Does anyone know of a mod that, given the seed for example, could locally generate chunks so that they can be displayed before the server generates them?
IE if multiple people are exploring and the server’s struggling to keep up, it would be awesome if the client could generate them locally and fill in the gaps locally until the server gets around to generating them proper
(Kinda like how I imagine distant horizons does it)
no there isn’t something like this, you either have to pregen chunks or deal with lag this is a server owner 101 kinda thing.
This isn’t an idea for server optimization though this should work on any server as a client mod
If it doesn’t exist it doesn’t exist but talking about optimising the server is kind of missing the point
