How many chunks does a player load?

[Bunni]

Just curious as to how many chunks a player will load around them on Earth Towny?

Hey! So I did some testing and it appears that a player will load in 8 chunks in front of them when looking forward. However, if you are wanting to load in spawners for them to work, spawners will only activate if a player is within 16 blocks of them in any direction.

I hope this answers your question, if not feel free to respond or ask me in game anytime and I'd be happy to try and get an answer to you.

Best,
TeamJacob

Thanks for the info!
One more question, how does the mob stacking work? How far away do spawners need to be so that the mobs dont stack with eachother (If I were to have 2 different grinders but with the same spawners)

From testing before it was around 20 blocks for them to not stack of the same type

Try to have 1 chunk between spawners of the same type so they dont stack
