Persistent Bits

by oitsjustjose

Persistent Bits keeps chunks loaded through a vanilla-style force-loading mechanic, so machines and crops keep running while players are away.

ForgeClient and serverGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.8.9 – 1.19.2

What it does

Chunks that are loaded with Persistent Bits are force-loaded using the vanilla forceload command, and they reload automatically after a server restart. The mod is focused on that one job rather than on new machines or blocks. Forge is the only loader with files, and the mod runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files cover 1.8.9 – 1.19.2 across 10 release versions, with 2.0.4 for 1.19.2 as the latest. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.

Key features

  1. Vanilla-style chunk loading

    Chunks are kept loaded with the same force-loading mechanic that vanilla commands use, without a separate chunk system.

  2. Automatic reload on restart

    Chunks forced with Persistent Bits load again automatically after the server restarts, so timed machines keep their schedule.

  3. Crops and machines keep ticking

    Blocks in a force-loaded chunk continue to update, which lets crops grow and machines run while no player is nearby.
