MC-70850 causes invisible chunk issues in game almost randomly. Two maps demonstrating this can be found by following the link.

Add an option to turn off occlusion culling. The performance impact is very minor and might be nulled by Sodium's optimizations. A way of doing so can be found here(it's a Forge mod).

Sounds like a good idea. I don't have a good understanding of that bug but I think it's what's causing random invisible chunks.

I don't think giving an option to disable occlusion culling is necessarily the way to go. I tested it on my (admittedly low-end) hardware, and it produced a non-trivial performance hit (approx. 35-60 fps -> 18-39 fps).

Disabling occlusion culling is an awful "solution" to this problem, which is that Minecraft's graph traversal method for culling chunks has bugs. Doing so would drastically explode the number of rendered chunk sections in a large number of cases.

Sodium already fixes a few problems in vanilla's chunk occlusion, but ultimately we'd want to replace occlusion culling all together with a faster and more aggressive algorithm.
