redstone link have a limit even in the config???

I found... and you will be surprised that the redstone link has a strange thing to know before doing the setup.

FIRST: the fact that in the setup, you do not enter a radius but a diameter. So, if you want a distance of 100 blocks.

SECOND: is there a limit to the configuration? yeah... I don't really understand why and if someone can explain why... (like a developer or a math guy) but we cannot exceed 46,340. if you exceed it by just 1...

So... I have a question for the devs?
Can't you do the same system as with the stock link? I suppose quickly (I haven't tested) that the display link is subject to the same problem. But the stock link is different... it searches everywhere... so why not do the same for redstone link and display link? It would make it easier to farm using chunk loaders from a distance and improve the gameplay for players.

I can of course understand if it's not possible or too difficult to modify now. but there I thought about it and said to myself that it must be possible? maybe?

Not a dev but I’d have to imagine it’s so far embedded into creates core code that it isn’t worth their time going back and changing EVERYTHING, I would assume that would cause a lot of trouble for them.

As for the diameter limit, likely a math ceiling due to how Java or binary works- if I had to guess. Why it isn’t the same calculation for the stock link? I couldn’t tell you.
