Is there any way for DH to “know” what chunks are loaded?
Using the /forceload command, you can keep any set of chunks loaded at any distance from the player. This would theoretically allow one to keep certain POI always loaded at full detail level. It’s especially nice for large interiors where shaders don’t interact well with DH chunks.
But, DH will overdraw the chunks no matter what after a certain distance based on the players render distance. So you can keep the chunks loaded, they just won’t maintain full detail.
Is there any way to prevent DH from overdrawing certain chunks? I suppose you could just not generate the DH data for those chunks/remove them from the DH data file for the world? Then turn Distant Generation off of course. But that’s not a perfect solution.
