    I have had many requests to make this thread, and I agree with the point, so I am making this. The player de-render distance (the distance a player is from you before they disappear) is too short. A reason for it being so low is to reduce lag, but the main problems with chunk loading have been fixed so the server very rarely lags and I think it would be OK to increase the distance. I know I am not the only person who wants this - like I said, I was asked to make this thread.

    Increasing the distance would make it much easier to chase people as they do not have to be far from you to lose them. It would also make long range fights better, increasing the use of rifles for sniping.

    Like it. And maybe have regular automatic reboots to prevent lag?

    Yes please. Right now, the player render distance is 3 chunks (48 blocks), or so I've been told. That's not even enough to see one side of a rebel base from the other.

    EDIT: Unless if increasing it causes too much lag. I'd rather have it how it is now than it lagging, and I'm assuming the limit in player render distance is to reduce lag.

    I personally don't like the reboots, I never see a problem when reboots happen. I do agree with the point though, I do not like people getting away just because of this.

    I use the Darkside of the Force to know where players are when they are out of range...

    So Xray?

    Anyway, +1 would help a lot as a sheriff, and a bandit.

    You can adjust your settimgs to render larger.

    Try downloading Optifime and those features are included.

    Also makes a sniper rifle completely useless as you have to get close to the other player if you want to do anything anyway. Having the de-render distance on players, that is. So I completely agree with what you're saying; this needs to be fixed.

    So i would need to install some type of mod to get increased player distance? Would brawl have all players download this or something?

    I believe thats block render, not player render. Player render is decided by the server config. (I think)

    I thought the distance was 32 blocks, that's what I noticed trying to snipe some targets hiding behind different awkward places.

    Servers limit the amount of chunks you can render, so it doesn't matter if you play on far, normal, extreme, etc. Setting your client to render "far" only works if the server allows you to do so as well.
