MCEdit: How do I see which chunks are unused so I can delete?
I am currently using MCEdit 1.5.4.1. I want to use it to take my current Minecraft world and delete chunks that haven't been used by players in order to minimize world size, as well as so that when they are recreated they will generate with the latest features (new structures, etc).
I've decided that the best way to do this is to look at the "InhabitedTime" chunk property. However, I can't figure out how to view this data on a per chunk level so that I can determine which chunks can be deleted. Additionally, is there any way to write a simple script to identify all such chunks for me?
