Paper Per World Config

World settings are configured on a per-world basis. The child-node default is used for all worlds that do not have their own specific settings. For more information about how per world configuration of Paper works, see the Per World Configuration Guide. For global config, see the Paper Global Configuration Reference

disable-teleportation-suffocation-check​

  • description: Controls whether the pathfinding of mobs is updated when a block is updated in the world. Disabling this option can improve the server performance significantly, while there is almost no noticeable effect on the game mechanics. This is recommended when there are lots of entities loaded, and you have automated farms or redstone clocks.

seed-based-feature-search​

  • default: true
  • description: Whether the server should check if a chunk's biome (determined by world seed) can support the desired feature before loading it during feature searches. This dramatically reduces the number of chunks loaded during feature searches.
  • note: This assumes the seed and generator have remained unchanged. If your seed or world generator has been changed, features will be located incorrectly.

seed-based-feature-search-loads-chunks​

  • default: true
  • description: When set to false, seed-based-feature-search will not load the target chunk. Instead, it will return the center of the chunk. The more precise location of the feature will be returned as the player loads the target chunk.

This will impact both the /locate command, buried treasure maps, and any other game mechanic that relies on feature searches.

      • hide-durability

monster-spawn-max-light-level​

  • default: -1
  • description: When set to -1, the Vanilla default will be used (=0). Set to 15 or greater to revert to pre-1.18 behavior.
