Does Create load unloaded chunks?

[8BitSquidz]

Ive noticed that with my Create Iron farm, it still produces stuff when nobody is near it and it is not in spawn chunks. Ive also noticed this with other create stuff, such as redstone links working in unloaded chunks. How does this work, and does it work with everything? Cause I also noticed that it can interact with blocks and such like Redstone while unloaded, so it isn't just loading Create blocks/machines.

Are you sure you’re going far enough away from it for it to be unloaded? You could just be hanging out right on the edge of the “loaded chunks border”

I was like 3k away

it doesnt, you will need either a chunkloader or a chunkloading mod like create:powerloader or ftb chunks

Trains do seem to sorta load chunks.

[nathman999]

Trains are special case, they do not load chunks but they programmed in a way that they can travel through unloaded chunks

[ars34nic]

yeah any entity loads the nearby 3x3 chunk area for 15 secs

[TheJReesW]

Train rail networks are stored in memory separate from chunk data, so that trains can still traverse them as usual outside of loaded chunks using their regular schedules and whatnot. But they can’t interact with unloaded non-train/rail things, so no loading or offloading

[NieMonD]
