SableCat
by Evie_saurr
SableCat is a NeoForge reliability toolkit for Sable sub-levels, covering recovery, backups and safer saving on Minecraft 1.21.1.
What it does
SableCat keeps the command layout that Create-Aeronautics compatibility users are used to, while rewriting the code beneath it. Its aim is to fix root causes in state management and coordinate space calculations rather than work around them, and to add preventative measures such as automatic backups. It is a fork-style successor to earlier compatibility and bug fix work, rebuilt so the fixes sit at the source.
The toolkit covers recovery and removal. Its rescue and purge commands can repair a sub-level whose pose or block content has been corrupted, relocate a sub-level by UUID while keeping its orientation and clearing momentum on arrival, and recover a sub-level from an offline backup. Removal is available for sub-levels confirmed to be nearly empty or unrecoverable after a failed load, and an unconditional removal path exists that checks content first and logs the action with a broadcast to operators. Tracking records each sub-level seen in a session, including its UUID, name, location and last seen time.
Backups are automatic, non-destructive and periodic, kept in a library independent of the world save. Each backup is timestamped, never overwritten, and written atomically. Saving is asynchronous and failures are logged clearly and flagged to online operators instead of failing silently. Touching sub-levels are grouped for saving, and a chain member's save is isolated, so one corrupted sub-level no longer aborts the whole batch. Deleted sub-levels are removed from the running simulation as well as from the on-disk record.
Key features
Sub-level recovery commands
Rescue and purge commands repair corrupted sub-levels, relocate them by UUID and recover them from offline backups.
Automatic backups
Periodic, non-destructive backups are timestamped, never overwritten and written atomically to an independent library.
Chained save isolation
Physically touching sub-levels are saved as a group, and a corrupted member is isolated so the rest of the batch still saves.
Sub-level tracking
Each sub-level seen in a session is recorded with its UUID, name, location and last seen time.
