What it does

The mod adds one chunk loader block. Its recipe uses Smithing, and the block is cheap to craft. Once placed, it keeps the chunks around it loaded and does not need fuel. Instead it burns ender pearls at a rate of 8 per real hour, so a player must supply pearls to keep the loader running.

Easy Chunk Loader runs on Fabric for Minecraft 1.19.3 and is a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. Its only required dependency is Fabric API. Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional, and when Cloth Config API is installed, its screen lets players change the mod's settings. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code and issue tracker public.
