Re-implement chunk sending, send chunks inside a radius instead of below a count This sends chunks in concentric squares around players. When the radius is hit, it will pad out the radius until a full circle of chunks is loaded around the player. TODO: implement radius-per-tick, send chunks in concentric circles, use radius for player spawning. To set your server chunk radius, change `view-distance` in server.properties. Values are intended to be the same as MCPE render distance values. With matching client and server render distances the chunks should reach the horizon. NOTE: You may notice significantly increased memory usage per player when increasing these values to something respectable. This is normal and expected. A player with render distance 14 for example will cause loading of 600+ chunks. A player cannot however exceed the render distance limit set in server.properties - the server will simply not send any more chunks. Render distance of 8 chunks is approximately 200 chunks. This is roughly equivalent to the original default max-chunks of 192 in pocketmine.yml, but sent in a circle instead of a square. Wait for client to request a chunk radius before ordering chunks Use 8 for default maximum radius (roughly matches old setting of 192) Calculate spawn chunk count from chunk-sending.spawn-radius
