I need a very simple procedure that will return the name of the world folder in windows explorer as a string. I don't know much about coding Minecraft mods as I use MCreator but I'm learning Java in college and have a technical aptitude. I tried this but it just returned the world name.

package com.angelofcreation.creativebackport;

import net.minecraft.world.level.LevelAccessor;

public class GetWorldName {
    public static String execute(LevelAccessor world) {
        return world.getServer().getWorldData().getLevelName();
    }
}

We don't support MCreator here.

Learn Java completely first. Without doing so, you'll likely be confused on most explanations given on this forum since we assume a decent level of Java knowledge is known by modders.

Why do you want this? You should not need to do anything in the world folder.

Since this is a backport, do you have permission to backport this mod from the author (or at least have it from a permissible license)?

Not what I asked, but ok.

"Why do you want this? You should not need to do anything in the world folder."

Why does it matter?

"Since this is a backport, do you have permission to backport this mod from the author (or at least have it from a permissible license)?"
It's not a backport that's just the directory of the java file I'm writing in. I just opened whatever random project I had open to write the code in. And, once again, it's not what I asked.

I mean...it's kinda important since we don't support MCreator help, so it would be rude to not provide support and not tell you why.

Because, as I said, there's no reason for you to directly touch the world folder itself. There are plenty of other systems that allows you to write/read arbitrary data without it.

Apologies for the misunderstanding, but again, it doesn't matter the question if there is a better way to solve it or we don't support it.
