Server Updates and Maintenance Report 1

Good day! Jarelle here,

Today we placed our server into maintenance for 4 hours spanning from 6:00 PM to ~9:15 PM, on Tuesday, December 17, 2024 in an effort to enhance our server performance and player experience.

What’s new

Here are the things we added/changed on the server, hold on tight, because some of the things here are exciting!

  • Changed our server from Paper —> Fabric
    As an effort to reduce lag within bedrock clients, we switched from a regular Paper server into a Fabric paper server. We can report that Fabric has better performance than paper with Fabric using half the RAM (1.49GB -> 2.20GB on Idle) and CPU usage compared to Paper. Although there are no extensive testing to prove whether the performance degredation on bedrock clients have resolved so far, no reports have come so far from initial testing.
  • Added ViaVersion & ViaBackwards
    We have not tested this, however with this, Java players can now connect to the server, regardless of Minecraft version.
  • Removed Dynmap
    Dynmap is currently unavailable on the server due to version mismatches with the plugin and the server as we switch from Paper to Fabric. We are finding alternatives to Dynmap and will update you once we find one.

Note on the World

As we moved from Paper to Fabric, all world files was deleted and was restored from a backup before the maintenance period, with minimal loss on your progress. However, the nether and the end might reset due to issues when importing them as Paper saves worlds differently than Fabric, if such case happens, please contact us via the channels below.
