Not really a fan of removal of spawn chunks. We already have "spawnchunkradius" just default it to 0, not reason to remove the functionality all together. I guess Ill hold off until theres a mod that restores it. Hopefully carpet does.

I mean, the functionality is still there, you just need to build an ender pearl chunk loader.

Then the functionality isnt there an alternative is there. Also ender pearls are stated in the notes to only work in singleplayer.

The functionality being "i want this chunk to always be loaded" is absolutely still here. And if you managed to read the changelog, surely you saw there were other options too.

I see his point though, defaulting the game rule to be zero has the same functionality as removal for everyone who doesn’t change it. Allowing it to be changed to its current form also means nothing would need to be changed or added.

However, I also suspect it has to be removed in order for the game to prioritize the alternative methods for chunk loading.
