Frequently asked questions

How do I know if Chunk Shield is working on my server?
Check your server logs for Chunk Shield startup messages when the server boots. You can also test by placing heavy blocks or spawning mobs in one chunk—if they're rejected or limited, the plugin is active and enforcing its rules.
Why are my minecarts disappearing or not moving?
Chunk Shield limits how many minecarts can exist close together to prevent lag. If you're hitting that limit, spread your minecarts across different chunks or increase the distance between them.
Can I keep my named pets safe from being deleted?
Yes—any mob with a custom name tag is protected from entity cleanup by default. Name your pets using a name tag and they won't be removed when the server cleans up excess entities.
My mob farm stopped working. What happened?
Chunk Shield limits how many mobs can gather in one area to prevent lag spikes. If your farm exceeds the mob density limit for that chunk, new mobs won't spawn or will be removed—consider spreading your farm across multiple chunks.
