Chunk Loader

GitHub release (latest by date) GitHub all releases Minecraft

With Chunk Loader Datapack the Chunk Loader is added to the game. With it - surprise - you can permanently load chunks. This means that you can be anywhere in the world, while the chunk in which the Chunk Loader is placed is still loaded.

In order for the Chunk Loader to load the chunk, it needs 3 Redstone Dust per minute. To fill, simply right-click and place it inside. As soon as there is no more Redstone dust inside, the chunk loader stops working and the chunk will be unloaded until new Redstone dust is added.
