# IpacChunkLoader
\nA simple chunk loader plugin for Minecraft.<\/p>\n
https:\/\/modrinth.com\/plugin\/ipacchunkloader<\/p>\n
This is a simple alternative to fake players, allowing players to use force-loaded chunks in a relatively safe way to keep machines running.
\nIf you need stable AFK and do not want to use highly automated tools like fake players, then consider this plugin.<\/p>\n
### Usage<\/p>\n
Activate a chunk loader by naming an armor stand `ID ChunkLoad N`.
\n– `ID` is optional and is used to name the loader.
\n– `N` ranges from `0` to `10`. `0` loads the single chunk where the armor stand is located; `1` loads a 3×3 area (9 chunks).<\/p>\n
Each naming activates the loader for 4 hours. Renaming can accumulate the duration up to a maximum of 24 hours.
\nThe chunk loader works by setting chunks to be constantly loaded. The loaded area follows the armor stand’s movement and updates every 20 ticks.
\nIt does not trigger mob spawning as a player would.
\nA notification will be sent 2 hours before expiration.<\/p>\n
