Overworld unloaded 30 sec after last person logs out

[jermangarc]

Title says it all. Happens only on server. Server unloads DIM0 after about 30 seconds, causing users not able to login into server. I really love the mod, makes the sun move slower without glitching in the sky! Tried it with no other mod installed and running latest Forge1272. Also ran it with Forge1236, same result.

Confirming this, getting the following crash log:

However there's a workaround for perventing this crash, just place a Chunkloader in the Overworld.

I have seen this same problem in SP. Just try going to the nether for 30 seconds or so.. you can't go back to the overworld without a crash because it is unloaded by then,

[jermangarc]

Good idea, didn;t think about that. We already have chunk loaders, I'll have to reinstall and see if it works.

I think this should be fixed by #3. I waited 5 minutes before leaving back to the overworld with no obvious side effects.

Oh cool, thanks for the update For the meantime, keeping a chunkloader in the world is working at the moment.
