 ## what does it do
 MCA selector lite is a tool used to edit [region files](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Region_file_format) of your [Minecraft java](https://minecraft.wiki/w/Java_Edition) worlds.
 This is useful for reducing world size, general world management, perhaps copying chunks from one world to another or various other administrative tasks.
