How to fix a corrupt map?

[maikerumine]

Hi!

I have recently noticed that a certain part of my server map when generated causes the server to stop completely and the only way to shut down is to kill the process. The server completely freezes when in the region and was not able to fix with map_unexplore as it rests within the radius.

Is there a special way to reset certain map blocks without activating them?

I don't know what you mean by "without activating" them, but you can /deleteblocks to reset them using the mapgen. Do you have any error messages in the log? I would run out of RAM and I think that's why PC was freezing. For me it turned out to be from activity at world's edge. https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/2610

You should provide more details, on what version, what log says, did you try disabling some mods, or changing back to 0.4.13?

/deleteblocks <pos1> <pos2>
works just fine.
