Minecraft:Commands/tickingarea

Add, remove, or list Minecraft:ticking areas.

Usage

Up to 10 ticking areas can be defined at one time.

Ticking areas typically load after the Minecraft:world is launched, unless it is marked with "preload". Ticking areas that are marked as preload are loaded before loading other Minecraft:chunks when launching the world.

Syntax

tickingarea add <from: x y z> <to: x y z> [name: string] [preload: Boolean]

Adds a ticking area consisting of all chunks that overlap any part of the rectangle.

tickingarea add circle <center: x y z> <radius: int> [name: string] [preload: Boolean]

Adds a ticking area consisting of all chunks that overlap any part of the circle.

tickingarea remove <name: string>

Deletes the ticking area with that name is deleted.

tickingarea remove <position: x y z>

Deletes all ticking areas that include the point at those Minecraft:coordinates.

tickingarea remove_all

Deletes all currently defined ticking areas.

tickingarea list [all-dimensions: AllDimensions]

Displays the ticking areas in the current dimension. If the optional all-dimensions: AllDimensions argument is specified, the list includes all ticking areas currently defined.

tickingarea preload <name: string> [preload: Boolean]

Queries, marks or unmarks the specified ticking area as "preload" or not.

tickingarea preload <position: x y z> [preload: Boolean]

Queries, marks or unmarks the ticking areas that include the specified position as "preload".

Arguments

A Y coordinate is not actually needed to identify a chunk, because a chunk spans the entire vertical height of the world. Nevertheless, a Y coordinate must be entered where shown in the arguments below. It can have any value, but is always stored as 0.

Template:Argument and Template:Argument

Specifies the coordinates of opposite corners of a rectangular area used to define a loaded area.

Template:Arg desc

For x and z, numbers less than -30,000,000 or greater than 30,000,000 are treated as -30,000,000 or 30,000,000 respectively.

Specifies the coordinates of the center point of a circular area used to define a ticking area.

Template:Arg desc

For x and z, numbers less than -30,000,000 or greater than 30,000,000 are treated as -30,000,000 or 30,000,000 respectively.

Specifies the radius of a circular ticking area as the number of chunks from the center to the edge of the circle. It must be from 0 to 4.

Template:Arg desc It should be between 0 and 2,147,483,647 (inclusive).

Specifies an optional name for a ticking area.

Template:Arg desc

If unspecified in preload mode, queries the current preload value.

Template:Arg desc

Specifies the coordinates of a point within the ticking area(s).

Template:Arg desc

Must be all-dimensions, specifies whether the ticking area in other dimensions should be listed.

Examples

• To define a rectangular ticking area covering the rectangle area from (280, 72, 105) to (328, 78, 130), enter either /tickingarea add 280 0 105 328 0 130 or /tickingarea add 280 0 130 328 0 105.
• To define a circular ticking area named "Homebase" centered on the chunk you're currently in and extending 2 chunks in every direction, enter /tickingarea add circle ~ ~ ~ 2 Homebase.
• To remove the ticking area named "world spawn", enter /tickingarea remove "world spawn".
• To remove all ticking areas that contain the block at coordinates (-200, 72, 1000), enter /tickingarea remove -200 72 1000.
• To list all ticking areas defined in all dimensions enter: /tickingarea list all-dimensions
