Because activity only happens in active and adjacent chunks. stuff outside of that is effectively in stasis, or in the case of entities outside of explored zones, doesn't even exist yet.

do you have a solution to this

Stay near the pigs.



Seriously though, there's limitations to what the game can do. If it was expected to simulate every entity and all their actions across the entire world at all times....we wouldn't be able to get a computer to run the game.

Yes and no. Crops still grow while you're gone. Granted that boar breeding is not as easy to simulate as (current timestamp - seeding timestamp) but there are ways to try to "fake it".
