Mod to pre-generate chunks. This is only required on the server.
This mod adds the following command to Minecraft:
1.10.2+:
/chunkgen <zone|radius|stop>
/chunkgen zone <x> <z> <xSize> <zSize> [dimension] [logToChat]
/chunkgen radius <x> <z> <radius> [dimension] [logToChat]
/chunkgen stop
1.7.10-1.9.4:
/chunkgen <x> <z> <xSize> <zSize> [dimension]
/chunkgen stop
Using either zone or radius, you can set shape of chunk generation.
When using zone, x and z define origin of rectangular zone and xSize and zSize, it's size.
When using radius, x and z define center of circular zone and radius it's radius.
x and z are chunk coordinates (integers), absolute (ex: 45) or relative (ex: ~5). xSize, ySize and radius are in chunks (integers).
dimension is an optional argument, which can be used to specify dimension to generate chunks in (integer). Can be also replaced with ~ to define dimension you're currently in.
logToChat, if true will print coordinates of each generated chunk to chat (boolean).
/chunkgen stop
Can be used to stop an in-progress chunk generation.
The config file for chunkgen is in the expected place (config/chunkgen.cfg).
Setting width and height to something non-zero will allow you to generate extra chunks as the world is loading. This will run everytime the world is loaded, however it will not overwrite chunks that have already been generated. There are also no performance hits from doing this.
The value numChunksPerTick dictates how many chunks are generated per Server Tick. The default value is 1. Take care when setting this value as it may cause severe lag if set too high.
Configuration values can be set via the in-game Mod Config menu.
