We have an issue were our auto farms arent rendering in properly if we afk because the server render distance is 6 chunks. Im wondering if we could increase the distance for donators maybe? i might donate to just get the increase of render distance. Mostly because of my auto farms.

This idea has been thrown around many times, let me tell you, its a stupid idea. We don't need increased render distance for CERTAIN players, we need increased render distance for EVERYONE. Either it needs to be unlocked so people can set it based on their needs (certain people may want to see farther and have the ability to do so, other's may have bad computers that can only handle a few chunks). This shouldn't be exclusive to donators or staff or whoever, it should just be unlocked like on every other server.

Maybe a small boost, I think last time we tried it we bumped it up to like 8 or 10, or maybe more, and we had major TPS decline, keep in mind this is when we had one of the best (and most expensive) hosts we've ever had. So yes Pres is most likely right, we couldn't handle it. At most we could probably make it 5 or 6 instead of just 4.

@luigiofthebakery knows more about it than I do, maybe he can give us some insight.

FFS can't we all hold like a bake sale or something to increase server funds? I'll murder someone for extra render distance at this point. Hell, I'll eat an entire tree.
