worlds

Via RCON

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "mv create myworld NORMAL"

Common world types:

• NORMAL - Standard overworld
• NETHER - Nether dimension
• END - End dimension
• FLAT - Superflat world

With Custom Generator

For PlotSquared:

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "mv create plotworld NORMAL -g PlotSquared"

For VoidWorld:

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "mv create voidworld NORMAL -g VoidWorld"

Terralith Datapack

The lumo_wilds world uses the Terralith datapack for enhanced terrain.

Features:

• 100+ new biomes
• Improved cave generation
• Better mountain ranges
• Custom structures

Datapack location: /server/datapacks/

Installed automatically during world creation by init-worlds.sh.

Using Terralith in Other Worlds

1. Create world normally
2. Copy datapack:

   docker exec minecraft-server cp -r /server/datapacks/Terralith*.zip /data/myworld/datapacks/

3. Reload datapacks:

   docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft "minecraft:reload"

World Inventories

Multiverse-Inventories keeps separate inventories per world group:

• Hub: Separate inventory (adventure mode)
• Survival group (lumo_wilds + nether + end): Shared inventory
• Lumo city: Separate inventory

This prevents creative items from flowing into survival.

World Borders

Set world borders to limit exploration:

# Set 10,000 block radius border
docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "worldborder center 0 0"

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "worldborder set 20000"

Do this in each world as needed.

World Backup

The automated backup system includes all worlds by default.

Manual backup of specific world:

docker exec minecraft-server sh -c 'tar -czf /backups/lumo_wilds-$(date +%Y%m%d).tar.gz /data/lumo_wilds'

Deleting Worlds

Caution

Deleting a world is permanent. Backup first!

1. Remove from Multiverse:

   docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
     "mv remove worldname"

2. Delete world folder:

   docker exec minecraft-server rm -rf /data/worldname

Pre-Generating Chunks

Use Chunker plugin to pre-generate world chunks:

# Pre-generate 5000 block radius
docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "chunker start lumo_wilds 5000"

# Check progress
docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "chunker status"

# Pause generation
docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "chunker pause lumo_wilds"

Configured in: /data/plugins/Chunker/config.yml

Troubleshooting

World Not Created

Check init-worlds logs:

docker logs minecraft-server | grep -i "init-worlds"

Common causes:

• RCON not ready (init-worlds waits up to 60s)
• RCON password mismatch
• Plugin conflict

Manual creation:

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft \
  "mv create worldname NORMAL"

Terralith Not Applied

Symptoms: Standard terrain in lumo_wilds

Fix:

1. Delete lumo_wilds world
2. Restart container (re-runs init-worlds.sh)

Can’t Teleport Between Worlds

Check Multiverse is loaded:

docker logs minecraft-server | grep -i multiverse

Reload Multiverse:

docker exec minecraft-server mcrcon -H localhost -P 25575 -p minecraft "mv reload"

Inventory Sharing Issues

Check Multiverse-Inventories config:

docker exec minecraft-server cat /data/plugins/Multiverse-Inventories/config.yml

Configure world groups as needed.
