Make a guide or feature to using cli to render map offsite

[Toys0125]

The main issue I have is that my Minecraft server is running on a quad-core CPU and it doesn't have the power to render the map while people are currently playing on it. I want the ability to use the CLI on a separate server to render tiles either live or in an hourly-based approach.

Describe the solution you'd like So currently i have the rmstate that tells what tiles that need to be updated and I tried using that with the CLI to update the map, either when the new system comes i won't have to use the rmstate or have bluemap auto-detect when a rmstate.update has been placed that removes the updated titles in the rmstate so when I pull from the current it would be new tiles.

My current process is using Rsync to pull the world files, then the rmstate after every restart. Than I delete the rmstate so it starts new. After the rending, I sync the updated map back to the server.

That's already possible, You don't need to do anything with the rmstate to make the cli update the map:

Just rsync the world-files and then start a cli-render.. Without the -f flag, bluemapcli will only render chunks that have been changed since the last render. (Each chunk has a "modified" timestamp, and when the cli finishes a render it saves a timestamp to the bluemap/web/data/settings.json)

If you start a render every hour you will see the cli will update all chunks that are changed, and nothing more :) Just make sure the render finishes, or else it will try to resume the old render.

If you need support with that, consider joining our discord or reddit :)

Well is it possible to then disable the tracking and render queue on the bluemap plugin but leave the webserver on?
