Persistent Bits Mod — Reference
Blocks
The mod adds a single primary block that handles all chunk-loading functionality.
Chunk Loader
The Chunk Loader is the heart of the mod. When placed, it immediately begins keeping the surrounding area loaded in memory.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Hardness | 3.5 |
| Resistance | 3.5 |
| Tool Required | Pickaxe (Iron or better) |
| Luminance | 0 |
| Flammable | No |
Behavior: * Automatic Loading: Once placed, the Chunk Loader will automatically re-load its assigned chunks whenever the world or server starts up. You do not need to visit the block to "kick-start" it. * Security: By default, the block is tied to the player who placed it. This prevents other players from breaking or moving the loader on multiplayer servers, though this can be toggled in the configuration. * Visual Feedback: Right-clicking the block will toggle a visual indicator (smoke particles) that appears in the center of every chunk currently being kept active by that specific loader.
Recipes
The Chunk Loader is an end-game utility item, and its recipe reflects its powerful ability to bypass standard game limitations.
