FTB Chunks Mod lets you claim areas in your world to protect your blocks and builds. It also adds a helpful minimap to your screen and a large world map for easier navigation. You can mark important spots with waypoints and even keep your claimed chunks loaded when you’re away.

Frequently asked questions

How do I open the FTB Chunks map?

Press the map keybind (default is M) to open the large world map, and the minimap appears in the corner of your screen automatically. You can rebind both in the controls menu if they conflict with another mod.

How do I claim chunks in FTB Chunks?

Open the large map, then left-click chunks to claim them for yourself. Claimed chunks show a colored border and protect your blocks from other players.

Why can't I claim any more chunks?

You have hit your maximum claim limit, which is set by the server or by your rank/permissions. Ask the server admin to raise your limit or check the config if you're in singleplayer.

How do I force-load chunks so my farms keep running?

Open the map, then shift-click (or use the chunk's context menu) on a chunk you've already claimed to toggle force-loading on it. Force-loaded chunks stay active even when you're far away, but they count against a separate force-load limit.
