It seems that it comes from Paper. We'll need to wait for an update.

Z750 (Paper Developer) :

It comes from paper
API isn’t in 1.14.x and requires a deeper understanding of Mojangs rewrite of the chunk system to implement
"Okay, thanks. Are you planning to get this API compatible with 1.14 ?"
It’s planned
There are no ETAs

Maybe implement a more graceful way that detects Paper on 1.14.3 and prevents calling those APIs? This spams the server log quite a lot.

I am aware this is an issue from Paper itself, but seeing how this won't be implemented anytime soon (by the looks of it), perhaps a workaround is in order.

@Kugge Just to confirm, does this mean that BestViewDistance is broken on 1.14.3?

The commit disables it, I assume this is because it has no benefit without the per-player view distance APIs?

I thought it still set the global server view distance based on TPS/ping etc.

[sofianedjerbi]

@Ristovski The API provided by paper allow BVD to change the view distance, and that API is broken on 1.14.X. BVD cannot change view distance at all so it's 100% useless on 1.14.X

[Ristovski]

I see, I thought some of the functionality (like global view distance based on TPS/etc) was still there. Good to know.
