Check if chunk isn't loaded

I need to spawn an entity in a location, which I believe requires the chunk to be loaded.
The code below always seems to always return true, saying the chunk is already loaded, even when I change worlds to unload the chunk.

Code:

                Chunk chunk = location.getChunk();

                if (!chunk.isLoaded()) {
                    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("chunk wasn't loaded, loading chunk");
                    chunk.load(true);
                } else {
                    Bukkit.broadcastMessage("chunk was already loaded");
                }

Any ideas? Thanks.

 

remember spawn chunks are always loaded so if your testing on a new server, and your spawning the entity within the spawn chunks, it will always return true, try moving atleast 15 chunks away from the world spawn (NOT 0,0) and see if that works.

 

@LeePMC Yeah, I've tried locations far away from spawn as well as the nether world, still returns the chunks as being loaded.

 

when are you checking this? @xDeeKay

 

@LeePMC on command

 

If your spawning your entity before this, then it's probably already loading the chunk to spawn the entity, I can't figure anything out with this snippet of code @xDeeKay

 

@LeePMC I don't think that's the case, as I wasn't able to spawn the entity before using this check, and even so, spawning of the entity comes after the chunk load check. I just find it strange that it returns the else statement, yet it still loads the chunk at the same time.

 

Again... I can't see anything wrong with this snippet of code, the only thing I can think of now is what if you just loaded the chunk you were spawning the entity in even if it's already loaded so you never have to worrie about the problem again
