Cuberite calls this function when a chunk is about to be unloaded from the memory. A plugin may force Cuberite to keep the chunk in memory by returning true.

FIXME: The return value should be used only for event propagation stopping, not for the actual decision whether to unload.


Callback function

The default name for the callback function is OnChunkUnloading. It has the following signature:

function OnChunkUnloading(World, ChunkX, ChunkZ)

Parameters:

NameTypeNotes
WorldcWorldThe world from which the chunk is unloading
ChunkXnumberX-coord of the chunk
ChunkZnumberZ-coord of the chunk

If the function returns false or no value, the next plugin's callback is called and finally Cuberite unloads the chunk. If the function returns true, no other callback is called for this event and the chunk is left in the memory.


Code examples

Registering the callback

cPluginManager:AddHook(cPluginManager.HOOK_CHUNK_UNLOADING, MyOnChunkUnloading);
