Keep TEs Loaded

by ModrinthArchives

Keep TEs Loaded is a Forge server mod that keeps chunks containing at least one tile entity loaded.

ForgeServer-side onlyMIT License1.2.5

What it does

Chunks that hold at least one tile entity stay loaded while the server runs, so machines and similar blocks keep working when no player is nearby. Chests and signs are ignored by the rule, which means chunks holding only those blocks are not held in memory. The mod works through the IChunkLoadHandler interface, offering a middle ground between keeping the whole map loaded and the default chunk loading behaviour of some servers.

Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing it. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. The project was first made by immibis and later uploaded by a separate account, with the original author's consent, for archival purposes. Its first and last update are both dated 2023-06-15.

The mod is published for Forge only, for the single game version 1.2.5, with rev2 as the latest file. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own.

Key features

  1. Tile entity chunk loading

    Chunks with at least one tile entity remain loaded, keeping those blocks active without a player nearby.

  2. Chests and signs ignored

    Chests and signs do not count toward keeping a chunk loaded, so chunks holding only those blocks can unload.

  3. Handler-based design

    The rule is implemented through the IChunkLoadHandler interface, a middle ground between full map loading and the default behaviour.

  4. Archival upload

    The mod is preserved here as an archival upload of the original project, which is no longer maintained.

What the author says

Yet another very unimaginatively-named mod. This one will keep all chunks with at least one tile entity loaded, ignoring chests, signs, end portals, mob spawners and record players. It's just for my learning about IChunkLoadHandler, but I thought someone might find it useful as a compromise between keeping the entire…
