About Chunky Autopause

From Modrinth

Forge mod to pause Chunky generation tasks unless the server is idle.

Chunky Autopause

Chunky Autopause is a utility mod for the Chunky chunk pregeneration mod. It monitors the server population, pausing running Chunky tasks when there are players online and resuming them when the server is empty.

Obviously, this requires Chunky to be installed.

Commands

/cap enable
/cap disable

Configuration

#Whether to enable automatically pausing Chunky on startup
enableOnStartup = true
#How many ticks to wait until resuming Chunky tasks after the last player logs out
#Range: > 0
resumeWaitTicks = 600

Acknowledgements

Inspired by Chunky Extension for Fabric.
