Questions about Quadtrees

Hmm, no. for dynamic level generation by the algorithm streaming will not be the best solution. But what you really need is a world rebasing when the player’s coordinates begin to exceed 1-2 tens of kilometers from the center. Working with generation you will need to base everything on seeds so that you do not have to save the entire structure of the world for the player +for correct synchronization if you are planning multiplayer. In this case, you will need to save the chunks ids and data around the player and the generation seeds for different elements of the world. I have never worked with such worlds before, but this is where I would work. Maybe you will find a more convenient solution for yourself.

Also, just to make it clear, I know things about generating the world, I can make complex mathematical functions that will determine data based on seed and position, creating things like biomes, where trees are etc. and I even have idea how I would determine which chunks should be loaded/unloaded (everything from simple double “for” loop to I-dont-even-know-what). What I need is HOW to load/unload and how to save/load (into file) in a way that separates the data into chunks.
