Installation

Requirements

Requirement	Version
Server software	Paper 1.21 – 1.21.x
Java	21 or higher

Purpur and Pufferfish are also compatible. Spigot and Folia are not supported.

Download the latest ChunkTicker_x.x.x_1.21.jar from the Releases page.

Copy the JAR into your server's plugins/ directory:

server/
└── plugins/
    └── ChunkTicker_1.0.0_1.21.jar   ← here

Start or restart your server. ChunkTicker will generate its default config.yml on first launch:

plugins/
└── ChunkTicker/
    └── config.yml

Check your server console for:

[ChunkTicker] ChunkTicker aktiviert.

If you see this, the plugin loaded successfully.

Stand in the chunk you want to keep loaded and run:

/ct set

To keep a larger area (e.g. a 3×3 chunk area around you) loaded:

/ct set 1

The radius is measured in chunks. Radius 1 = 3×3 = 9 chunks, radius 2 = 5×5 = 25 chunks.

Your config.yml (including the registered chunk list) is preserved across updates.
