Is there a way to destroy a region?

[Thumbz]

In short, this: 

CustomPurgeCommand(world) {

  for (all regions in world)

  {  delete region;  }

}

 

 

Right now I'm doing some chunk generation stuff and I'm trying to speed up the process by creating a command that will purge everything with /purge and then reload the generation stuff.

I believe there are some methods that let you destroy all blocks in a given bounding box. Look at World.class.

I searched through that, but it seems to work more with changing the state of blocks.  There's not really anything having to do with regions, and I think that might be dealt with somewhere else.  It's okay though, I can do it manually.

With Java, you can do anything.

new File(DimensionManager.getWorldSaveDirectory()+"/region/r.0.0.mca").delete();//warning: will probably do bad thigns

Nonono...oh god.

Just delete all of the world by setting the state to Blocks.air.getDefaultState()

Wouldn't this replace every block with air?  I'm trying to make it recreate the world to see the changes in chunk generation.

Well that would, well, be a starting point. Then you could from there call some world generation methods. Look around in world generator classes.
