❤️ Built for Folia
DynamicViewDistance is built from the ground up for Folia using thread-safe scheduling and modern Java practices.
Unlike traditional implementations, it avoids constant distance oscillation by using configurable hysteresis, cooldowns, and gradual recovery to deliver smooth, stable server performance.
Whether you're running a small survival server or a large network, DynamicViewDistance automatically adapts to changing server conditions so your players get the best possible experience.
