How To Pregenerate Chunks On Your Minecraft Server

This is what you do if you want to preload chunks on your Minecraft server, preloading chunks is a great way to help minimize performance issues if your server is having trouble loading too many chunks while you’re trying to explore.

Installing A Pregeneration Plugin

  1. Log into the Game Host Bros Panel.
  2. Stop your server.
  3. Go to Tools > Plugin Manager.
  4. Search for the Plugin you want to install, for this example we’ll be using Chunky.
  5. Click Install and Start your server.

Preloading Chunks Using Chunky

Now that you’ve installed Chunky, this is how you begin preloading chunks.

  1. Log into the Game Host Bros Panel.
  2. Go to System > Console.
  3. Set a radius to preload chunks, by typing chunky radius <radius>.
  4. To start the generation type chunky start <world name>.

By default world will generate the overworld, while world_nether and world_the_end will generate their respective zones.

Now Chunky will begin pregeneration, you can track the progress through the server Console.
