Stop DH from working on a server?
Hi, I run a server and I was just wondering how I can stop DH from working in my server. There is a creeper farm in the ocean and the farm is really tall so players could see the build from far away.

Have you consider removing Distant Horizons from the server?
Also, Distant Horizons is always enabled. You have to remove it from your mods list if you need to disable it.
No I mean for other players, I thought DH is client sided? The server doesnt have DH installed
like if the other players see the build from afar
yea you cant stop others from using dh
ah unfortunate
You can install DH on the server and set the CPU load to minimum and then manually set the thread count to 1 and runtime % to 0.01, make sure realtime updates are enabled
That still won’t disable DH, but if I understand how DH works at the moment, that should make generating new chunks painfully slow
Normally the clients generate LODs for the chunks inside their vanilla RD, but if the DH is detected on the server and realtime updates are enabled, they will stop all local generation as they think they will get the LODs from the server, but the super low server side settings won’t generate much
The drawback are that you would be a bad person for breaking DH for other players
And that is someone is patient enough across multiple months they can get the server to send them LODs from across a great distance just by staying AFK
Hi, I’m not sure where the settings are at for the cpu load and thread. But I do see in the config that there is a max render distance, it’s defaulted at 1024, if I change it to something like 256 it should restrict their render to 256 blocks right?
The max render distance is only for the realtime updates
Client can still request LOD from thousands of chunks away, and as long as DH will have the resources it will try to generate and send this LOD
At least for the mod version
Plugin has different ways of limiting stuff
I see thanks
