[1.11.2] How to update chunk

[WildHeart 0]

Hi, how to update the chunk if it was unloaded?

What problem are you trying to solve?

[WildHeart 0]

I have a mod that has a mechanism, this mechanism is enabled when it loads your chunk, but I need to remove it as on my server logs are created. It doesn't mention ChunkEvent.Unload / Load or ForgeChunkManger. So, I need more ways of loading the chunk which I don't know. Thanks!

Accessing a block in an unloaded chunk (through World#getBlockState for example) will load that chunk (and then immediately unload it, since it is not needed). However you should avoid doing this.

I have no idea what this is supposed to mean. A server always creates log files. Please clarify.

Oh, sry, it's a stupid translator. "I have a mod that has a mechanism, this mechanism loads chunk when is enabled". I know that it is possible to load the chunk using method getChunkFromChunkCoords, but what else like this can cause a сhunk loading or tileEntities update in the vicinity?

[diesieben07 6103]

You want to keep chunks loaded, regardless of players being nearby? Like various chunkloader blocks from various mods do? Look at ForgeChunkManager.

Not exactly. I know chunk loaders: ForgeChunManager, ChunkEvent.Load/Unload. But there are still vanilla ways I don't know about. That's what I'm asking.

[diesieben07 6103]

I have no idea what you are asking.
Please state the concrete problem you are trying to solve.

How to update tileEntity when the player is not in the vicinity?

[diesieben07 6103]

Define "update". Do you want ITickable#update to be called on your TileEntity? Do you want to change data in the TileEntity? If so, how often and why?

I want to disable this in mod. It is necessary not only in one tileEntity but also in the nearest in a chunk

[diesieben07 6103]

You want to disable... what? Stop being vague, please.

This is not even a complete sentence. What is necessary? Why?

I want to disable loading chunks in mod.

That is not possible. Do you want there to just be void when the player get's near such a chunk`?

I think he's trying to say that: "My Entity is keeping the chunk loaded, and I don't want it to do that. How can I make it to be loaded only, if the player is within X chunks?"

Entities do not do that by default.

@WildHeart If this is the case, then you are doing something to keep the chunk loaded. Stop doing whatever this is (you have not posted any code, so no more help can be provided).

Not entity, this is tileEntity

[diesieben07 6103]

Same answer. TileEntities also do not keep chunks loaded by default.

I know, but what can be in it that can cause?
