It seems the nether is being loaded and unloaded routinely by the weather generator. I'm not running a powerhouse of a server and this is creating unnecessary load, not unlike a player constantly entering and leaving the nether (I have confirmed no players are going into the nether when this is happening). Is this supposed to be happening?
I'm unsure if other mods have anything to do with it, but I'll mention that I'm using NetherEx and BoP which add/change stuff in the nether.
I don’t think it is DS doing this. I will not be able to check until I get back into town (a week or so)
Running single player I see Dim -1 being loaded, and then unloaded by Forge. It's not DS. The message about the weather generator is as a result of the dimension being loaded and firing a world load event.
Honestly I have not looked at an unmodded forge install for a long long time. What I do know is that DS does not trigger world loads - it just responds via the world load/unload events whenever Forge fires them.
EDIT: Found this little tidbit: https://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/7tfvr5/netherex_dimension_loading_and_unloading_causing/. Could something be messing with a nether portal somewhere on a periodic basis?
I think a mob going into a portal would cause it to load. In my revelations world I have found things like iron golems, butterflies, etc. in the nether around the gate because of how my build went.
There's nothing at all near the portal, but can a spawned pigman walk back into the portal and cause the world to load? Guess I'll just turn it off when we're not using the nether.
No worries. I would rather hear about things like this then miss a real problem that needs to be addressed. If you find any other quirkiness and you think DS is involved let me know. :)
