1.9+ client does not fully load chunks on 1.8.8 paperspigot/tacospigot server

[ghost]

How can we reproduce it? Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Set view-distance to 2 that on server.propertise & spigot.yml
2. Join with 1.8 & 1.9+ and compare the chunk loading This is 1.8.9 Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ksxOqqp2YOs&feature=youtu.be This is 1.12.2 Video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3vWQkBVFlk&feature=youtu.be

Expected behaviour Should fully load chunks like 1.8.9

ViaVersion Dump https://dump.viaversion.com/f3d3bff36b48d72ff88505ae4c98955d70e60a58a7cf321471b1eea466a7c58d

I also tested with setting view distance with 3, 4 on server.propertise & spigot.yml, but on 1.12.2, it only load 2, 3 like on that video.

Your view distance is too low for things to work properly, we can't really support really low view distances because of client behaviours like this.

@FormallyMyles This issue also happen with default serverside view distance(10). 1.9+ client only load 9 chunks even set render distance to 10 on client side

Can you provide steps to replicate on a clean server with view distance 10?

Ok I will test it later if I have time.
