# KeepChunks KeepChunks allows you to select chunks to keep them loaded in the Minecraft server memory, even when there are no players around. This can be useful for large redstone circuits, minecart railroads, commandblock systems and even for reducing teleport lag. # Key Features * **Keep as many chunks loaded as you want;** There are no limits whatsoever! * **Easy to use and set up;** Simple and clear commands and permissions! The installation is simply drag-and-drop! * **Lightweight;** KeepChunks is designed to be as light on your server as possible! * **Extremely powerful;** Load hundreds of chunks at once using commands in-game, through the console, using command blocks, and even from rcon! * **Works on most recent Minecraft versions;** Older versions are also supported through previous plugin releases. * **Railroads;** Mark all chunks following a railroad with a single command! * **Supports WorldEdit and WorldGuard;** for even easier ways of loading chunks! # Commands & Permissions **/keepchunks** *(/kc)* Main command. Shows basic information about the plugin. **/keepchunks help** Displays a list of available commands. keepchunks.help **/keepchunks reload** Reloads all configuration files. keepchunks.reload **/keepchunks list** Lists all currently marked chunks. keepchunks.list **/keepchunks chunkinfo*** (coords | current | worldedit | worldguard ) Gives you information about specific chunks. keepchunks.chunkinfo **/keepchunks keepchunk*** (coords | current) Allows you to mark a single chunk. keepchunks.keepchunk **/keepchunks keepregion*** (coords | worldedit | worldguard ) Allows you to mark multiple chunks at once. keepchunks.keepregion **/keepchunks keeprail** (coords | current) Allows you to mark chunks following a railroad. keepchunks.keeprail **/keepchunks releaseall** Releases all currently marked chunks. Restricted to console by default. keepchunks.releaseall **/keepchunks releasechunk*** (coords | current) Allows you to release a single chunk. keepchunks.releasechunk **/keepchunks releaseregion*** (coords | worldedit | worldguard ) Allows you to release multiple chunks at once. keepchunks.releaseregion **/keepchunks releaserail** (coords | current) Allows you to release chunks following a railroad. keepchunks.releaserail * These commands require chunk coordinates to be used, instead of regular position coordinates. Try our chunkinfo command or use the F3 debug menu in Minecraft. **Get notified of new KeepChunks updates** keepchunks.notify.update **Grant all permissions** keepchunks.* # Initial Setup To start using KeepChunks, simply download it, drag the file into your plugins folder and restart your server. **That's it!** You can now login to your server and type '/kc help' to get an overview of the available commands. A configuration file has also been generated, which is located in '/plugins/KeepChunks/'. # Dependencies These plugins are not required, however they do extend the functionality of KeepChunks: * [WorldEdit](https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/worldedit) (7.0.0 or newer) * [WorldGuard](https://dev.bukkit.org/projects/worldguard) (7.0.0 or newer) # Important Notes * License and terms are located here. * KeepChunks utilises bStats, which means that some statistical information is collected and sent to bstats.org. * The most common server implementations like Spigot and Bukkit are supported, however Paper is recommended for the best experience. * Running an older Minecraft version? Simply download a version of KeepChunks which suits your needs [here](https://github.com/geitenijs/keepchunks/releases). * When marking a redstone system, a minecart railroad or a mob farm, make sure to mark a couple of chunks around the location as well! Example * It is not yet possible to use this plugin for mob spawning and crop growing due to limitations in Minecraft. This requires chunks to "tick", which is currently not possible to replicate. A players needs to be within a 128 block distance for these things to keep running. * If you're experiencing issues or crashes with KeepChunks, try changing "period-in-ticks" and "load-threshold" to -1 in your bukkit.yml.
