[Experimental] - Super Flat World Chunks Being Deleted

When loading a superflat world from a previous beta that had caves and cliffs experimental features turned on, any previously created chunks have been deleted.

It appears that the old world has been shifted down 64 blocks into the void, which means the lower 64 blocks of the old world have just been deleted.
Update 1.17.40.21:

  • While the world now loads old chunks, all block data hasn't been shifted down properly, all signs, chests, lecterns, etc. have lost their data.

Steps To Reproduce:

  • Load any super flat world that had caves and cliffs turned on

  • The world will have several deleted chunks

Expected Behaviour:

  • Superflat worlds don't get deleted

Observed Results:

  • Superflat world chunks from old betas get deleted

The same thing happened to me on my realm. Chunks just dissapeared.
Also, I never used beta, so....

I spent hundreds of hours on a pixel art and city world with my friends, and now only the top of buildings and pixel arts remain. 

Luckily, I have a backup of it that I have not loaded in this update. Hopefully they fix this soon so I can play on it again. 

I was working on a modded minigame and the entire thing destroyed itself because of this glitch.
everything was gone

Same thing happened to my world, I hope there is a fix for this in the near future.

 

New update is now out, the bug if fixed. Even if you didn’t make a backup your world will be fixed

The holy Jerusalem was destroyed because of this. We will take it back...

and not use experimental features on it again.
