Additional context
Add any other context about the problem here.
I placed the chunkloader at my base and it appears not to work. I tested it by dropping some items, leaving the area and when returning after 10 minutes the items had not despawned. Also tried toggling the chunks and testing.
I'm using MultMC5 as the Fabric Mod loader - Version 0.7.0
Tech Reborn Version 5.8.7 in the Prominence II Modpack. 3.0.10
Minecraft Version 1.20.1
If you need the log, please let me know.
Level <= 31 is required for items to disappear, but the chunks added by the chunk loader are level 33.
wiki
The machine entity is different from the item entity, it is a block entity and can function normally at level 33.
It is possible to set the chunk to level 31 using the
/forceload
command, but this may break the game balance
ZurrTum - Thank you for responding. I was unaware that the chunkloader worked in that manner and I am still unsure what exactly it does. It seems it does something similar to the beacon in Tom's Simple Storage, which allows you to access your inventory from any distance or dimension - depending on the level of beacon - with the use of the wireless terminal. But the chunkloader doesn't have an interface to access anything in the chunks that have been loaded. What am I missing? It's a pretty expensive build to do something I don't know what to do with.
Industrial Chunkloader
The Industrial Chunkloader should keep the chunk they are in loaded so machines will continue to work even if the player is far away. It requires no energy. You can change radius of chunks loaded around Industrial Chunkloader

Toggle loaded Chunks (Radius: 2)
Did one last test. Moved the chunkloader into the chunk with my machinery and tested and it works. I was under the impression from a video I saw that the number 1 setting was the chunk the machine is in and the surrounding 8 chunks. I guess this in not the case. Anyhow, it seems to work, but when I used F3+g, the red mark does not show up. I hope you got a laugh out of my confusion and thanks very much for your efforts.
