How to enable and edit FTB Utilities chunkloading

The FTB Utilities mod is used in many modpacks but quite often the chunk loading elements are disabled or restricted in server files. This guide will show you the steps needed to make the adjustments yourself. You can always reach out to our support team to open a ticket and we will do it for you!

Enabling FTB ChunkLoading Utilities

1. Remember, to shut the server down fully before editing any configuration files to prevent any corruption that may occur.
2. In versions of FTB Utilities before 1.12, the config was stored in local/ftbuconfig.json.
   In versions newer than 1.12, the config file is in config/ftbuconfig.cfg
   Note: You can edit configuration files through Multicraft's FTP or by using an FTP client to transfer the file back and forth. You can learn more about using in our guide on how to use FTP to upload and download files.
3. Within the config file, scroll until you find the world section and adjust the settings to suit your needs. Dimension IDs can be used to restrict chunkloading to specific dimensions (like the overworld), and chunk claiming can be enabled without the need to enable chunkloading.
   Note: Chunk claiming must be enabled for chunk loading to work correctly.
   
   The following config entries are what you should edit to make it work.

   
   I:blocked_claiming_dimensions <
   >
   
   # Enables chunk claiming
   B:chunk_claiming=true
   
   # Enables chunk loading. If chunk_claiming is set to false, changing this won't do anything.
   B:chunk_loading=true
