* Cached chunks (regardless of if they're in RAM or saved to disk) expire and are deleted after this number of seconds
|
||||
* -1 to disable
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* I would highly suggest leaving this setting disabled (-1).
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* The only valid reason I can think of enable this setting is if you are extremely low on disk space and you play on multiplayer,
|
||||
* and can't take (average) 300kb saved for every 512x512 area. (note that more complicated terrain is less compressible and will take more space)
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* However, simply discarding old chunks because they are old is inadvisable. Baritone is extremely good at correcting
|
||||
* itself and its paths as it learns new information, as new chunks load. There is no scenario in which having an
|
||||
* incorrect cache can cause Baritone to get stuck, take damage, or perform any action it wouldn't otherwise, everything
|
||||
* is rechecked once the real chunk is in range.
|
||||
* <p>
|
||||
* Having a robust cache greatly improves long distance pathfinding, as it's able to go around large scale obstacles
|
||||
* before they're in render distance. In fact, when the chunkCaching setting is disabled and Baritone starts anew
|
||||
* every time, or when you enter a completely new and very complicated area, it backtracks far more often because it
|
||||
* has to build up that cache from scratch. But after it's gone through an area just once, the next time will have zero
|
||||
* backtracking, since the entire area is now known and cached.
