Chunk Loader in Minecraft

Chunk loaders in Minecraft keep certain areas of the world active even when no players are nearby. This allows mob farms or crops to keep running continuously, making it ideal for maximizing resource production.


⚙️ What Is a Chunk Loader?

A chunk loader keeps the game ticks running within a zone (usually 3x3 chunks). It can be used in the Overworld, Nether, or End, and is typically built using redstone mechanisms that send items through Nether portals to keep areas active.

🧱 How to Build One


Required Materials:

  • 10 Obsidian

  • 14 Building Blocks

  • 2 Comparators

  • 2 Redstone Dust

  • 4 Droppers

  • 2 Observers

  • 2 Hoppers

  • 1 Flint & Steel

  • 2 Levers


Basic Steps:

  • Choose a location and break 2 blocks in the ground.

  • Build a Nether portal and place the droppers and hoppers according to the design.

  • Connect comparators, redstone, and observers.

  • Cover the components and light the portal.

  • Repeat the process in the Nether.

  • Use the levers to turn the system on or off.

The goal is for items to travel infinitely between dimensions, keeping the chunks loaded.


🔧 Alternatives with Mods or Plugins

If you don’t want to deal with redstone, you can use:

  • The “Chunk Loaders” mod (for Forge and Fabric).

  • The “ChunkLoader” plugin (for Spigot servers).

Both options allow you to load chunks easily using commands or special blocks.
