Frequently asked questions

How do I start pregenerating my world?
Run /pregen and use the autocompletion to build a generation task. Pick a shape and a center such as spawn, then set the size. Confirm the task, and if the mod says it is queued rather than running, start it with the start subcommand. Every parameter has tab completion, so you can step through it without memorizing syntax.
What does pregenerating actually do for me?
It creates the chunks ahead of time, including terrain, ores and trees. Later, when players explore or fly through the area, the game only loads chunks and doesn't have to generate them. That removes most exploration lag and TPS drops.
How big should my pregeneration radius be?
Start with the area players will actually use, such as spawn and the first few thousand blocks around it, then extend later. Larger areas take much longer and use a lot of disk space. Check the unit in the command's autocompletion or feedback before entering a number, so you don't confuse chunks with blocks.
How do I pause or stop a pregen task?
Use the pause subcommand to halt it and resume to continue where it left off. Use cancel to drop the task entirely. Chunks already generated stay in the world either way.
