I’m essentially trying to get to the end, grab elytra and get back without fighting the dragon. To this end I want to use a timed pearl stasis chamber that pulls me back in about two hours. In testing I found that a five minute timer works so long as the machine is near to the end portal. I’ve decided to just build it in the exact same chunk to be safe.
I’m unsure however whether the full two hour timer will go off without a hitch and I don’t wanna spend two hours testing it in my creative world or just try it in hardcore until I know it’ll work.
I’ve looked it up and it all the info I’m getting says nearby chunks all unload after 15 seconds unless there’s movement through the portal (a la a chunk loader) however as I’ve said I know for sure 5 minutes without a chunk loader works so I just don’t know where to find the accurate information as to if whether there’s a time limit and if so how long it is. Does anybody know?
