Cut Off the save (make save smaller)

Post by DainPiediferro »

i have this save
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwboi4oosgbhr ... 6.zip?dl=0

because the pollution is very huge, i have activated a very big map. now i'm at 209Mb of save file.
i'm using 1/100 of the activated map. so, how do i can cutt off a big part of the unused save?
how di i can delete a part of the save? my saves are going bigger and bigger......in time & space. space is not a problem, but time yes, it requires to me about 20sec to save, and i have to save often.

can someone has a clue to do so?

Place one entity or concrete tile and this chunks (32x32 tiles) will be not destroyed/regenerated.

It's new map generator from [0.16] makes it, I can't (and don't want) to rewrite new map to old one. So, you can place concrete around this lake for saving it. And some another modded entities like ships, bridges and another stuff, whatever.
