Purpose: ServerCore is a mod that aims to optimize Minecraft servers.
Supported use: The mod works on dedicated servers and in singleplayer.
Lag reduction: It includes patches and optimizations intended to improve performance and reduce lag spikes.
Entity activation: Entity Activation Range reduces the number of entities processed by the server and is based on Spigot and PaperMC implementations.
Dynamic checks: Dynamic performance checks can adjust chunk-tick distance, view distance, simulation distance and mobcaps according to tick time and configuration.
Mob controls: Configurable mob spawning supports per-spawngroup spawn rates and mobcaps, with optional rules for reinforcements, spawners and nether-portal random ticks.
Breeding caps: Breeding Caps limit how many mobs of the same type can be bred within a specified radius.
Chunk ticking: The chunk-ticking-distance setting reduces the distance at which chunks perform mob spawning and random ticks.
Commands: The mod provides /servercore reload, /servercore settings, /servercore status, /mobcaps and /statistics commands.
Configuration: Configuration files are config.yml and optimizations.yml in the config/servercore directory.
Default behavior: Changes that can affect vanilla behavior are disabled by default.
Loaders: Modrinth lists compatibility with Fabric, Forge and NeoForge.
