ResetWorld
ResetWorld is a Fabric server tool that lets an operator delete the current world directory with one command and generate a fresh one on the next start.
What it does
Running the resetworld command deletes the current world directory on a Fabric server, together with the associated player data. The command takes effect immediately and gives no further confirmation, so the deletion cannot be undone. Backups should be made before it is used. After the command is issued, the server stops, and the operator must start it again manually before a new world is created.
The mod is aimed at server administrators who need to reset a Minecraft world, such as after an event competition, when preparing the next round of a speedrunning server, or when a hardcore multiplayer world must restart after a player dies. Test environments with datapacks, mods or plugins can also be cleared quickly. The code is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Recursive world deletion
The resetworld command removes the whole world directory, so no files need to be cleared by hand.
Immediate execution
The command runs as soon as it is entered, with no additional confirmation step.
New seed on restart
After the server is started again, a new world with a new seed is generated, letting a fresh attempt begin.
Hardcore reset
A hardcore multiplayer world can be restarted after a player dies by running the command.

How it compares

Multi Server Delete is client-side only, uses the MIT License and is not open source, and it works on 1.21.4. Multiplayer Hardcore is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and targets 1.21. ResetWorld does not back up the world, so backups must be made separately.
