    So I'm working on my first plugin (oh, gawd, here comes trouble). What I want to do is: based on some events in part of the world, I want to update the text on a sign in another part of the world or even in an entirely different world.

    When updating the sign do I need to check if the chunk the sign is in is loaded? If the chunk isn't loaded, I assume the sign would remain unchanged, so how can I ensure the sign is updated correctly when the chunk is eventually loaded?

    I don't think I want to continually load chunks out in the middle of nowhere just to update signs if no one is around them.

    get the sign location, check if chunk is loaded (or actually load it) and then update sign?
