Introduction
This plugin is installed on all UniversalCraft Paper servers.
The Dynmap plugin provides a visible map of all worlds that can be viewed in a web browser. The map displays all generated chunks within a world and shows where currently logged in players are located.
Dynmap is also aware of the WorldBorder plugin and will display the configured border on all world maps.
Disk Space Usage
Dynmap is a truly amazing piece of work. It’s usefulness, popularity and extensibility are self-evident given the number of other independent plugins that can interact with it to add their own informational layers onto the world maps. Running Dynmap on your own Minecraft server would certainly be a well received gameplay upgrade for your players. There’s only one problem with adding Dynmap to a Minecraft server. Your disk space requirements will go through the roof!
Dynmap allows you some control over the amount of storage space that the maps it generates will need by way of the “deftemplatesuffix” property as defined in the configuration.txt file within the plugins/dynmap directory. This property makes little difference to the default two-dimensional “flat” maps that this plugin displays, but is much more apparent on the isometric “surface” maps:
At UniversalCraft, we always want to provide the very best experience for our players, so all of our servers are configured to generate “hires” maps. We have experimented with different WorldBorder radii for our worlds and have measured the following maximum disk space requirements as the border of a world increases:
| OverWorld Border Radius | Disk Space (hires) |
|---|---|
| 500 blocks | 783MB |
| 1,000 blocks | 1,056MB |
| 2,000 blocks | 3,723MB |
| 5,000 blocks | 20,035MB |
| 10,000 blocks | 73,372MB |
| 20,000 blocks | 284,716MB |
So, by the time that you’ve expanded your world border even to just a fairly modest 20,000 block radius, Dynmap is already going to need more than a quarter of a terabyte just for storing the pre-rendered “hires” map tiles!

Resume all map rendering.
/dynmap purgemap <WorldName> <MapName>
Delete all the pre-rendered map files for the specified map and world.

Clears the tile update queue, preventing any outstanding areas of the map from being updated.
/dynmap purgeworld <WorldName>
Deletes all previously rendered map files for the specified world.
/dynmap radiusrender <Radius>
Attempts to render at least a radius block area, centered on your current location where you issued the command.
/dynmap radiusrender <Radius> <MapName>
Attempts to render at least a radius block area, centered on your current location of the specified map.
/dynmap radiusrender <WorldName> <X> <Z> <Radius>
Use this command to render a specific area of a map, centered on the X,Z coordinates specified.
/dynmap render
Re-render the one tile of the map where you are standing.
/dynmap updaterender
Attempts to render tiles that need updating, starting at current location, for all maps. Stops at edge of map or at tiles that don’t need updating.
/dynmap updaterender <MapName>
Re-render tiles that need updating, starting at current location, for the specified map. Stops at edge of map or at tiles that don’t need updating.
/dynmap updaterender <WorldName> <X> <Z>
