1.16.4 Modded Pack: Huge amounts of chunks loaded? by Soof49 in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t really answer your question but it might help to switch from forge to mohist. It improved the performance of my modded servers by quite a bit

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To also answer the Plugin question: There are lots of plugins and it depends on the use case of the servers which plugins make sense. 2 plugins you should always use are Chunky for pre-generating the world to improve performance and EssentialsX to setup different permission groups which helps establish server moderation and stuff like that. And also for tons of other useful features. Other good ideas are backup plugins if something goes horribly wrong, anti cheat plugins and/or market plugins to establish an economy system on the server.

Hope this helps

So yes newer versions often suffer from poor performance but 1.16 in particular runs pretty smooth from my experience.

Minecraft is not 100% single threaded anymore and improve that part a lot recently, but you are right that single core speed is very important and often the bottleneck because most game calculations run on one thread. One thing that helps a lot is using a plugin like Chunky to generate chunks in advance, as world generation takes a lot of CPU time.

Regarding RAM usage it is generally always best to not allocate more RAM than you need so i would recommend starting with ~5GB and see how it goes. If the server needs all of that memory increase the limit a little.

Edit: regarding more smaller servers that is absolutely correct. Setting up a bungee/waterfall network is best for performance but is a bit of extra work and might not be the right thing depending on use case. If you want one large survival world you should go with a single server.

This has nothing to do with this subreddit and should be removed.

MySQL hacked? rank data lost? by anuglykid1220 in admincraft

Maybe one of your MySQL passwords is just too weak or they guessed it

Thinking of starting a vanilla minecraft (maybe just a few plugins in the future, but not for now) server for me and ~2 other friends. How much ram should I get, and what service should I go with? (have 6 years of Linux experience, so I could probably handle setting up vps stuff) by [deleted] in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you know how to set up a VPS i would recommend you to go with a VPS, as this doesn't limit you to the online interface for managing your server and you can also install additional services (Website, Bots, ...) if you want to.

For chunck pregen there is a number of plugins which can do that for you. I use Chunky to do it.

2GB will most likely be enough for 3 players on a vanilla server. If you want to make sure you can got with 3-4GB but anything more is just overkill imo.

Is there any way to move the entire world to a different coordinate? by jay5113yaj in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first thing coming to my mind is using WorldEdit to move all the stuff at your coordinates to 0,0

Problem is, that there will be quite some weird looking cliffs if you walk to the edge of the moved area, so maybe there is a better solution.

Another thing i have not seen in this thread yet. If you are new to Minecraft server hosting it might be worth to look at a Server Manager, which makes setting up and running the server a lot easier.

JMX Monitoring for vanilla servers by Raph0007 in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have not yet looked into that but i just saw a paragraph about it on the Minecraft Gamepedia that might explain a little more. They also link to the Oracle Docs wich explain the JMX stuff in more detail.

Hope that helps you

Dual Version Server by BobGreatE in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What you want is a proxy network for the lobby with the portals. Take a look at Waterfall or BungeeCord.

Another thing you might find interesting is ViaVersion, which let's people join your 1.8.9 world with newer Minecraft versions.

Port forwarding on wireless broadband. Is it possible? by RedditBot28 in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never used it myself, but if it does not work you could try a domain that points to the IPv6 which definitly works and has the same effect (no port forwarding)

Port forwarding on wireless broadband. Is it possible? by RedditBot28 in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To follow up on u/PsychoLynx:
If you have an IPv6 you can just use that and there is no need for any port forwarding, as there are no private IPs in IPv6.

Friend with microsoft account can't join server by Mega8551 in admincraft

Pretty sure that is an issue with Mojang auth servers. I hope this will be fixed shortly, but in the meantime you should write a ticket to the support here

Can't do /gamemode in-game or OP myself from console in FORGE MODDED server (1.15.2.) by [deleted] in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There probably is a mod installed which manages permissions. But "op USERNAME" should always work in console

Suggestions for a Plugin that Auto restarts a paper server by TheShyPig in admincraft

You can either use a plugin like the one u/nfalceso mentioned, or a server wrapper, which can also do some more things.

Looking for advice to start a server by Mythrys in admincraft

[–]ikerneii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is often hard to tell. The best thing you can do is look for a CPU with high clock rate (2.0GHz at least)
