Bug on trying to move over the edge of loaded playworld.

[Ygarr]

v: 5.2.0
If the world not loaded properly and you stay on the edge of viewable blocks - you cannot move, stuck, cannot return to loaded part of world.
And it is a lot of waiting time need to stay while world began to load. And you wasting your time instead of go further.

Thanks for reporting!

This seems to be another instance of the well-known "world gen is too slow/performing badly/misbehaving". This is regularly happening during play tests as well. The severity/extent varies drastically on different machines.

We need to collect all the info we can get on this at one place at some point to really dig into what is happening here.

As a "quick fix" sometimes changing the rendering distance helps to re-generate the chunks (you can easily change it with Page Up/Page Down, I think).
