Is Distant Horizon safe for survival servers?
Hello, is Distant Horizon safe to use in bukkit servers? for example, if I go and delete Distant Horizon, will it corrupt my entire world, does it touch anything about the world, if I use it, does it mean my world will only work if distant horizons is installed?

You can remove and add Distant Horizons as many times as you want.
Distant Horizons does create it's own files that it uses, but those are just ignored when the mod is not installed.
Okay good, so it can't mess up the world?
just to be clear
If distant horizons is not installed on the server and only client side, DH would have to accidentally trigger a zero day for it to corrupt the server
Which is, quite unlikely
If it's installed on the server, it could in theory do harm, which is why it's always good to do backups, but I've never heard of that happening so I don't think you need to be afraid of that.
The chances are low as it never happened but could in theory
Like something needs to go really wrong with your hardware to cause things to be corrupted but at that point it isn't really DH's fault
Just make a backup in case and have fun
Alrighty, I hope that doesn't happen then, lol.Will do the backups thanks
