      Hello, while researching issues with my world (upgraded with every major version since 1.8) and certain tools (Mineways, Overviewer), the Mineways creator discovered that several chunks in my world contain an Integer data-type for certain fields, while this field should be a Byte data-type (see attached screenshot).

      This inconsistency does not effect my gameplay (as far as I can tell), but does effect the use of mca file based tools, maybe even your own code, creating rare-case-issues.

      Revisiting the chunk does fix this, but my world is big after all these years and revisiting isn't a realistic option. Is it possible fixing this can be added to the Optimize World/forceUpgrade?

       

      Thank you in advance

      Z.
