Chunk Pregenerator question (+Oracle server question)
Heyo, everyone.
I was recently tasked to set up a modded Minecraft server for a small bunch of friends (4 people on average, 7 at absolute most). I don't usually play with mods so I apologize if these are very simple questions. First time setting up an MC server so I'm a novice in all of this.
I set up the full Oracle setup (4 cores, 24G RAM on ARM), running on Forge for 1.20.1, and it seems to work out fine enough.
Unfortunately, I am in Toronto and my users are in south(west) USA, so the ping starts to get pretty high (anywhere from 4000 - 10000ms) given the distance + the mods we have.
Assume for a moment I can't remove any mods.
I've looked into Chunk Pregenerator, and it seems like something that might benefit us given the mods we have.
What is the best way to pregenerate chunks? Some players stay together, but a few go off on their own, is there a way to generate along the edges of the chunks that have already been generated? (I thought expansion would accomplish this, but I am unsure :dead:).
Aside from chunk pregeneration, any basic tips to reduce ping (on an Oracle setup)? I feel like I'm missing some sort of basic network setting for the Oracle server, but I have no idea, haha. Any tips appreciated.
Thank you for your time.
Sorry for the weird formatting and no logs or anything, I'm currently on mobile. :flushedflat:
