Not generating anything on server
So everything is fine in singleplayer but when I test it on my server (both have the mod) that I set up, LOD's weren't being generated, or if they maybe were it was really slow so I couldnt notice? is there a setting setup guide for servers anywhere I could use to point me in the right direction? Thank you!

Can you share a screenshot of your F3 menu? Lower the gui scale if some things aren't visible
Sure let me grab a snap
it seems to be somewhat genning now I think? for some reason but its not showing progress updates
its doing things
yeah it seems to be generating now randomly which is good 🥲
you can try changing the generation rate limit with this command:
/dh config generation.requestRateLimit
the default is 20, maybe up it to 50
You might need to rejoin the serveram I right in thinking changing this to internal will load structures as LOD's or will it save the chunks as chunks?
!generators
- FEATURES: Complete generation of all LODs with mostly correct structures and trees. Does not save vanilla chunks, and is much faster than INTERNAL_SERVER unless C2ME is installed.
- INTERNAL_SERVER: Generates and saves both DH LODs and vanilla chunks, has 100% correct LODs, because it also saves vanilla chunks it takes the most amount of drive space. Generation speed will suck unless C2ME is installed.
- PRE-EXISTING: generates LODs for all existing vanilla chunks.
let me give it a try
ah so dont goitta change that
Also when you explore chunks the LODs will become more accurate since they will be updated
ahhh I wasn't aware of that
Also !slowgen
bot
Setting it to 50 seems to have made it a bit quicker I believe though I cant really tell
!slowgen
World generation in general is quite slow, if you want to speed it up:
Install Noisium, Lithium and C2ME(DH 2.3.0+). These mods can improve generation speed by a bit, but it will still not be fast.
Increase
CPU Load in Distant Horizons settings for faster generation, but you will experience more lag spikes and stuttering due to heavier workload on CPU.
To see if Distant Generator is really working or not:
1) Check CPU usage while in-game, using Aggressive settings of CPU Load. If CPU usage's hovering around 80-100%, the LoDs are generating in the background.
2) Go to DH settings > Advanced Options > Debug > Wireframe, set Enable Debug Wireframe Rendering and Show World Gen Queue to True.
Enabling both settings will show you the visualization of world gen tasks queued and working on the map (blue boxes for queued tasks, red boxes for working tasks)CPU is only 30% still
do I gotta restart the server after doing that setting?
no
only if you change mods
ah okay, could try upping it to something more then let me try
there's also a bandwidth limit under the common category in the config command
Transfer speed?
yes
ah I have found the preset config
but make sure you have the 3 mods mentioned above installed on the server
I'll install those too, is it fine to be server side only?
yes, those are for world gen
got all 3, should help alongside changing the preset config now, thank you!
F3 still shows a rate limit of 20 so maybe I do gotta restart, but I changed the thread preset to agressive and turned the max data transfer to 0, maybe just gotta wait a while, though it still seems slower than it was in singleplayer but thats probably normal somewhat
