hyChunks

HyChunks pre-generates terrain chunks in your Hytale world so players can travel without waiting on worldgen. Stand where you want the center, set a radius in the admin menu, start a run, pause/continue later, and watch progress in console (HUD/chat optional).

LIGHT mode is safer for live servers; AGGRESSIVE is faster when you can afford the load.

Note: HyChunks loads/generates chunk columns through the engine and force-saves newly generated ones. The NEW counter only rises after a successful disk save. Already-existing chunks show as alreadyOnDisk / skipped.

What's new in 0.1.0

• Square pregen — centered on you at Start; radius in blocks or chunks; optional chunk limit
• Admin UI — /hychunks admin for Control / Selection / Settings
• Progress — console by default; optional HUD/chat with NEW / alreadyOnDisk / skipped / failed, %, and ETA
• Pause / continue — progress persists and is resumable after leaving the world
• Force-save — newly generated chunks written via the chunk saver + flush on pause/finish
• Bound Guard — optional square keep-in zone locked to where pregen started
• Modes — LIGHT (safer) and AGGRESSIVE (faster)

How to use

1. Install the jar into your world's Mods folder and load the world
2. Stand at the center you want, then open /hychunks admin (or /hc admin)
3. On Selection: set radius (blocks and/or chunks), optional limit → Save
4. On Settings: LIGHT/AGGRESSIVE, rate, HUD/chat → Save
5. On Control: Start (center = your position) — Pause / Continue as needed
6. Optional: enable Keep-in zone (Bound Guard) in Settings, or /hychunks guard on

Watch NEW for freshly saved terrain. Chunk files update under universe/worlds/<world>/chunks/*.region.bin.

Bound Guard

• Square keep-in zone from the pregen start center
• Needs an active/paused pregen task
• Escape: /hychunks guard off (cancel confirm also turns it OFF)
