Description
Project Summary: Chunk Loader Generate
Developer: MiilhoZinho
Platform: Hytale Early Access (Launched Jan 13, 2026)
Overview
Chunk Loader Generate is a high-performance server-side plugin for Hytale designed to pre-generate world terrain. Inspired by the "Chunky" mod from Minecraft, it allows administrators to force the world generator to render and save chunks within a specified radius, significantly reducing exploration lag for players.
Key Features
- Square Spiral Algorithm: Generates chunks starting from a center point and moving outwards to prioritize immediate play areas.
- Async Processing: Runs on background threads to ensure the main game loop remains smooth.
- TPS Throttling: Automatically pauses or slows down generation if the server's Ticks Per Second (TPS) drop below a healthy threshold.
- Persistence: Saves progress to a
session.jsonfile, allowing the task to resume automatically after server restarts. - Administrative Commands:
/chunk-generator radius <n>/chunk-generator start <x> <z>/chunk-generator pause
Technical Stack
- Language: Java 25.
- UI Framework: NoesisGUI (XML-based) for real-time progress overlays.
- API: Hytale Server API (utilizing
WorldManagerandLoadStrategy).
