View and simulation distance
How many chunks around a player the server sends and keeps active for them.
m.player.view_distances
In a flow
“When a player uses a command → Answer: You see {node.v.view} chunks.”
When a player uses a command → Answer: You see {node.v.view} chunks.
What it does
How many chunks around a player the server sends and keeps active for them. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 2 values later steps can use. Find it under Players in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when the flow needs to: how many chunks around a player the server sends and keeps active for them.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire
- Player Player
-
Leave unwired for the player who started the flow, or wire one in, like Player from When a player joins.
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a player. e.g. Alex
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.
Values it gives
- View Number
-
Chunks sent to them. e.g. 10
If it's empty: Empty when the step didn't make one (it stopped early or was skipped); steps reading it get nothing.
