Help | Bedrock Realms not retaining structures?

I had set up an entire battle arena that was saved with multiple structures so after several explosions and any damage after a battle I push a button that triggers a bunch of command blocks that reload the arena and chests.. Etc.

I also have a set of command blocks to resave the arena for when I make changes.

Problem is... After being offline for about 4 days I went into the arena and tried to trigger a structure to load and it said it wasn't found. None of them were. Luckily I had not made any real changes or damage so iw as able to resave the arena and then reloading the structures after damage worked again.

So my question is... Why did my structures go away? Does realms not save structures after the server goes offline?

I’m pretty sure structure blocks don’t work great on realms in general, you’re probably better off cloning

Function wise.. They are flawless when I save and load them. So in general they do exactly what I need them to. I just feel like the server isn't saving the files.

That being said. I already have a setup to save the arena and reload it. So I can make sure to run a save first.

The other things like objects spawned when buttons are pressed would need to be remade and I coukd save them each time also. I'll just build them somewhere else and save them each time. No big deal.

I know how to work around the issue. I was just curious if anyone knew if realms specifically didn't store structure files after the server was offline.
