As far as I know, what you are wishing for is just not possible currently, mojuave. There is a feature in Minetest known as LuaVoxelManip that might be useful to that end someday, however.

Open up another client and log in with a dummy player. Have him sit there while your machines work. Then you can do other stuff.
Haven't tested, but it sounds simple enough to work.

Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2014 06:56you COULD edit your minetest.conf file and increase the values in these 2 settings so that active blocks such as furnaces and Abm's work when you are further away from them:
active_object_send_range_blocks = 3
active_block_range = 2
active_object_send_range_blocks = 3
active_block_range = 2

I do remember there being a way with voxelmanip of force loading areas, I might make a mod which does something like that . (for admins and creative only though)

is there a trick to making it work?
Re: constant chunk load
Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2014 08:47You need the force load privilege, and you need to place the anchor block. Force load is given automatically in single player. See the mod's topic.

I did all that and I placed the blocks then left the area came back and my quarry wasn't running so do I need to turn it on somehow?
