"TypeError: Cannot read property 'position' of undefined" with setBlock() if the position is greater than chunkSize

Cannot use game.setBlock(...) to create blocks outside of visible chunk range.
Game config:

 {
    chunkDistance: 1,
    chunkSize: 16,
     ...
}

To reproduce:

// tower with different textures
var tower = [
        1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
        1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
        1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1,
        1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1
      ]
tower.forEach(function (item, i) {
  var pos = [1,i,2]
  console.log(pos)
  game.setBlock(pos, item)
})

The last log prints [1, 16, 2], then error:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'position' of undefined

This can also be reproduced via the console after the game has been fully initialized.
See https://github.com/vladikoff/voxel-test-playground for an example of this issue.

Start by reproducing the issue with game.setBlock() using chunkSize 16 and positions beyond the visible chunk range, including [1,16,2]. Trace the setBlock() path to find why it accesses an undefined object; done means blocks outside the visible range no longer cause the TypeError and the supplied tower example completes successfully.
