Setting Minimum and Maximum View Distance Limits

Defining Chunk View Boundaries

To ensure your players have adequate visibility without overloading the server, you must set strict upper and lower view boundaries. Dynamic View Mod expands view distance when player counts are low and the server has extra processing headroom, and shrinks view distance during busy hours.

Configuring View Distance Options

You can define the absolute range that the server can scale between by adjusting the view distance options in the configuration file:

1. Open the mod's configuration file in your server folder.

2. Find Min Chunk view distance. Set this to the lowest chunk view distance you want players to experience during severe lag spikes.

3. Find Max Chunk view distance. Set this to the highest view distance permitted when the server runs smoothly with few players online.

4. Save your configuration changes and reboot your server.

With these boundaries set, the mod will smoothly adjust the active view distance within this allowed window, ensuring view distance never drops below your minimum or exceeds your maximum.
