    Hello!
    im not sure if im doing this suggestion right or not, but im playing with my buddy on Infinity Normal server, and i would like a chunk laoder which would work as the Iron chunk laoder, except yo ucan add one or more people on it.
    For instance, i've claimed the chunk loader and when im online the chunk laoder works, but when i log off the chunk laoder doesn't work right? But my buddy is still online.
    So i would like a chunk loader which would work on two or more people. I have claimed the chunk loader but im offline, however my buddy is online, so the chunk laoder works. Also so instead of just using the 1x or 3x as normal, but 2x multiplier?
    All the chunk loader tickets would go on off my profile, as it is my chunk loader.
    I hope this gets implemented.

    Why not just place another chunk loader?

    that sounds like a bit of a pain in the bottom to implement

    Every chunk loader everywhere only works for the person that placed it. Placing another chunk loader on the top fixes this.

    Yeah something like that. I want to load huge quantity of chunks.
    Edit :Aghh nevermind, it doesnt make any sense when i think about it deeper, if yo uwould use 2x it would use the same amount as 2 chunk loaders...

    We limit the number of chunks you can load to prevent this. Every chunk you load is taking resources from the server. Please don't abuse it.

    Don't worry, i will be watching him, and we won't have a "huge" quantity of chunks and there will be not over-filled :p

    Otherwhise, i like the idea, it's more GroupFriendly, and allow to split role between chunkloading & claim (especially at start, not really important as time goes on, might require too much work for not a huge benefit tho). Nevertheless, if you vote, you have plenty vote ticket, a bit too much imo.

    Why not have a lever on both the chunk loaders? When one person is on they leave their loader on but if there are two people online then One loader can be turned off with a flick of the wrist (lever) and the other stays online. You could also change it up so One day one of you "pays" for loading and the next day another person "pays" for the loading.

    Simple solution with no new creations needed:
    1)Give ur friends trust..
    2) let them put in ur claim iron chunkloaders
    3) u do the same with ur friends claims

    and here u got ur friendly chunkloading system..

    I assume the issue with this is, like he already said, it's not efficient to have two people chunk load the same chunk, they effectively pay double chunkload tickets, because both chunkloaders are running, and are not taking the other into consideration. But yeah, I can see how scripting them to allow more players to "share" a chunkloader might be more trouble than it's worth.

    Because iirc, our chunk loading system is smart and splits the tickets per chunk among the loaders that are loading that particular chunk.

    but if you have an offline and an online loader ontop of eachother, the online is running, the offline is not powered by a redstone signal, do both people's tickets work?
