About

This command removes structures belonging to a specific tribe if they fall below a connection threshold. It is commonly used by admins to enforce building standards, prevent low-effort spam builds, or clean up bases that have been partially dismantled and left in disrepair.

Supply the tribe ID and the minimum number of connections required for a structure to survive. Any structure in that tribe with fewer connections than your threshold will be deleted. This is a permanent action, use carefully on live servers, and consider testing on a spare tribe first.
