| Jul 16, 2019 at 20:43 | comment | added | Ocelot | So your chunk layout is a 2D grid. What stops you from moving chunks around in the array? You know how to use pointers, right? Make an array of pointers of your chunks, so you can move them around in the array. Then you would be able to displace chunks in the grid in a way that the chunk player is standing on will be the chunk in the center of the grid and then you would be able to load additional chunks at the the edges of the grid when needed. | |

| Jul 16, 2019 at 20:22 | comment | added | Ocelot | There is not enough context provided so question makes no sense to me. Code is irrelevant and there is almost no information related to the structure of chunks and their layout rules. What does "loaded chunks might be seperate and not start at zero" even mean? | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 20:07 | comment | added | user124120 | @Ocelot What do you mean | |
| Jul 16, 2019 at 20:05 | comment | added | Ocelot | A struct? How is your data structured? What have you tried so far? Did you generate chunks yourself? | |
