Talk:Chunk/Archive 1

Is this to say that, if you die and drop a bunch of stuff, and respawn far away from it, it won't despawn until you go back and enter that chunk? How long after entering a chunk do mobs begin to spawn? Is it essentially pointless to plant trees in areas you don't regularly visit? Sorry for all the questions, this is just very different from how I perceived the game working. MrMatthew 20:55, 7 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Items despawn after about fifteen minutes (I think?) even if you're far away from them. I don't know the answer to the other questions. I think it's time for some experimenting! :D

I know I've seen somewhere where someone said either the radius or diameter of chunks that are "nearby" enough to load. Does anyone have this information still? My Google-fu is weak tonight. Cjc343 11:21, 23 October 2010 (UTC)


 * 128, I think. I read about that in the forum somewhere. PurpleKiwi 01:42, 24 October 2010 (CDT)
