[1.7.10] Remotely loading a chunk

[FiskFille]

How can I remotely load a chunk, or keep a chunk loaded? I've looked into ForgeChunkManager#forceChunk(ticket, chunk) but I can't seem to figure out how to use it. Could anyone provide an example, or point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hey there in my mod I have a basic one chunk chunk loader and a complex quarry chunk loader that loads the block the quarry is in and the block it is currently digging in order to prevent massive updates when returning to the area. Here are the parts, if you need more help feel free to ask.

 

Chunk loading callback  registered in postinit in main mod class :

 @EventHandler
    public void postInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event)
    {
    	ForgeChunkManager.setForcedChunkLoadingCallback(instance, new AdvancedUtilitiesChunkLoadCallback());
